Customer Ratings & Reviews

First: If you get a card, or really any RTX 3000+ series card, Undervolt it. Look up a guide on how to undervolt your specific card for some initial suggestions & and 'how to', using MSI Afterburner, customize/adjust the clock/power curve. Just do it. Use a windowed benchmark to determine if a given setting is at least passably reliable. Why's that important? Results with mine ended up a slight 'overclock' vs stock ~240W TDP, down to ~140W @ 2855mhz/875mV. Less heat, less noise, lower power bill. Slightly better performance, especially with a +2000mhz ram adjustment. Game wise - I haven't played anything that really pushes the limits of a 10GB+ card recently. MS FS 2020 would be the most likely to do so if I fired it up again. Nonetheless, it's been a nice experience in the couple games I have played - namely Satisfactory. Fan curve is a little aggressive @ stock wattage and it's noticeable. Apparent Minimum 30% fan speed (when on) is ~1725rpm. Plainly audible in an otherwise nice quiet case. Undervolting, though, really does help the card adhere to the bottom of that fan curve - typically not hitting more than about 40-50c while running a reasonably demanding game. Without undervolting, running ~240-250W, at stock clocks, these can get pretty warm and noisy - fans getting up to 2600-2900 rpm - so there's truth to that if you've heard it elsewhere. For the short time I had it @ stock, it didn't seem to get near Maximums temp wise, but I did see 80c. It'd be nice if Nvidia tuned these more for 'efficiency' on their power/performance profiles, but they would also (rightfully) be concerned about stability for *all* units as a product lineup. It'd also be nice if 5080 and 5090 FE were more available, too. Design & hardware wise, fit/finish is as good as I've seen it on any RTX 3000+ Founders Edition card, including my 'old' 3080FE being slightly upgraded here. All have a very premium look & feel - solid in the hands. For reference, this undervolted 5070 FE performs about 15-20% better, and ~180W less than the stock TDP of a 3080 FE. Less than half the power consumption for more performance.

NVIDIA has done it again. The RTX 5070 Founders Edition punches far above its weight class, delivering flagship-level performance at a mid-range price point. This sleek, well-engineered card embodies the classic NVIDIA design aesthetic with a dual-axial cooling setup that runs whisper-quiet even under full load. The biggest highlight? Grand Theft Auto VI running at a buttery-smooth 120fps at 1440p on Ultra settings. The RTX 5070 chews through Rockstar's highly detailed open world with ease, showcasing the power of the Ada Lovelace refresh architecture and DLSS 3.5 frame generation. Even in high-traffic zones or explosive action scenes, the frame rate remains rock solid - a testament to the card's cooling efficiency and raw GPU horsepower. Ray tracing performance is excellent for this tier, and with DLSS enabled, visuals remain crisp and fluid. For gamers upgrading from a 30-series or below, the 5070 represents a major leap in fidelity and responsiveness. Temperatures hover around 65-70°C during extended sessions, and power consumption is surprisingly modest for the performance delivered. In short, the RTX 5070 Founders Edition is a fantastic choice for 1440p and even light 4K gaming, especially for those eager to experience the latest AAA titles like GTA VI at high frame rates without spending top dollar. It's efficient, quiet, beautifully built, and offers tremendous value - a sweet spot in NVIDIA’s current lineup.

The RTX 5070 is an absolute sweet spot for 1440p gaming. Still blazing fast, efficient, and built for the next generation. Paired with my new build, it delivers smooth, max-settings performance in AAA titles, while the 12GB of GDDR7 ensures plenty of headroom for future games. Ray tracing and DLSS 3 make visuals stunning without sacrificing FPS, and despite its power, it runs cool and quiet in a well-ventilated case. If you want a card that balances performance, efficiency, and future-proofing without venturing into wallet-breaking territory, the 5070 nails it. Don’t get swayed by YouTubers chasing the top benchmarks, the truth is, this card is the right choice for 80% of gamers at a fair price.

Buy a 40 card there better then these overpriced gpu

The RTX 5070 is a rock-solid upgrade for any gaming rig—and it doesn’t waste time proving it. Swapping it in for a 3090, the results are instantly noticeable: smoother frame rates, especially with ray tracing enabled, and noticeably lower power consumption across the board. On a dual QHD monitor setup, it keeps gameplay fluid and immersive without the usual energy trade-off. Smart Performance, Smart Power Use What really sets the 5070 apart is how efficiently it handles modern titles. Despite its 12GB VRAM cap, it runs mainstream games with zero hiccups. You get high-end performance that doesn’t tax your system—or your electricity bill. Know Its Limits, Use It Right For AI tasks like StableDiffusion, you might want to turn to a card with more VRAM (like the 5060 Ti 16GB), especially for memory-heavy models. But for pure gaming? The 5070 punches well above its weight. Bottom Line The RTX 5070 doesn’t just work—it excels where it counts. If you want a sleek, reliable GPU that balances performance, energy efficiency, and affordability, this one's a winner.

