MSI GeForce RTX 5070 SHADOW 12GB GDDR7 Black
82 out of 100 medium confidence 23 reviews
The MSI RTX 5070 Shadow 2X OC is widely praised as an excellent budget GPU for 1440p gaming, offering strong performance and a compact dual-fan design that fits smaller cases like the Alienware Aurora R11. Users report smooth frame rates on ultra settings in demanding titles like MSFS 2020/2024 and above-average 3D Mark scores. However, some note the price is steep for a mid-range card, with a recent markup from $880 to $902, and a few express concerns about cooling with only two fans.
