Nvidia cards are great and among the best. I had a Nvidia 4080fe which I had purchased a years or so prior to the release of the 5000 cards for about 1200 (prices are insane). So after being able to snag a Nvidia 5070ti above for 750 I sold the 4080fe for a price similar to what I purchased it for and was able to net a few bucks with this card which is very similar in performance.
The newer 5000 series cards have a lot of great new tech in them, but one of the best aspects of these new cards is they are so much smaller and so much quieter than the 4000 cards. This 5070ti is easily half the size (maybe more) than the Nvidia 4080 FE (founder's edition) and it is whisper quiet compared to that card (which admittedly those FE cards were loud).
Nvidia's cards and pretty much most graphics cards are over priced and it is absurd. This is an amazing graphics card.

Amazing card. Handles everything at 1440p and even 4k perfectly. 4x frame gen is a game changer and native performance is enough to get high frame rates in games like cyberpunk 2077. I ran it at Ray Traced max with 120+ fps. I wouldn’t pay more than $750 for it though.

Nothing to do with Best Buy - would have been "six" stars. PNY put the wrong 16-pin adapter inside the box. It was supposed to be a three legged 8-pin to 1x 16 pin but was two legged. How could the card run with two instead of three? It didn't - what an oversight. PNY made up (kinda) for it by getting the right adapter to me in a WEEK AND A HALF!

This is the one GPU that is consistently available and sold at MSRP and for that alone, it deserves 5-stars. But for the sake of this review, I want to look beyond price and availability.
The card itself is excellent. Performance is solid right out of the box. It's a simple plug-and-play that required no optimization on my part. at 98% utilization it stays reasonably cool at around 70–73°C. While this is safely within operating limits, it does run slightly warmer than some competing cards, which tend to stay under 70°C under similar conditions.
My biggest issue, however, is the return policy. Best Buy only offers a 14-day return window for this GPU. I'm not sure if that's the norm for graphics cards, but I remember having 30-day return windows on other electronics. That shorter return period is the main reason I’m holding back from giving this a full 5-star rating.

This is a great card. One of the few 5070 Ti that actually sell at MSRP. I did end up returning this due to landing a 5080 FE within my return period, but overall this is still a great card and well worth it for most. Especially those that game at 1440P. It can do 4K too, but I would suggest more power for 4K.

This 5070ti has been working wonderfully! I'm upgrading from a 1660ti, so it was going to be a massive upgrade regardless. I have not had any issues with this for the few months I have had it so far. It mostly makes me realize it's time to upgrade my CPU!

PNY provided a 2x8 pin adapter with the card, I think it should have been a 3x8 pin instead. I wasn't able to get the card running on two different PCs until I tried using a 3x8pin adapter from Cablemod.
Feels like that adapter issue should be better known - a lot of people probably would have assumed the card was DOA. The card is running great now, and would still recommend it, but I definitely had a frustrating time getting it set up.

I was able to snag this at MSRP and think it's the sweet spot for price to performance for 1440p.
I run Battlefield 6 on Ultra (with some Overkill settings) 160+ FPS.

Card is very well cooled, and has ample space to disperse heat. I don't even think I have hit close to max on it yet. Without even overclocking I have seen clock speeds go over 3.0GHZ. And that is just playing Fortnite or Modern Warfare. It is a plain black card, I have enough lights to make up for lack of bling. Happy. I doubt it will be MSRP for long, get it.
