5070Ti the sweet spot.. in terms of price to performance by the looks of it, same as rumours suggested, it's too close to the 5080 which is probably why it's not launching at the same time because it almost makes the 5080 look redundant.

[Michiel1989]

5070 is not gonna be close to performance of the 4090 if that's what you think. When they mentioned that they showed AI flops or tops on screen, so its probably just that aspect that is comparable to it. If you check the rest of the specs, 5070 is almost 50% lower or more than 4090

They did the same thing last gen announcement and it was also 1 thing out of 20 that was comparable when they made a statement like this.

[Neonridr]

the close to performance is with the aid of the x4 frame generation technology. Technically it won't be on the same level performance wise, from a consumer standpoint, most won't be able to tell the difference.

[Michiel1989]

i go by their previous track record and won't believe shit until it's in the hand of the consumer until then, I consider them lies because they've done so before. Believe me I want to believe it, would be the best value in 2 decades from nvidia, but I don't see it happening.

[Sephiroushin]

@neo

you're crazy if you think you cant see a difference, dlss, fsr and every upscaler is crap and noticeable, espeically if you're used to play your videogames with all that utter s*** turned off, hopefully the 5090 raw performance bring Ultra 4k @120 comfortably because the 4090 it still not there!

[badz149]

can't believe we are living in a time where PC gamers are hyped over upscaling and fake frames sigh.

remember in 2014 when KZSF was nitpicked and bashed to hell for using temporal projection to achieve 60fps in MP? all is good as long as nVidia is doing it, right, masterrace??

[Michiel1989]

@badz you're so disconnected from pc gaming that you don't even realize that 90% of the pc gaming community hates nvidia because their prices are so ridiculous, the sad thing is when it comes to the highest performance cards, there is no competition. but yeah let's dig up one nitpicked example from the dark ages to prove a point that probably 2 journos mentioned, no one was complaining about the graphics. KZ SF just wasn't even close to as memorable as kz 2 or even 3, that's why it got worse reviews. I remember almost nothing from SF while I have many cool memories from kz2.

If the 5070 had 16GB VRAM @ $549 it would have been a killer card, and probably be hard to find at retail price for quite a while.

[lucasnooker]

I’m getting that 5090! I’ve been holding off upgrading my pc for 10 years! Still on a titan x pascal! I’m going all in!

[bunt-custardly]

Good luck with that. My advice, don't stress out on the day 1 purchase and take yer time. You will get one eventually.

Until they do something about the scalpers issue these GPU releases are a nightmare.

[lucasnooker]

I’m still waiting on my 9800x3D lol. I ordered at normal price but had to be put on the backlog instead and wait till end of Jan for it.

My new pc parts are just going to be sitting there till I get my new components…

[RiseNShine]

Give me the real world tests and get the marketing cheap talk out of the way, i bet 5070 is barely close to 4080 is pure rasterized performance if you remove DLSS and other nvidia tricks.

[DivineHand125]

Something tells me that all new high-budget games will support the AI frame-gen tech, so rasterized performance will only matter on lower-budget or older PC games.

[RiseNShine]

If that's ok for you then good, but $2,000 for 30% more real performance and the rest of the improvement is based on fake frames performance doesn't seem such a good deal, and we're yet to see how good those extra generated frames look like.

[shaenoide]

RTX 5090- $1,999USD
RTX 5080- $999USD
RTX 5070 TI- $749USD
RTX 5070- $549USD

Obviously before taxes/tariff

[gold_drake]

2k for the 5090 lol

[Sephiroushin]

"if you're a broke boy just say so"! ... joke aside, people will still buy it no problem, after all there is no competition on that level and they can easily charge a premium for it, one of the reasons its at that high price and why the xx80 version got a cut in price

[badz149]

the 6090 will be $2500 then?

[DarXyde]

Nvidia is clearly too comfortable.

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

Same could be said for certain console makers…

[DarXyde]

Probably.

Irrelevant to a discussion about Nvidia, though. Not sure why you're being indirect.

[DivineHand125]

I am happy that the only card that saw a price increase is the RTX 5090. I am looking at building a PC featuring the RTX 5070 either at the end of the year or early next year. It is possible to get something just a little over $1000 today so the prices may improve down the line.

The only negative I see here is that Nvidia has secured their dominance for the next 2 years because all the other AI frame gen tech are trying to compete with Nvidia's last-gen dlss and not the new multi-frame gen. With the RTX 5070 being priced at $549, AMD cannot price their RX 9070 anywhere near that.

[ocelot07]

That 5070 looking tasty if it's as powerful as a 4090.

[Sonic1881]

With Nvidia tricks turned on like A.I processing and DLSS 4

[Neonridr]

to the average gamer, they won't notice the difference.

[ocelot07]

That's most likely true. However, DLSS is pretty good. Playing at 1440p and using dlss I genuinely find it hard telling the difference.

[LightofDarkness]

Happy to sit this gen out with my 4090. There are so few games that push that card even now that it’s just not worth it to upgrade yet. Especially since the next step up is going to cost 2000€. And I really don’t care about multiple frame gen.

[ARESWARLORD]

5070 could be really impressive if it is on par with the 4090

[Eidolon]

Good prices. I'll probably opt for 5070 if the claims are even close to being true about it being on level with 4090 in performance, which I doubt, and it has to have 16GB variant.

[xenz]

AI rendering is the future it seems, and I’m all for it.

[PRIMORDUS]

The $549 5070 should have had 16GB VRAM. 12GB now is just plain dumb. I won't be surprised if they come out with a 5070 Super with 16GB VRAM, classic Nvidia.

[badz149]

they will. next year

[FPS_D3TH]

Better priced than I expected. Personally not upgrading for another couple years so I may grab a 5080TI if they’re announced but would settle with a regular 5080

[Fonsecap]

If someone thinks that these cards will be somewhere near it's msrp when they arrive at retail, you're dreaming. Not to mention scalping.

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

Definitely going after the 5090. I got stuck with a 4070 last gen which is a great card but I want the best my money can by this time around.
