ASUS The SFF-Ready Prime GeForce RTX™ 5070 Graphics Card, NVIDIA (PCIe® 5.0, 12GB GDDR7, HDMI®/DP 2.1, 2.5-Slot, Axial-tech Fans, Dual BIOS)

I bought this ASUS SFF-Ready Prime RTX 5070 for $499 and it has been an excellent value for my use case. I am mainly a competitive gamer and have hit near top ranks in multiple titles (R6 Siege, Overwatch, and Marvel Rivals). I play at 1440p on a 27-inch monitor, with competitive settings most of the time and occasional AAA/high-end games on high or ultra. One thing I did not fully appreciate until upgrading is how important the CPU is for competitive titles. I upgraded to a Ryzen 7 7800X3D while keeping my old RX 5700 XT at first, and the biggest improvement was not raw FPS, it was smoothness: noticeably less stuttering and much better frame consistency, with only a smaller FPS bump. That upgrade made it obvious that the CPU was a major limiter for the games I play. That said, bottlenecking still exists the other way around, especially at 1440p. Even with a 7800X3D, you still need a capable GPU to take full advantage of it. For me, the RTX 5070 is the sweet spot if you mainly play competitive titles but still want the option to run AAA games at high settings. My heavier games include modded Cyberpunk 2077, GTA V, Elden Ring, and Minecraft with shaders (which can push my system hard, especially without DLSS). The 5070 handles that mix very well. I considered stepping up to a 5070 Ti, but after taxes the price increase for that tier would have been a large jump for me. Since GPUs tend to become “outdated” the fastest compared to the rest of a build, I would rather take the value tier now and upgrade again later than overspend for performance I do not consistently need. In my case, the 5070 Ti just did not make sense for the extra cost. Overclocking and tuning have been a highlight. This card has a lot of headroom. I gained roughly 10% extra performance with a simple OC (+300 MHz core, +1500 MHz VRAM). I have also tested running a lower power limit. I dropped it from 120% to 85% and, in the games I play, I have not noticed a meaningful performance difference, but it does reduce power draw. Thermals have also been good. In my testing, the GPU sits around 67°C under load. For anyone curious, I included benchmark screenshots. My results were: * 3DMark Steel Nomad: 5839 * MSI Kombustor (2560×1440): 6587 * FurMark (2560×1440): 13153 Overall, if you are primarily a competitive gamer at 1440p and want a strong value GPU that can still handle occasional AAA games at high settings, this RTX 5070 is an easy recommendation. If you are mainly an AAA/high-settings player and want maximum graphics performance per dollar at the higher tiers, you may already know you will be happier spending more on a 5070 Ti-class card. For my priorities, this 5070 was the right balance.

I needed an upgrade from my old AMD Sapphire GPU to handle studio work (2D/3D CAD, light 3D rendering, etc) and take on some gaming (Cyberpunk 2077 as the benchmark). So far I have had zero issues. Install was easy as usual, just make sure you wipe your old drivers and update you MoBo BIOS. I'm a 1440p disciple and my ASUS TUF Monitor has never looked better in regard to video quality. HDR looks fantastic, Cyberpunk will even run Path Tracing at about 60FPS with a LITTLE boost from your CPU if you've got a higher end piece. Definitely a powerful card for this range. I'm glad I didn't listen to the influencers hating on this series. It will definitely run hot so make sure you've got your case fan cooling in check. It's a solid built GPU for sure. It's THICC but fits my mid-size case perfectly. I was also surprised that it didn't sag. I bought a GPU support arm for the long term just in case if over time it decided to sag after all. The only additional investment I had to put in was in getting a new Power Supply for the new 16 pin connector. I didn't really need it, I could have just got the wire since my old one was modular, but I decided to play it safe just in case.

The RTX 5070 absolutely blew me away. I upgraded from an older GPU and the jump in performance is unreal. Games that used to struggle now run effortlessly at ultra settings and the ray tracing looks amazing without tanking the frame rate. Temps stay nice and cool and the fans are super quiet even during long gaming sessions. NVIDIA really nailed it with this card. Great efficiency, smooth DLSS 3.5 performance, and rock solid stability. It’s the perfect balance of power and value and easily one of the best upgrades I’ve made to my build. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a future proof GPU without spending a fortune.

I used this RTX 5070 because it was the largest MSRP model and utilized the most space I had available in my ITX/SFF case. Runs fairly quiet at full load on the Performance BIOS setting. Runs everything really good up to 4K. Clean black aesthetic. Stayed between 60-65°C under full load while running a few gaming benchmarks.

Value for money Graphic way better than gold these days haha VRAM enough for 2k try 4K and maybe work just fine! Cold like my brain haha no problem with temp even with Quite Mode

My computer is newer, I build my wifes about 3 years ago and she had a RTX 2060 in it, bought this for an upgrade. One of the games we play will video freeze for a second when you do a certain thing because it's loading a bunch of video data at once (poor game design) It's the only game that does this, anyway my RTX 4060 still video freezes for a few seconds while my wifes loads it no problem. It's a monster of a card so I am happy when she picked out a case she had plenty of room, also glad I oversized her PSU because I knew since GTX1070 the video cards where on the rise of power consumption again. This however is the first one that took (2) 8 pin connectors and uses a special connection to power the card. OUCH glad I had that handy, other cards only uses 6/8 pins If you buy this, you won't regret it as long as you have the room and the power, its great middle ground between price and performance, I don't really see any reason to spend anymore money on a higher end from what I have seen.

