Of the four Blackwell releases, the Nvidia RTX 5070 is the most affordable of the bunch, sitting in at a retail price of $549. Less expensive variants will undoubtedly be released later during the cycle but the next official announcement has yet to be made.

As with the 5070 Ti, 5080, and 5090 launches, a combination of high demand and low stock makes finding a 5070 almost impossible.

We had chances to buy the RTX 5070 this morning, but only if we paid $100 to $170 more than the $549 starting price.
