GIGABYTE - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti WINDFORCE SFF 16G GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 Graphics Card - Black

I have been looking to purchase a new GPU for quite some time now.. after extensive research and realizing i'd never get my hands on a 5090 FE at MSRP.. I decided to be realistic and found that the 5070TI is more than what I need gaming at 1440P. I upgraded from a 3060Ti 8GB that I basically had running at 100% utilization trying to play new games these days.. I got lucky one night and purchased this GPU and it has been amazing. Even when I'm pushing it with ultra graphics it's cruising at 50% utilization and topping out at 65 C... granted I also upgraded some fans but overall, the GPU just cruises and is quiet. One more note.. Love that it's mostly all black.. matches the stealthy look I was going for..

TLDR: One of the best bang for the buck GPUs at MSRP for gaming and video editing/animating. I’m upgrading from a 3070 (non-ti) and the performance uplift is great! I’m now rocking Cyberpunk at 4k with ultra ray tracing at silky smooth fps (using dlss or course) Pros: quiet, performs well, design is pretty cool looking, comes with anti-sag bracket. Cons: gonna be a tight squeeze in anything other than a full tower, obviously Nvidia’s BS about the 5070 mirroring 4090 performance,

Absolutely amazing. Runs at 50 Degrees Celsius while gaming at full load while staying silent, I cant even hear it. Isn't super big either, and looks pretty cool in my computer as well. 10/10

The 5070 TI is the perfect middle of the pack high end modern GPU that's going to churn out the best graphics for any game you throw at it. Minor concessions might be made but the 16gb of vram is well enough to keep this baby going for the long haul. 4k gaming? No problem. 1440p more your style? You're going to love this card. The installation and drivers are self explanatory and so far I've had cool temps and no crashes. Definitely recommend this card for a gaming enthusiast who wants future proof tech but also something that's currently better then most everything else except two other GPU's in the entire market.

Pros: - Great performance in 1440p gaming - 16gb VRAM should let you max texture + most other settings for the next few years - Overclocks REALLY well. Memory is easily +2000 on afterburner. You can get around 3200mhz with ~230W power draw, or like I did undervolt to 2900mhz at 180W. Both are big increases in performance to stock - Included support bracket is nice, but unnecessary imo Cons: - Very mild, but still audible coil whine on my unit. Luck of the draw in this aspect - Makes a loud ticking sound when going into 0 DB fan mode, which can be fixed by having a custom fan curve where it is always running. This also reduces idle temps by almost 20 degrees C - I have seen reports of the thermal putty (instead of thermal pads) leaking out of Gigabyte 50 series cards, but this mainly seems to be occurring with vertical GPUs. - It was almost impossible to get at MSRP from anywhere, I was barely able get one from here and got lucky at a 2am drop. Failed many more times to try to get it. now the MSRP cards start at $820. Please do NOT buy this card for more than $800
