Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070: Where to Buy

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5070, the first budget-friendly Blackwell GPU, is finally here, boasting the most attractive price yet in the 50-series lineup at $549.99. This marks Nvidia's fourth 50-series release, following the RTX 5080 and 5090 (January) and the RTX 5070 Ti (February). While the Founder's Edition arrives later this month, third-party cards should be available now.

However, Nvidia's history of inventory issues with the RTX 50-series continues. Retailers warn of shortages, and the threat of bots snapping up GPUs for resale at inflated prices remains. If you find one in stock, act fast.

TLDR; This article assumes, but doesn't guarantee, RTX 5070 availability. Expect potential sellouts.

Where to Preorder an RTX 5070 GPU

The listed retailers offer the RTX 5070, but stock is uncertain. To maximize your chances, check each site and purchase immediately. Competition will be fierce.

Best Buy

Best Buy is a strong contender, particularly for Founder's Editions, and often ships quickly.

Newegg

Newegg offers a wide selection of AIB cards, but check for "Newegg Direct" listings to ensure warranty eligibility. Bundle deals might increase your chances.

Founder's Edition availability here is usually very limited. Consider registering with Nvidia for potential notification advantages.

Amazon

Amazon's vast marketplace requires careful vetting; always buy directly from Amazon to avoid inflated prices or scams.

Adorama & B&H Photo

Adorama and B&H Photo may offer the 5070, but be aware that shipping times may be longer.

Micro Center (In-Store)

For those nearby, Micro Center offers in-store purchase options, but expect high demand.
