- A reditor received a third RTX 5070 TI before its launch on February 20
- It comes before his magazine of February 19
- Recent reports suggest that the new GPU will suffer from similar stock problems observed with the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080
The launch of the NVIDIA RTX 5000 GPU 5000 series was a tangled affair, due to many problems such as the limited supply and scalping of retailers. Now, if that was not already bad enough for Team Green, the RTX 5070 TI is only two days before its launch – but one of its third -party models is unfortunately already in nature.
Spotted by Videocardz, a Redditor claims that they have already received the GPU Asus RTX 5070 Ti Prime OC, before the magazine of the review and the real launch of the Founders Edition card, which takes place respectively on February 19 and 20. The leaks and speculation circulating around the new Blackwell GPUs are not exactly extraordinary, but a card landing in fact with a buyer a few days before the launch is a fairly wild turn of the events.
Although this does not prove to be strongly detrimental to the launch of the RTX 5070 Ti, he still highlights exactly the way in which GPU’s last launch of the Green team has been more put in as soon as the GPU coming could also face To the same supply problems that we highlight with the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, potentially leaving the Scalpers salivate again.
The Redditor has also mentioned paying more than the retail price, which is not a surprise – several online retailers currently include influenite prices for third -party cards RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, so even if the recipient probably paid for a Supplement (with the unexpected unexpected advantage of obtaining the RTX 5070 Ti early), there is a good chance that the same price inflation will happen for the family 5070.
It is probably better to stick to your GPU of the RTX 4000 series for the moment
Recognizing current problems with RTX 5000 availability, the simplest solution is to stick to your GPU of the RTX 4000 series if you have one. If you are lucky, you can even find third -party models of Radeon RX 7900 XTX of AMD (which is only slightly lower than the RTX 5080) at prices at reduced prices, or you could simply wait for the range of Series Radeon RX 9000 from Team Red (assuming that they do not obtain the treatment of the scalper too).
The only drawback you may have with the flagship GPU of the RX 7000 Red series, is potentially no access to FSR 4 – I say it with a lively accent on `Potentially ‘.
Although I do not minimize the efficiency of DLSS 4 with the multi-framework generation on new Blackwell GPUs, it simply does not worth paying too much to pre-order one of the cards at this stage. There will be more than probably replenishments in order to GPU RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 at one point (and probably the same once the 5070 family sells), but who knows how long it will take.
Right now, if you have an RX 7900 XTX or an RTX 4080 Super, rest assured, you are not missing …
