MSI Gaming RTX 5070 12G Shadow 2X OC Drops to $499 on Amazon; The Lowest Since Launch

NVIDIA's best mid-range card in the GeForce RTX 50 series lineup just got a massive discount. If you missed the Amazon Prime Days or the Newegg Fantastech Sale, you don't need to worry, because there are still excellent GPU and CPU deals going on. These are limited-time deals, so the price may go up at any time, but if you are seeing this post right after its published time, you may be lucky to get the RTX 5070 for the lowest price ever.

The MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 5070 12G Shadow 2X OC edition is currently at an incredible $499 on Amazon. This is $50 lower than the official MSRP of the base edition, but the MSI GPU is not only at its lowest, it's also a factory-overclocked GPU, which offers up to 2557 MHz of boost clock. One should keep in mind that to buy this GPU at $499, one must have an Amazon Prime membership.

If you have one, then you shouldn't wait anymore and grab the GPU as soon as possible. The GeForce RTX 5070 is one of the strongest mid-range GPUs and probably the best value card at $500. It offers 6144 CUDA Cores, 12 GB GDDR7 RAM, and the latest Tensor and RT cores for incredibly good gaming performance at 1440p. The GPU can deliver high frame rates in intensive modern triple-A titles, including Battlefield 6, where it delivers ~80 FPS on Overkill Preset at 1440p. This is why we recommended it as the best mid-range GPU for the Battlefield 6.

The Gaming Shadow 2X OC edition brings a dual-fan design, featuring TORX Fan 5.0 for improved air pressure and high airflow. The GPU is fairly compact, measuring just 231mm in length, making it perfect for compact PC cases. That said, if by any chance you miss this great deal, you can get the PNY RTX 5070 OC Triple fan for just $539, and the ZOTAC Gaming GeForce RTX 5070 Solid OC for just $540.
