If you've been eagerly waiting for one of the more affordable Blackwell cards to come back in stock at a reputable retailer, now's your chance to snag one at its list price. Amazon currently offers 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 up to 1440p resolution, delivering high framerates and supporting the latest DLSS 4 technology. As a special bonus, you'll receive a free voucher for the upcoming Doom: The Dark Ages game with your purchase.

It's worth noting that the suggested launch price for a GeForce RTX 5070 card is $549.99. While some models are available at this price, they're extremely scarce. The Windforce OC model is priced higher due to its overclocked (OC) version, but it's currently the most affordable standalone RTX 5070 GPU you'll find. According to Tom's Hardware, Nvidia is planning to increase GPU prices by 10%-15% soon, making this an opportune time to buy.

Compared to the previous generation, the RTX 5070 offers performance similar to the RTX 4070 Super. While we hoped for a larger generational leap in raw performance, the RTX 4070 Super was already an outstanding card 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 is nearly impossible now. The RTX 5070 not only looks better but also performs better in games that support DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation, making it a more future-proof option that will benefit from ongoing driver optimizations.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Review by Jacqueline Thomas

"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 delivers on its promise: it plays games at 1440p with high frame rates. However, it doesn't necessarily outperform the RTX 4070 Super or other cards in its price range. It does introduce Multi Frame Generation, a valuable feature for users with high-refresh monitors, though it might not justify an upgrade on its own."
