GeForce RTX 5070 Leak Shows Disappointing Jump Over Last-Gen

Expert Verified By

RTX 5070 Barely Faster Than RTX 4070!

Story Highlight
  • The GeForce RTX 5070 is expected to ship with 12GB of memory and 6,144 Cuda cores.
  • On the other hand, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti should come with 16GB of memory and 8,960 Cuda cores.
  • Both GPUs are expected to be priced similarly to their predecessors.

Nvidia is expected to debut GeForce RTX 50 series cards next month, but it’s unclear when the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 will be available. However, Zotac has previously stated that the RTX 5070 Ti will be available in the first quarter of next year.

In contrast, the RTX 5070 might be released later. As the wait continues, a reliable leaker has shared specifications for these two graphics cards, painting a grim picture of Nvidia’s mid to higher-mid-range offerings for the Blackwell gaming lineup.

Why it matters: The RTX 4070 and RTX 4070 Ti were criticized for their lackluster price and performance. The latest leak shows that history may repeat itself.

According to kopite7kimi, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti will come equipped with 16 GB GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit GDDR7 memory bus. It will also use the GB203-300 GPU, which has 8,960 CUDA cores.

Additionally, the card should consume 300W of power and is expected to match the GeForce RTX 4080 in performance, a graphics card ideal for playing games like Stalker 2 at 4K.

For gamers with less money to spare, the GeForce RTX 5070, which is rumored to utilize the GB205-300 GPU, would be a better choice. Do note that the number “300” implies that the chip is not complete.

It is anticipated that the card will have 6,144 CUDA cores and 250W of power consumption. The card will also come with just 12GB of memory, making it very similar to the last generation RTX 4070 Ti.

As for the GeForce RTX 5080, the card is expected to ship with 16GB GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit GDDR7 memory bus. Furthermore, the card will use the GB203-400 GPU and will consume 400W of power, making it a close competitor to the current flagship GeForce RTX 4090.

The RTX 5070 options are anticipated to go on sale after the RTX 5080 and RTX 5090, which should debut in January. That said, we advise you to take all this information with a grain of salt. Do remember that certain information may change eventually, even after launch, depending on the public’s reaction.
