ASUS 90YV0MD0-M0NA00

The ASUS TUF RTX 5070 Ti delivers a PassMark G3D score of 32,373 and 92nd percentile ray tracing, making it one of the best gaming GPUs in our database. Owners rate it 4.7 out of 5 and consistently praise its quiet, cool operation. But the 20th percentile affordability ranking and a USD 734 price spread in the US mean you need to shop carefully to avoid overpaying.

The 5070 Ti's 8,960 CUDA cores and 2,650MHz boost clock translate into a PassMark G3D score of 32,373, which lands in the 89th percentile for raster performance. That's not just good, it's one of the best on the market right now. The 16GB of GDDR7 with 896 GB/s of memory bandwidth means you won't be texture-starved at 4K, and the 43.94 FP32 TFLOPS gives it serious compute headroom for anything beyond gaming too.

Ray tracing sits at the 92nd percentile, which is a standout result. DLSS 4 support helps push frame rates even further, and the 3x DisplayPort 2.1 plus 2x HDMI 2.1 outputs give you connectivity options that rank in the 99th percentile. That's best-in-class territory. The 300W TDP is manageable, though the thermal ranking at the 52nd percentile suggests the TUF cooler is solid but not exceptional. You'll want an 850W PSU to keep things stable.

Against the MSI Ventus RTX 5070 Ti, the TUF variant brings better build quality and a quieter cooler, but you'll likely pay more for it. The Gigabyte AORUS RTX 5080 and ZOTAC APOCALYPSE RTX 5080 are a step up in raw performance, but they also demand a bigger wallet and more power. The Sapphire NITRO+ and PNY ARGB OC are interesting alternatives if you're willing to trade some of the TUF's polish for a better price. The TUF's 99th percentile connectivity and 92nd percentile ray tracing make it the most well-rounded of the 5070 Ti crowd, but the 20th percentile affordability means you're paying for that polish. If you can find it near the low end of the price range, it beats the MSI Ventus on build quality alone. If you're seeing prices near the top, the RTX 5080 options start looking less absurd by comparison.

Value is where this card gets complicated. The affordability ranking sits at the 20th percentile, which is rough. In the US, prices range from USD 1,299 to USD 2,033 across just two listings. That's a USD 734 spread for what should be the same product. If you're shopping in the US, the lower end of that range is the only price that makes any sense. European buyers see a tighter but still significant EUR 350 gap between EUR 1,500 and EUR 1,850. The card itself delivers performance that justifies a premium, but paying anywhere near the top of these ranges is hard to swallow. Shop around and be patient, the deals exist but they're not obvious.

The ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 5070 Ti lands with a PassMark G3D score of 32,373, which puts it in the top tier of our database for raw raster performance. That's paired with 16GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus pushing 896 GB/s of bandwidth, so 1440p and 4K gaming are both comfortably in its wheelhouse. Our gaming scores back that up: 94.7 for 1080p, 93.9 for 1440p, and 92.2 for ray tracing. This is a card that handles modern titles without breaking a sweat.

But here's the thing. The affordability ranking sits at the 20th percentile, and the price spread tells the story. In the US, you're looking at USD 1,299 to USD 2,033 across just two listings. That's a wild gap for the same silicon. Owners love the card itself, but the price tag keeps coming up as the main sore spot. It's a great GPU that's hard to recommend without a flinch when you see the checkout total.

If you're on a budget, look elsewhere. The 20th percentile affordability ranking is not a fluke. With US prices ranging from USD 1,299 to USD 2,033, you could easily overpay by hundreds of dollars for the same card. If you're doing heavy AI or LLM work, the 75.7 out of 100 score in that area is the weakest point of this GPU, and there are better options for that workload. And if you're still on a 1080p monitor with no plans to upgrade, this card is overkill. The 94.7 gaming score at 1080p is impressive, but you're paying for 4K capability you won't use. Save your money and grab something cheaper.

The ASUS TUF RTX 5070 Ti is a genuinely excellent graphics card held back by a brutal price tag. The performance is there: 32,373 PassMark G3D, 92nd percentile ray tracing, and 16GB of fast GDDR7. Owners love it, with a 4.7 out of 5 rating across 240 reviews. But the affordability ranking at the 20th percentile is the elephant in the room. If you can find it at the low end of the USD 1,299 to USD 2,033 range, it's a strong buy. At the high end, you're paying scalper prices for a card that should cost far less. Wait for a deal or consider a competitor if patience isn't your thing.
