MSI’s Gaming series cards no longer sit at the top of the company’s lineup—they’ve now moved into the mid-range segment. Still, they offer an excellent mix of features and performance. A card like the GeForce RTX 5070 is likely to be popular among gamers, as it should handle sub-4K gaming comfortably for the next few years and remains relatively affordable. Let’s see how the RTX 5070 12G Gaming Trio OC compares to other models we’ve already tested.

If you’d like to use more demanding ray tracing features on lower-end cards, you can enable FSR or DLSS, which renders frames at a lower sample count and reconstructs them to the target resolution using upscaling – better described as super resolution. For Ultra and RT Ultra, we choose the higher-quality Balanced mode; for RT Overdrive with path tracing, we use FSR in Performance mode.
