Introduction
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is launching here in February of 2025, and we’ve got a fresh review of the brand new ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti video card with an MSRP of $749. For those who are unfamiliar with the brand new GeForce RTX 50 series announced at CES 2025, in addition to the 2 previous GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080 GPUs recently launched, we now have reviews of each of the Founders Edition on this site you’ll be able to try as well.
The GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs based on the Blackwell architecture were announced at CES, and the primary to launch was the GeForce RTX 5090 because the flagship GPU this generation at a high $1,999 MSRP. The second to launch was the GeForce RTX 5080, which was cut down in half, in spec, and priced at $999 MSRP. Now, the following GPU down within the series is being launched, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti which has an MSRP of $749. The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is exclusive, because it is a partner-only card, meaning there is no such thing as a Founders Edition of this card, only manufacturer cards. Today, we’re reviewing an MSRP model from ASUS within the PRIME series lineup.
The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti utilizes the GB203 GPU based on the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture and is the successor to the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti and GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER based on the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture. The GB203 die is identical one utilized in the GeForce RTX 5080, scaled down in specification to satisfy the needs of this tier at $749. GB203 relies on the TSMC 4nm 4N NVIDIA custom process, which is identical because the previous generation Ada Lovelace. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti supports a PCI-Express 5.0 (Gen5) interface.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti consists of 6 GPCs, 35 TPCs, and 70 SMs with 128 CUDA Cores per SM. While you add all this up, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti has 8,960 CUDA Cores, 280 fifth Gen Tensor Cores, 70 4th Gen RT Cores, 96 ROPs and 280 Texture Units. The L1 Data Cache/Shared memory size is 8960KB, and the L2 cache size is 49152KB. The GPU Boost Clock is about at 2452MHz. Memory consists of 16GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit memory bus at 28Gbps giving it 896GB/s of memory bandwidth. The TGP (Total Graphics Power) is 300W.

ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Information
The complete product name of the video card we’re reviewing is the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GDDR7 (PRIME-RTX5070TI-16G). That is an “MSRP model”, indicating that the MSRP shall be the reference $749 NVIDIA MSRP. This video card doesn’t have a factory overclock, it’s clocked on the default GeForce RTX 5070 Ti boost clock of 2452MHz, though it’s a custom-built video card from ASUS, with custom cooling and features, we’ll go over them below.
Specifically only taking a look at the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti variants ASUS has available, you’ll find there are only 4 specific cards. There are two TUF Gaming model RTX 5070 Ti’s, and two PRIME RTX 5070 Ti’s. There’s a base-clock model and OC model offered in each the TUF Gaming and PRIME models for the RTX 5070 Ti. Subsequently, ASUS does have an OC version of the PRIME (which we would not have here today), compared to the base-clocked model. Though, it needs to be noted that you could use ASUS GPU Tweak III on each PRIME cards to enable a software OC mode, or enable manual overclocking.
ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Pictures
Contained in the box of the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti you’ll discover a Speedsetup Manual, ASUS Velcro Hook & Loop, Thank You Card, and an influence adapter.
The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti measures 304x126x50mm (12x5x2in). If we compare that size to the ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER we’re using as a comparison on this review, they each measure in at the identical length, however the TUF Gaming is wider and taller, the PRIME is unquestionably more narrow and fewer tall, thus capable of fit into smaller cases easier. ASUS recommends a 750W PSU for this video card.
As we mentioned, the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti runs on the default reference clock speed of 2452MHz. Nevertheless, inside GPU Tweak III you’ll be able to hit a button to enable an OC Mode immediately of 2482MHz with none trouble, and really easily, for a slight boost.
The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti also uses ASUS GPU Guard and Bracket, which applies adhesive to secure all 4 corners of the PCB to cut back the chance of cracks, and the GPU brackets to make sure uniform mounting pressure. There’s a full protective backplate that also utilizes thermal pads to transfer heat and a Stainless Steel I/O bracket. When it comes to I/O, there are 3x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1x HDMI 2.1b. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti comes with a 3x 8-pin PCIe to 16-pin 12VHPWR 2×6.