Perfect in every way. I didn't need one, just wanted it and bought just in case of any price spikes but I sure am glad I got it. It plays everything on Ultra at 100+ FPS 1440p no DLSS. Tested with DLSS and got even more FPS. Very happy with the purchase. There was a slight hint of a coil whine in a game I was getting over 300 FPS but I capped it 180 to my monitor refresh rate and it was gone. But it wasn't loud at all, I could slightly hear it. I wouldn't give it any less rating just for that minor , not loud issue. 100% would recommend for anyone looking for a decently priced GPU that handles all the current games at High/Ultra settings.

Es la grafica mas potente si tu presupuesto no es tan elevado, rinde de maravilla para juegos pesados y funciona para todo tipo de tareas.

Excelente tarjeta, aunque me saco un susto por que desinstale los drivers de mi tarjeta anterior una rtx 4060 con el DDU, sin embargo al conectar la nueva RTX 5070 daba pantalla negra, pense que no servia, luego regrese la antigua tarjeta y tampoco dio nada de video solo pantalla negra, pense que se habia dañado la tarjeta madre, pero lo que hize fue sacar la tarjeta, desconectar la PC, desconectar la pila y resetea el cmos, que mi b5550 asus prime es el CLRTC lo puenteas unos segundos, tarde unos 5 minutos sin la pila, volvi a conectar y gracias a dios ya dio video y todo normal, dejo esto por si a alguien le sirve el tip.

The 5070 is honestly a great GPU value in 2025. There's so much focus on the 12GB VRAM it has by reviewers and social media narratives online, but let me tell you that's it's more than enough for basically every game out there. There's plenty of great old and new games you can play on this GPU without an issue, and it will perform great and also efficiently. I have successfully played and completed many demanding games at both 1440p and 4K resolution with this card. DLSS is really a game-changer on many newer titles, and at 4K you can easily run it with 'balanced' or 'performance' mode and get huge FPS increases and VRAM reduction on this card as well. If you just tweak your settings a bit the whole card can handle every good game easily. At 4K in particular I have played games like Stellar Blade, Arc Raiders, Silent Hill 2, RE4, RDR2, The Last Of Us 1 & 2, Expedition 33, Elden Ring, Spider-Man, Assetto Corsa series and many others without a single issue or problem. Again just tweak your settings a bit folks, no need to max every single setting at 4K as DLSS really does work that good. Frame-gen although people have critcized also works very well on this card, especially on fast paced action games like Stellar Blade as I mentioned. Even without frame-gen many of these games I got running at 75-100 FPS at 4K and frame gen pushes it 150+ on many titles, especially at 1440p. In comparsion, many will recommend the AMD Radeon 9070 or 9070 XT because of 16GB VRAM or other stuff.. but here in Canada both of these cards are way overpriced and the drivers (still) suck to this day. No matter what anyone tells you, you can find tons of problems with AMD across games and applications at times, more so than you ever will with Nvidia. It might work for a while, but at some point something will break with it either due to a bad driver update by AMD or something to do with Windows 11 updates. These are just the facts.. even in 2025. AMD is NOT an equal product, and never have been. On paper, the numbers might look good with AMD at times, but the reality is always MUCH different in practice. I had tons of issues with AMD RX 6000 series, especially in Windows 11. It could never be fixed, and I did hours of troubleshooting and modifications. I'm reading about the same problems online with the AMD RX 9000 series.. just go searching around you'll find them. The Nvidia RTX 5070 has been completely 'plug and play' in comparison. Install the drivers and good to go without any extensive troubleshooting involved. The next thing to mention with AMD is FSR "support" simply sucks as well. Even if FSR 4 is supposedly 'on-par' with DLSS 4.. the support side simply is not there. Tech reviewers will cherry pick the games that actually support it, but many other games do not have the same level of support. Many games will still use FSR 2 or 3 or not even have an option to use FSR at all, meanwhile you can run the latest Nvidia DLSS on every game that has it and swap in the latest one on older games that use older DLSS versions via override and .dll swap. This simply cannot be done with AMD nearly as easily or as effectively. So the whole 'raw performance' argument doesn't hold up with AMD anymore.. in todays games upscaling tech is simply taking over.. and Nvidia is way ahead in this area and also performing better in ray-tracing as well.. which is also being used in many new games. So anyway, I could go on and on.. but the truth is the 5070 is simply a strong option for what you actually get for both gaming and daily computing work. It's reliable, much more power efficient, and simply works. There's more to it than just raw benchmarks or 12GB VRAM.. this card offers way more than the competition and at a routinely lower price as well. I'd highly recommend it to the educated and maximum dollar value shopper, you won't regret it.

Vengo de una 1050 ti que me dió muchos buenos momentos, pasarme a esta 5070 fue un gran salto para mí, bastante bien optimizado y pues la arquitectura Asus no falla tiene buena disipación de calor la gráfica casi no se me calienta lo máximo 65 grados si está a buen descuento lo recomiendo
