PNY's RTX 5070 GPU falls $50 below its MSRP launch price — grab one quickly via Walmart while stocks last
We originally listed the MSI Shadow 2X OC RTX 5070 12G in this deals article with a limited stock. Turns out that deal was indeed limited, as Walmart increased the price back up to $535.99. Luckily, another RTX 5070 GPU dropped to the same $499 low price, so we've swapped them around.
It's only been a couple of weeks since we left Black Friday and Cyber Monday in the rear view mirror, and although it wasn't the most amazing year I've seen for deals on tech, there were some deals to be had, and this year it was on graphics cards, certainly not on RAM. Hitting all-time lows in the sales, the RTX 5070 especially had some great prices popping up, and the good news is that after a lot of that stock ran out, there seems to be new stock available. Today at Walmart, you can purchase the PNY GeForce RTX 5070 OC Triple Fan for just $499, a solid $50 below its MSRP launch price, and way under what the cards were initially selling for.
The PNY GeForce RTX 5070 OC Triple Fan features a compact triple-fan design with an all-black finish on the shroud. It packs 6,144 CUDA cores, 12GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus, and reaches boost clock speeds of up to 2,557 MHz. The rated power draw of this card is up to 250W, so you don't need a giant power supply to run it.
A mid-tier entry for the 50-series lineup, the RTX 5070 12GB comes with enough VRAM to play your favourite games. PCIe 5, 6144 CUDA cores, and a triple-fan cooling setup.
With the below chart, you can see how the RTX 5070 compares against other GPUs in some of our games benchmarking tests, from 4K to 1080p Ultra settings. The RTX 5070 is a competent gaming card that holds the mid-tier position in the stack and performs exceptionally well in the 1440p sweetspot. Pairing good framerates and smooth gameplay with high settings and graphical fidelity.
In our review of the RTX 5070, we found that in our gaming benchmarks, the 5070 delivered a notable performance boost over its predecessor from the previous generation, offering 19% faster performance than the RTX 4070 at 1440p, with a wider gap of about 22% at 4K resolution.

This is obviously a sponsored article, but that said if you are coming off a 2019 GPU like I was (for me an RTX 2060) then the RTX 5070 will give ~3 times the fps vs what you were getting in 2019.
