NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Goes on Sale - Screenshots Document How Quickly they Sold Out

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, the company's third graphics card from its GeForce RTX 50-series "Blackwell" generation, started selling. Although it comes with a starting price of $750, there are very few models actually at the price, which are marked up by retailers. Premium custom-design cards by NVIDIA add-in card (AIC) partners are priced as much as 33% higher than the baseline, even crossing the $1,000-mark in some cases, which are further scalped by another 20%. The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is on paper a performance-segment GPU recommended by NVIDIA for 1440p high refresh-rate gaming, although it's capable of 4K Ultra HD with nearly maxed out settings or DLSS.

The RTX 5070 Ti is based on the same 5 nm "GB203" silicon as the RTX 5080, with 70/84 streaming multiprocessors (SM), across 6/7 GPCs enabled, along with 48 MB out of the 64 MB of on-die L2 cache. These work out to 8,960 CUDA cores, 280 Tensor cores, 70 RT cores, 280 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. The memory configuration is largely carried over from the RTX 5080, with 16 GB of 28 Gbps GDDR7 across a 256-bit wide memory bus (the RTX 5080 uses slightly faster 30 Gbps memory). The GPU ticks at 2452 MHz boost, and is given a total graphics power (TGP), a de facto power limit, of 300 W.

Check out our six reviews of the card: MSI RTX 5070 Ti Gaming OC+ | MSI RTX 5070 Ti Vanguard SOC | ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 5070 Ti OC | Palit RTX 5070 Ti GameRock OC | MSI RTX 5070 Ti Ventus 3X OC | Galax RTX 5070 Ti 1-Click OC

Man, I had prepared everything for the launch, ready to refresh the websites of various retailers and put an MSRP card in my cart. Payment was prepared as well. But not even that helped... in less than a minute, everything was gone ‍♂️

Not going to buy an overpriced, non-MSRP card. Not going to buy a 9070 which was supposed to have been released back in January, either.

Eh, perhaps I'll scour eBay for a 4060 Ti 16Gb at decent price, to use as a stop gap until the next nVidia/AMD generations on smaller nodes ‍♂️

I don't really get why you'd refuse yourself a 9070 just because it's late (if anything, it's a good thing, hopefully they avoided some of their usual mistakes on the software side of things...), you haven't seen any actual prices or performance benches yet

Here in India most retailers havent posted prices for 5070Ti. Guess similar to what you are seeing on Caseking.

What makes you think the next gen launch will be any better? If you think prices are gross now, buckle up for 3nm...

The 9070 will be a good card, I don't doubt it.

But I'm simply loathe to validate incompetence. Nvidia has been, and is currently doing a lot of crooked shit - but this year, in my view, the Azor's Boys are by far the worst. There is absolutely no way I'm going to reward their clownery.

Can get them in the UK for £799 as I type including 20% UK VAT. Can't really imagine anyone really being excited though, you're getting 4080 performance for a similar price to what the 4080 was going for over the last year anyway.

Interesting also plenty of 4070TI left around in stock, also for the same price as 5070TI, make it make sense ?

It's another case of Nvidia deliberately launching with very little stock, to support prices at these nosebleed levels a bit longer...

The AI bubble will burst. It's doing it right now. There was supposed to be a Blackwell ultimate chip this year. Now wafers are transitioning to 5000 series.

It's a blend of performance, pricing and availability. Right now, it's really bad overall. At least, for the next gen, we can reasonably expect the performance variable to be positive... even if pricing gets uglier and availability is still sketchy

Check your Bri'ish privilege ! On the continent, old stocks have dried up and the new cards are instantly gone.

Awesome how reviews come out AFTER the cards go on sale.

I could have snagged one but had no idea which model would want.

Well in Germany we had around a minute to buy them, I didn't intend to, I just watched the shitshow.

Alternate.de was sold out after 48seconds.......in some cases reviewers had more card than some stores :D

He never had any intention on buying a Radeon, it's just a performance act for the forum.

$1,000 to start with, add ~20% VAT for Europe... How do you say FU in English? :nutkick:

The amount of incompetence is often overblown by reviewers waving the team green flag, fortunately AMD products don't reflect their marketing. But if you'd rather reward the leather jacket man for lies, greed,stagnation and a near monopoly over the market then to each their own I guess.

Remember guys.. Nvidia basicly said you dont need to upgrade. DLSS,FSR and XESS will let you use your older card and the only real increase in performance is there new multi frame gen.

It's probably down to personal values and life experience. I'm at a point in my life where I refuse to deal with incompetent pricks whenever I can, because I'm forced enough to deal with them in a professional context.

So, in the dGPU department, I was rooting for AMD because I didn't like the Leather Swindler's shenanigans.
Then I witnessed AMD's meltdown at CES and their pathetic communication (or lack thereof) around it. The monumental loss of opportunity.
That's when I decided that I'd rather contribute to the Jacket Fund than to the Clown Fund. For this generation at least. With the added benefit of better compatibility in ML tasks.

But with the continuous crapshow, I'm putting my upgrade plans on hold.
In parallel, I'll be looking forward to Intel's potential announcements this year, and also to products based on AMD's Strix Halo (a nice piece of engineering that's commercially released as soon as it's available, wow, would you look at this !).

So releasing just a measly amount of graphics cards per launch, and some with faulty power connectors for the second time in a row is not incompetence you?

Ebuyer, overclockers, scan were sold out in a minute. Overclockers had some annoying dirty trick where they appeared as in stock for 799 until you tried to buy them. They went out of stock in a minute. And the cart was crashing all the time anyway if you did have one in stock.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING THIS OUT LOUD

Yep, and I don't understand why. This is potentially the RTX 50 card to get for most people, as it's got the best perf/W and perf/$ of the whole bunch. Then again this launch has been nothing short of a disaster at each and every turn. They needed to shore up stock and work on the drivers before releasing, and don't even get me started on the connector crap again. That's a drama all its own.

They had them when I posted that, two models in stock. Gone for the moment, it was very easy to get one today if you wanted it. Most of them will show up on eBay shortly I would think. They've still got loads of 4070Ti available as well. Within 3 months all the 5 series will be available everywhere at msrp or below I should think.

There's also nothing exciting about a card with the same price and performance as the 4080/s which was available for the last 18 months. Just fomo and greed from the scalpers, combined with nvidia deliberately not launching with volume.

You know, I am not as mad about this in regards to not being able to get the GPU. My problem is the second hand market stays the same which means I cant pick up RTX 4080's or RX 7900 series cards much cheaper.
