Nvidia RTX 5070: Where to Buy Now

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, be warned: Nvidia's history with the 50-series suggests potential inventory issues. Retailers have already hinted at shortages, and the threat of bots snapping up stock for resale at inflated prices remains.

If you're determined to buy and lucky enough to find one in stock, don't hesitate. Pre-built PCs featuring the RTX 5090 might offer a more readily available alternative.

**TLDR:** This article assumes, but doesn't guarantee, RTX 5070 availability. Be prepared for potential sellouts.
