Attention, gamers! If you’ve been eyeing Nvidia’s powerful RTX 5070 but the price tag has been holding you back, brace yourself! The mid-range powerhouse has just dipped below $500, thanks to a sneaky Amazon deal – but there’s a catch!
Wccftech spotted that the MSI Gaming RTX 5070 12G Shadow 2X OC is now $499.99, a cool $50 off its MSRP. But here’s the catch: this deal is only for Amazon Prime members. Boo!
This 12GB beast of a graphics card packs a top boost speed of 2557MHz, making it a formidable force at 1440p. And with DLSS 4 (including frame generation), supported games will run smoother than ever.
Now, you might be thinking, “Isn’t the RTX 5070 one of those ‘avoid at all costs’ GPUs?” Well, yes and no. While 12GB of VRAM might not cut it for future-proofing or the most demanding games, it’s still a solid performer at 1440p. Plus, it’s currently outshining the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB in terms of power, despite having less VRAM.
So, should you pull the trigger? Well, this deal is pretty darn tempting. But remember, rumors are swirling about an RTX 5070 Super that could potentially undercut this price. And while we’re all for a good deal, waiting could pay off – if you can hold out until then.
