Asus RTX 5070 OC Falls to Record-Low $570 After Peaking at $760

3 articles · Updated · XDA Developers · Jul 6

Summary

  • $570 marks the lowest tracked price yet for Asus's RTX 5070 OC, a card that had stayed above MSRP for much of its time on the market.
  • The drop stands out because the same model had climbed as high as $760 amid persistent graphics-card demand and broader PC-part price inflation.
  • Performance remains the main draw at this price: the RTX 5070 delivers about a 20% uplift over the 4070 and can handle 1440p and some 4K gaming.
  • 100-plus fps in many AAA games at 1440p makes the sale more compelling for upgraders, though buyers coming from a 4070 may see only a modest jump.
