- Finnish retailer has posted a launch date for RTX 5070 Ti
- The Nvidia GPU is supposedly set to reach on February 20
- With no point out of a date hooked up to the RTX 5070, this may gas different rumors that this vanilla graphics card might slide to March
Nvidia’s RTX 5070 Ti hasn’t been given an official launch date past February, however a European retailer has revealed when it thinks the GPU will go on sale – specifically February 20.
Add your individual salt now, however the retailer is Proshop over in Finland (which not too long ago aired purported particulars on third-party RTX 5080 pricing, too), and it has that on-sale date for the entire many third-party RTX 5070 Ti graphics playing cards that it will be promoting.
With the RTX 5090 and 5080 hitting cabinets on January 30, that will theoretically imply a three-week hole between these higher-end graphics playing cards, and the mid-range Blackwell providing, happening sale.
I hoped for a smaller hole between these launches, because it’s the mid-range I’ve my eye on for my PC improve early this yr. Though as ever, we should be skeptical about any retailer leak resembling this, as Proshop might have unsuitable or outdated data, or may simply be guessing and have shoved in a placeholder date. And to be clear, Group Inexperienced has thus far solely instructed us the GPU will arrive in February.
Evaluation: One date current, one date lacking
What’s fascinating to notice is that whereas the RTX 5070 Ti has had this date of February 20 hooked up to the GPU, the vanilla RTX 5070 hasn’t. Proshop hasn’t pinned a date on this lower-tier taste but.
Does that imply something? Nicely, perhaps not (and we are able to’t even assume the date means something for the RTX 5070 Ti both). Nonetheless, dropping into indulgence mode right here, I suppose it’s doable to learn it as a touch that the RTX 5070 may very well be additional out. If that GPU was arriving earlier than February 20, or on that day as nicely, it appears seemingly Proshop would’ve displayed that too. If it’s later and nonetheless to be confirmed, the retailer would simply go away it clean, because it has achieved.
It is also price taking into account that we’ve simply reported on a rumor that matches with this line of hypothesis. Particularly that the RTX 5070 Ti is outwardly set to reach mid-to-late February, which February 20 matches up with properly – and moreover, that the RTX 5070 won’t go on sale till early March.
Granted, I really feel the latter rumor stays very tenuous, and I’d strongly warning towards going too far with this concept proper now. But it surely’s not unthinkable that the RTX 5070 may flip up later than the RTX 5070 Ti, and there’s been a rumor prior to now that that is the plan.
It’s fairly doable that Nvidia hasn’t made the ultimate determination but, and continues to be ready to make a definitive name, which is (after all) why we weren’t handled to any particular dates at CES 2025 past simply February.
Regardless of the case, I hope the RTX 5070 makes the reduce for late February, as promised, fairly than sliding to March (and Nvidia will certainly need this too – because the latter state of affairs means a direct conflict with AMD’s RX 9070 GPUs, fairly than getting out forward of them).
