Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card
$979.99 at Amazon
While the listed price of $979.99 matches the MSRP, it's worth noting that this card is actually priced higher than it should be. The reference model of the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti should retail for around $750. The premium on this Gigabyte model comes from its WindForce triple fan cooling system, which typically adds about $50 to the price, and its overclocked out-of-the-box performance, which may add another $50. This brings the expected price to about $850, which is still $120 less than the current asking price.
It's a common practice among third-party manufacturers like Gigabyte, MSI, and Asus to capitalize on high demand by increasing prices. Finding another RTX 5070 Ti GPU at this price or lower is challenging, with many selling for over $1,000 on eBay.
The RTX 5070 Ti GPU Has Excellent 4K Gaming Performance
Among the Blackwell series cards released so far, the RTX 5070 Ti stands out as the best value, especially when compared to the previous generation GPUs. It delivers performance comparable to the RTX 4080 Super and significantly outperforms the RTX 5080, which is only 10%-15% faster yet costs 33% more. This GPU excels in delivering high framerates across nearly all games, even at 4K resolution with ray tracing enabled. Additionally, for those considering AI applications, the RTX 5070 Ti offers great value with its 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM, matching the RTX 50870's memory capacity.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"At $749, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is the best 4K graphics card for most people, delivering much better value than either the RTX 5080 or 5090. Across my entire test suite, this GPU soared at 4K, coming within striking distance of much more expensive graphics cards, and that’s before taking multi frame generation into account, which will make the RTX 5070 Ti even better at hitting extremely high framerates, albeit with a hit to latency."
