The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card was released in late February for $749.99, but good luck finding one at that price. As with the rest of the Blackwell lineup, everyone from personal sellers to the manufacturers themselves have joined in on the price markup bonanza. You'd be hard pressed to find a 5070 Ti for anything lower than $1,000.

So, yeah, my PC is getting old. The Monster Hunter Wilds graphics benchmark made me realize I would need some upgrades sooner than later (ideally, before Grand Theft Auto 6 and The Witcher 4 ), as it chugged and textures were slow to load in.

Planning to play games at 1440p? Or maybe 4K? Nvidia's new GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti GPUs are rival siblings vying for your PC gaming bucks. We've tested both to help you determine the right one for you.
