If you've been eagerly waiting to snag one of the more budget-friendly Blackwell cards, now's your golden opportunity to grab one at its list price. Amazon is currently offering the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Windforce OC 12GB Graphics Card exclusively for Amazon Prime members at $609.99, complete with free shipping. This GPU is a powerhouse for gaming at resolutions up to 1440p, delivering high framerates and supporting the cutting-edge DLSS 4 technology. Plus, for a limited time, you'll receive a free voucher for the much-anticipated Doom: The Dark Ages game with your purchase.

Keep in mind, the suggested launch price for a GeForce RTX 5070 card is $549.99. While there are a few models available at that price, they're notoriously difficult to find in stock. The Windforce OC version is priced higher due to its overclocked capabilities. However, this is currently the best deal you can get for a standalone RTX 5070 GPU. According to Tom's Hardware, Nvidia is planning to increase GPU prices by 10%-15% in the near future, making this offer even more appealing.

Compared to the previous generation GPUs, the RTX 5070 holds its own against the RTX 4070 Super. While we hoped for a more significant performance leap, 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. Finding an RTX 4070 Super at this price is nearly impossible now. The RTX 5070, however, shines brighter in games that leverage DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation, making it a more future-proof option with room for improvement through driver optimizations.

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, its performance doesn't significantly surpass the RTX 4070 Super or other cards in its price bracket. The addition of Multi Frame Generation is a nice touch for those with high-refresh monitors, but it might not justify an upgrade on its own."

"For the price, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti stands out as the top choice for 4K gaming. Not only is it much faster than its predecessor, but with DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation, it's set to remain relevant for years to come."
