MSI, one of NVIDIA’s key board partners, has officially confirmed that the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti will be released on February 20, coinciding with previous leaks and rumors.
Countdown Begins for GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
The release date was confirmed on MSI’s French website, where a countdown timer has been dedicated to the launch of this highly anticipated GPU.
While specific product listings have yet to be added, the page’s URL clearly reveals the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card. This confirms the launch date and indicates that MSI is already preparing for the event.
What to Expect from the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti will replace the RTX 4070 Ti, utilizing the GB203 cut-down die. The GPU is expected to feature 8960 CUDA cores, 16 GB GDDR7 VRAM on a 256-bit memory bus, and a 300W TDP.
With a $749 price tag for the Founders Edition, custom models are expected to retail for slightly higher prices.
Early performance expectations suggest that the RTX 5070 Ti will compete closely with the RTX 4080 Super, as it is anticipated to offer a similar level of performance, with only a slight edge for the RTX 5080.
Rivalry with AMD’s Radeon RX 9070 XT
As the RTX 5070 Ti nears its launch, AMD is also preparing its own Radeon RX 9070 XT in response.
The RX 9070 series is expected to bring aggressive pricing and could challenge the RTX 5070 Ti in terms of both performance and value for money.
The competitive pricing of AMD’s RDNA 4 GPUs may put additional pressure on NVIDIA, particularly if AMD can offer better performance for a lower price.
Keep an eye out for the official release of the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti on February 20, when full details and performance benchmarks will be unveiled.
