5070 review. For those considering it.

GN, LTT, JZ, Paul's Hardware, Lvl1 techs, Hardware Canucks all have reviews.

Yeah, for those considering the RTX5070... just don't.  It's not worth it.

Tomorrow reviews will tell if AMD finally got it right and has the solution for this price point (with the RX 9070 and 9070XT), or if it's another disapointment.

I felt that it deserved it's own post as the reviews are not great and that it might save someone from making an error in purchasing.

Wasn't this the card that was supposed to have 4090 like  performance with MFG?

Every review I watched said "don't".

Yep. All across the board, it's really bad.  Basically same thing as the RTX4070 Super it replaces.
Not even an upgrade in the slightest over previous generation. (but hey, at least you can get the fake-frames of MFG... with a huge latency penalty!)

I honestly don't remember a generation of GPUs so bad as the RTX5000 series, probably not even the maligned FX series back in 2003 (curiously, they too were 5000 series).
It's really ironic that it's now the lower budget 5060 and 5060Ti becoming the last hope of this generation, as saving grace for Nvidia.  And I'm not sure they'll hold up.

The two I watched were laughing their asses off, so I skipped the rest.

Nvidia has been saying it and the 5000 series card emphasis the point much more further. They are AI fixated now and care less about advancing raw performance in their cards.
It is sad though.

Let see if there will be a super variants down the road to save face from all these negative launch.

Just imagine that 4090 performance, that's just as good the same thing

LOL  that should be the next spin by the crocodile jacket man, along with "the more you buy, the more you save!".

And the sad thing about the RTX5070 (or rather, their gullible buyers) is that they're all sold out!

Amazon Canada has the 5070 at around $1800 and the 5080 at $3500. The 5090 is available for the low low price of... $7500. 

 

($1250, $2400, and $5200 in US dollars.)
