Nvidia has officially announced the release dates for its RTX 5070 series graphics cards. The RTX 5070 Ti will be available on February 20, while the RTX 5070 has been delayed to March 5, contrary to Nvidia’s initial plans. This information confirms earlier rumors circulating about the launch dates.
The RTX 5070 Ti will be available from third-party board makers and PC builders, starting on February 20, with no Founders Edition from Nvidia. On the other hand, the RTX 5070 will have a Founders Edition, but customers will have to wait until March 5 to order. The availability of these cards and their stock levels upon release remain uncertain.
The delay of the RTX 5070 may be a strategy to ensure a decent supply of the GPUs, especially considering the high demand expected due to the more affordable price tag compared to previous models. Rumors also suggest a delay for the RTX 5060 from March to April, adding to the uncertainties in Nvidia’s upcoming releases.
The accuracy of these rumors about the RTX 5070 series raises questions about Nvidia’s stock availability and potential competition with AMD’s RX 9070 launch. Overall, the rumor mill has been quite accurate in predicting developments around Nvidia’s new GPU releases.
