If I had my way, I wouldnt be talking about theNvidiaGeForce RTX 5070 Ti right now.

Aesthetically, Gigabytes RTX 5070 Ti looks fairly industrial thanks to its gunmetal grey plastics and industrial vibes.

Is all that worth an extra $200 compared to MSRP?

Positively not, but some of you might be looking for that specific vibe regardless.

One element that I am slightly nervous about is the 12-pin power connector placement.

With every passing generation, it becomes harder to pass Nvidias is it 4K cake test.

The same applied to my Hitman 3 benchmark, with the 70-class card hitting 38fps versus 48fps.

Still, its nice to see that youre not losing too many frames when opting for the cheaper option.

Unless youre looking to completely satiate one of thebest gaming monitorswith 4K 240Hz abilities, thats plenty.

The RTX 5070 Ti also impresses in shooters like Marvel Rivals and Overwatch 2.

Across all my benchmarks, I couldnt get the card to rise above 62C.

However, its worth remembering that Nvidias MSRPs only apply to a small selection of models.
