This launch date aligns with some previous rumors, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we were still waiting a while for both Nvidia’s mid-range Blackwell GPUs.

Nvidia’s RTX 50-series GPUs are just around the corner, with the first releases — the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 — dropping on January 30th. The RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 will follow that with their own releases in February, but some are already getting a sneak peek at the GPUs’ software benefits through DLSS 4.

Mark your calendars as Nvidia is apparently preparing to launch GeForce RTX 5070 Ti on February 20 with RTX 5070 likely following after.

The release date of the GeForce RTX 5070 remains unknown. Nvidia only roughly mentioned February for both 70-series graphics cards, without a specific date. The two top models GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080 can be sold by retailers from January 30th. However, availability is expected to be poor at the beginning.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti could be more of a force to be reckoned with than many expect with the RTX 50 series launch.

This suggests the RTX 5060 Ti will come with either 8GB or 16GB of VRAM, meaning Nvidia's mid-range GPU will see even further performance gains. If the leak is to be believed, Nvidia could offer both a cheaper version of the RTX 5060 Ti with 8GB of video memory and a more powerful 5060 Ti GPU with 16GB.

NVIDIA revealed new info surrounding its upcoming RTX 5000 GPUs, including non-DLSS performance. NVIDIA had one of the biggest announcements out of CES 2025, revealing its new 50-series RTX graphics cards. The new GPUs came with some bold claims, including RTX 5070 performance that could match the RTX 4090's power for a fraction of the price.
