Nvidia RTX 5070 launches with limited MSRP availability

Nvidia launched the GeForce RTX 5070 today, March 5, at 6am PT. Retailers are offering a mix of cards, with a limited number priced at the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $549, while many third-party options are significantly higher. The Founders Edition card is available directly from Nvidia and Best Buy in the US. It features a compact design and is expected to be in high demand due to the scarcity of reasonably priced alternatives. Previous launches saw limited availability of MSRP models, raising concerns about stock levels for the RTX 5070. Retailers are advised to monitor multiple sources for potential purchases, as competition remains high.
