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,

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

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

I love this card. Its perfect for 1440p gaming. The fans almost never kick on when gaming at 1440p 75fps on Battlefield 6 high settings. Most of my older games auto-detect ultra high settings. My only complaint about the card is the price. I’m fine with BestBuy and Nvidia getting a profit, but there is NO WAY it costs any more that $300 to produce. The card should cost $500-$600 max.
