The short version

The Prime RTX 5070 OC is a 304 mm, 2.5-slot card built around the 12 GB GeForce RTX 5070, with a default boost of 2557 MHz and SFF-ready compatibility. It uses one 16-pin connector and ASUS recommends a 750 W supply, a conservative figure. It suits 1440p gaming in small to mid-size cases; the caveats are 12 GB of VRAM and an ASUS US listing price well above the chip's list price.

Pros

  • SFF-ready compatible 304 x 126 x 50 mm body
  • Default boost of 2557 MHz, 2587 MHz in OC mode
  • Three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs plus HDMI 2.1b
  • Includes a 1-to-2 adapter cable

Cons

  • Only 12 GB of VRAM
  • Listed well above the chip's list price and out of stock when checked
  • Single HDMI port

Best for

  • 1440p gaming in compact builds

What reviewers and owners say

  • Tom's Hardware

    Mixed

    Founders Edition review covering the chip: sees roughly a fifth more speed than the RTX 4070 and a sensible list price, while worrying about real-world pricing, multi-frame generation claims and the 12 GB memory ceiling.

    Mixed

    On the RTX 5070: Tom's Guide finds the RTX 5070 a capable 1440p card with DLSS 4 benefits, but criticizes its 12GB memory, lackluster raw gains over the 4070 Super, and pricing that makes AMD rivals more appealing.

Common questions

What power supply does the Prime RTX 5070 OC need?

The maker recommends a 750 W power supply and lists one 16-pin connector. A 1-to-2 adapter cable is included.

Is 12 GB enough on the RTX 5070?

Tom's Hardware flagged the 12 GB ceiling as a drawback in its chip review; it is fine for most 1440p play today but offers less headroom than 16 GB cards.
