Nvidia is giving "Priority Access" to those buyers of RTX 5080 and 5090 FE GPUs. The case for the other GPUS like the RTX 5070 Ti is rather different: you need to quickly look for restocks.
Priced at $749 in the US and £729 in the UK, the GPU is available starting Thursday, Feb. 20. If you're planning to upgrade your gaming setup, you'll need to act fast—expect high demand and limited stock, just like the two previously mentioned GPUs.
Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti Restock: Where to Buy
Demand is expected to be astronomically high, so finding a brand-new RTX 5070 Ti at launch will prove difficult. The following are the best places to look for one, according to TechRadar's suggestion.
For US Buyers
- Nvidia: Buy third-party GPUs straight from Nvidia's site.
- Amazon: Early stock could sell out quickly, but is a good choice for later re-stocking.
- Best Buy: Several third-party RTX 5070 Ti cards.
- Newegg: Variety of Asus, Gigabyte, and MSI cards.
- B&H: Very limited stock alerts.
- Micro Center: Will be available in-store on Feb. 20.
- Adorama: Should list RTX 5070 Ti models as soon as they open.
For UK Buyers
- Nvidia: Direct sale of third-party models.
- Amazon UK: Should have stock in different configurations.
- Ebuyer: Already listing RTX 5070 Ti models, but pre-orders are not yet available.
- Scan: Carrying Zotac, Gigabyte, and others on launch day.
- Overclockers UK: Should sell RTX 5070 Ti GPUs from February 20 at 2 PM.
- Box.co.uk: Another trustworthy source for third-party stock.
- EE: To our surprise, this mobile network provider will be selling RTX 5070 Ti GPUs on a first-come, first-served basis.
Prebuilt Gaming PCs and Laptops with RTX 5070 Ti
If finding a standalone RTX 5070 Ti is tough, look to prebuilt gaming PCs and laptops with the GPU pre-installed. These might provide a better opportunity to acquire the card without scalper prices.
Speaking of scalpers, don't fall victim to eBay sellers who sell fake RTX 5090. Recently, we learned that they were preying on gullible gamers.
Keep an eye out for preassembled units from manufacturers such as:
- Alienware (Dell)
- MSI
- Asus ROG
- CyberPowerPC
- Origin PC
Retailers such as Newegg, Best Buy, and Amazon will most likely have RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptops and desktops soon.
Why the RTX 5070 Ti Is Worth the Upgrade
If you've been holding off on an upgrade because of the RTX 5080 and 5090's steep price tags, the RTX 5070 Ti delivers high-end performance at a more reasonable price. Here's what makes it a better choice than previous GPU models.
- Next-Gen Performance: Built on Nvidia's Blackwell architecture, offering improved efficiency and speed.
- 5th-Gen Tensor Cores: Optimized for AI-powered gaming enhancements like DLSS 3.5.
- Multi-Frame Generation: Smoother frame rates with better rendering techniques.
- Ray Tracing Enhancements: Improved real-time lighting, shadows, and reflections.
- Affordability: Priced at $749, it's a mid-range beast compared to other RTX 5000 series models that have price tags over $1,000.
Act Quickly Before It Sells Out
The RTX 5070 Ti is set to be one of the most in-demand GPUs of the year, and stock will vanish quickly. If you're serious about getting one, be prepared to refresh retailer pages, set stock alerts, and move fast when listings go live.
