"Gigabyte RTX 5070 Graphics Card Now at MSRP for Amazon Prime Members"

If you've been eagerly waiting to snag one of the more budget-friendly Blackwell GPUs at a reputable retailer, now's your golden opportunity. Amazon is currently offering the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Windforce OC 12GB Graphics Card exclusively to Amazon Prime members at the list price of $609.99, complete with free shipping. This GPU is a powerhouse for gaming at up to 1440p resolution, delivering high framerates and supporting the cutting-edge DLSS 4 technology.

It's worth noting that the suggested launch price for a GeForce RTX 5070 card is $549.99. While there are models available at this price, they're notoriously difficult to find in stock. The Windforce OC model is priced higher due to its overclocked performance. However, at $609.99, this is currently the most competitive price for a standalone RTX 5070 GPU on the market.

When compared to the previous generation, the RTX 5070 holds its own against the RTX 4070 Super. While we might have hoped for a more significant leap in raw performance, the RTX 4070 Super was already a stellar choice for 1080p and 1440p gaming, launching at $599.99—just $10 less than this Gigabyte 5070 model. However, finding an RTX 4070 Super at this price point is nearly impossible these days. The RTX 5070 not only looks better but also performs superiorly in games that leverage DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation, making it a more future-proof option that will continue to improve with driver updates.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Review by Jacqueline Thomas

"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 delivers on its promise to play games at 1440p with high frame rates. However, it doesn't necessarily outshine the RTX 4070 Super or other cards in its price bracket. The addition of Multi Frame Generation is a welcome feature, especially for those with high-refresh monitors, but it might not justify an upgrade on its own."
