Nvidia RTX 5070 underwhelms with limited performance upgrade

arstechnica.com — March 4, 2025 at 03:01 PM UTC

Nvidia's new GeForce RTX 5070, priced at $549, does not match the performance of the RTX 4090 as previously claimed. It is only slightly faster than the RTX 4070 Super and has higher power usage. The RTX 5070 features 6,144 CUDA cores and a 256-bit memory bus, with a boost clock of 2,512 MHz. It is positioned as a viable option for 4K gaming with DLSS upscaling, but faces competition from AMD's new Radeon RX 9070 series. While the RTX 5070 offers some improvements over its predecessor, it lacks significant upgrades compared to the 50-series GPUs. Its performance may not excite consumers looking for more substantial advancements in this price range.
