$580 but you need a microcenter

https://slickdeals.net/f/19051264-micro-center-asrock-challenger-radeon-rx-9070-xt-16gb-gddr6-graphics-card-580-free-store-pickup?src=rcm_disco_related_deals_popular_h

This 5070 deal ain't bad at all, especially considering it's Amazon and brand new.

12 GB is fine. 16 will be better 5 years from now but this should do the job till then.

Community Reviews

The ASUS Prime RTX 5070 is being treated as a solid 1440p upgrade, especially for swapping into an existing PC for a big jump over cards like the 2070 Super. It is also described as running cool in normal play, with the ASUS Prime cooler drawing praise for better thermals. The main hesitation is the 12GB of VRAM, which feels tight for some newer games and makes the card less compelling next to 16GB alternatives like the RX 9070 or 9070 XT. Pricing also looks only slightly below MSRP, with several nearby retailers and Micro Center offering similar or lower numbers.

Common Questions (4)

  • It is a decent price for a brand-new Amazon card, but it is only about $10 under MSRP and several retailers have had similar pricing. Micro Center has been mentioned at $499, and some shoppers would rather spend a bit more for a 16GB RX 9070 or 9070 XT instead.

  • Yes, it is generally a solid 1440p card and 12GB is enough for most 1440p or lower use cases. It can still run into VRAM limits in some newer AAA games with max settings, especially path tracing or "supreme" presets, where settings may need to be reduced.

    nuy6n6nndaltoWreckerALeXWreckerALeX

  • Yes, you can swap the GPU into an existing AM4 PC without rebuilding the whole system. A 5000-series AM4 CPU should not bottleneck a 5070 much, so many users can upgrade the video card first and delay a full platform change.

    GolgathatimobkgRotoJedi

  • It is reported to run cool in normal use and only gets warm in newer AAA games at max settings. One owner also added a backplate heatsink and thermal padding to the ASUS PRIME model's cutout area and saw temperatures drop by 5+°C.

Oh silly. This one will be brighter than your LED when it gets really really hot.

Was thinking the same thing. Even at $600 I'd rather take the 16GB of VRAM

Except AMD will give up the 9070 3 years after release like they have gave up on the 6000 series.

Where can you find a 9070 XT for even $600 shipped to your door?

more amazon GPU fraud starting up the past month, go figure as cards get more and more expensive, it becomes worth a criminals time to mug people virtually.

Yeah noob question, so to do a new build, buying this would force me to AM5 meaning I have to get super expensive RAM correct?
Right now still on AM4 with a 2070 Super

If you are doing a current technology build then DDR5 RAM is probably what you will want and it is stupid expensive now. DIY build is likely going to be more expensive than a prebuilt but you it will depend on a combo deal you find for mobo/cpu/ram.

I bought a prebuilt skytech (was partial deal from here and after viewing it cap1shop sent an offer for CB that made the deal hard to pass up. My debate is whether I try to offload the 5070 that came with my PC and throw my 3090 in it or if I just keep the 5070 and offload the 3090. I do mostly game and work from the PC but I do some 3D modeling for 3D printing and the 12GB vram isn't much upgrade from my 3060ti in the computer I use (can't put 3090 in it because its a dell prebuilt from 2020).

Unless I am missing something a number of stores are at the same price. Best Buy, B&H, and Newegg.

You could simply upgrade the video card and wait on the full system overhaul. Anything 5000 series on AM4 shouldn't bottleneck a 5070 too much (if at all).
