If you've been eagerly awaiting the restock of one of the more budget-friendly Blackwell cards, now's your chance to snag one at the listed price. Amazon is currently offering the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Windforce OC 12GB Graphics Card exclusively to Amazon Prime members for $609.99, complete with free shipping. This GPU is a powerhouse for gaming at resolutions up to 1440p, delivering high frame rates and featuring the cutting-edge DLSS 4 technology.
It's worth noting that the suggested launch price for a GeForce RTX 5070 card is $549.99. While there are models available at this price point, they've been notoriously difficult to find in stock. The Windforce OC model is priced higher due to its overclocked performance. Nonetheless, at $609.99, this is the most competitive price you'll find for a standalone RTX 5070 GPU at the moment.

When compared to the previous generation GPUs, the RTX 5070 offers performance on par with the RTX 4070 Super. While we might have hoped for a more substantial generational leap in raw performance, the RTX 4070 Super was already a stellar choice for gaming at 1080p and 1440p, launching at $599.99—just $10 less than this Gigabyte 5070 model. However, finding an RTX 4070 Super at this price point has become nearly impossible. The RTX 5070 shines brighter in games that support DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation, making it a more future-proof option that will continue to improve with driver updates.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 delivers on its promise: high frame rates at 1440p. However, it doesn't necessarily outperform the RTX 4070 Super or other cards in its price range. The addition of Multi Frame Generation is a nice touch for those with high-refresh monitors, but on its own, it might not justify an upgrade."