I upgraded to the RTX 5070 from a 3060, and the performance jump is impressive. Games run smoother at higher settings, and ray tracing is finally practical without major frame drops. The 12GB GDDR7 VRAM gives me confidence for future titles. It stays cool and quiet, and the graphite grey design looks great in my build. Perfect for 1440p and even light 4K gaming. Highly recommended for gamers who want high performance without going all-in on a 5090.

High-end performance at an amazing price. For someone building a pc with a budget this 550$ gpu may be perfect as it incorporates Nvidia’s latest tech and its performance in video games is even better. I personally prefer the Founders edition graphic cards as they are simple yet beautiful. It exceeded my expectations in nearly all stations as I did not expect a 500$ card to give me insane framerates and the fact that it remains quiet even under heavy load. The installation couldn’t have been simpler it was almost just plug and play. Overall an excellent gpu, performance is excellent at 1440p and even stronger on 4K in most titles especially when using DLSS3.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 delivers excellent 1440p and solid 4K gaming performance with improved ray tracing and DLSS 3.5 support. It’s power-efficient, quiet, and offers great value for its price. Ideal for gamers seeking high performance without breaking the bank. A strong mid-tier GPU upgrade choice.

Given how awful the GPU market is (as of April 2025), being able to get this card at $550 MSRP is probably the best price/performance ratio out there. Even though the 9070 is better, good luck getting that at a reasonable price. But then again, good luck getting this card... Also, this card feels like it should have been the '5060' based on a variety of metrics like the questionable 12gb of VRAM and equivalent performance to the 4070S. For 40-series users this card is not an impressive leap and should be ignored. I'm coming from a 3070, however, and the performance gain has been impressive. This card is also cheaper than the 3070 I bought years ago, so there is definitely value here. I think its the only 50-series card that is worth it/won't light itself on fire/probably has all of its ROPS. Time will tell how long 12gb of VRAM is useful for...

This is the best looking card I've ever had, I'm impressed on it's performance as well, keeps cool and quiet even under high load.

I would give it 5 stars, but the issue for me is lack of vram for whats supposed to be a 1440p card. Many games now require 16gb or vram, and in games like Apex legends 1080p max settings, your almost reach the vram limit. I would recommend to upgrade to a 5070ti, arround 200-300 dollars more. You get more vram and better proformance for those trying to hit 240hz 1440p gaming in tripple A games more consistently.

I recently got my hands on the RTX 5070, and it has completely transformed the way I experience gaming and creative work. The performance leap is incredible games run smoother than ever, and the graphics are simply breathtaking. Rendering, editing, and multitasking feel effortless thanks to its advanced architecture and efficient cooling system

Was looking for a new card since my 3060 ti was getting a little old and newer games are requiring more vram to run them and this was the perfect card for “budget” gamers. It’s fairly compact and pack great performance for the price. If you can get it for msrp and you’re upgrading from a 20 or 30 series budget card it’s well worth the money. But if you own a 40 series card like a 4070 and up just wait till the 60 series to see more of a performance jump since it’s not a crazy upgrade from those cards

The nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 best graphic card in the world and just cost $549.99. Everything look so bright and beautiful. Move so smoothly and quiet. Best recommendation if you want to build a powerful PC and spend lest money. Plus a 1 free month of Discord Nitro.

Great for 1440p, maxing frames out for most games I play. Read reviews saying the FE runs hot and loud, but have experienced neither. Whisper quiet and maxed around 68c under load. Would recommend

Picked up the 5070 Founders Edition recently, and it’s been an absolute beast. Handles 4K video editing and 3D rendering like a dream—smooth, fast, and quiet even under heavy load. The build quality is premium, and temps stay under control thanks to the efficient cooling design. If you’re doing creative work or gaming, this card delivers serious performance without compromise.

Great GPU, the size fits well in a mid tower cabinet, and the temperatures are running as expected... and finally the architecture and material of the board is excellent, I'm loving it

Wow!! I upgraded my previous GPU (Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060Ti Founders edition) to the 5070 GPU. I was debating whether buying the 5080 for the extra cash was a stretch given the initial "YouTube" review for this GPU; I have to say that the 5070 is running phenomenal! Path of exile 2 runs upwards 120fps at 2k with my OLED monitor and runs amazing and looks gorgeous, Kingdom come deliverance 2 is running at 2K and my average FPS is about 100fps (this game looks gorgeous) and runs smooth, Age of wonders 4 runs extremely smooth and looks beautiful! If you are looking to upgrade your GPU, not break the bank but want the benefit of the new technology and performance improvement, this is the card! YouTubers sat down and gave benchmarks (which are worth reviewing), honestly, it was amazing for me. Best of luck!

This card gets a lot of hate because of the way Nvidia presented it as equal to a 4090, but! Its worth every dollar. Its running games at 1440 flawlessly and 12gb vram isnt great but its far better than the 8gb I came from. No regrets here. Paired well with a 5900x.

I was downsizing my case and had a huge rtx 3080 that wouldn't fit in my new one. So I decided to pick this bad boy up since its performance is quite similar but uses less power and is wayyyy smaller. I have this in a cramped fractal ridge case and this baby doesn't go over 65c. PSA UNDERVOLT THIS CARD
