MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16G Vanguard SOC review

The new GeForce RTX 5070 Ti goes on sale as the most affordable GeForce model with the Blackwell architecture to date. We’re looking at one of the best-equipped versions—the MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16G Vanguard SOC, a top-tier model from MSI. It features an extremely powerful cooler with massive headroom and excellent performance but comes at a price comparable to the RTX 4080 Super from the previous generation.

Frame rate has dropped by only 0.3 fps compared to OC mode.

Average GPU clock speed is about 2758 MHz.

The power consumption of the card also at the set limit, the average power consumption of the assembly varies only in the order of tenths of a watt.

Temperatures are only a few degrees higher.

The fan speed is on the low side at around 1270 rpm.



mVolt+ Unlocks Forbidden GeForce RTX 5000 Overclocking Options

Overclocking graphics cards is quite different from how “OC” works on CPUs. GPUs generally operate at fairly low voltages and clock speeds, and their overclocking is mostly artificially limited by various power or voltage limits in the drivers and firmware. The same is true of Nvidia’s current cards. But the artificial OC limits have now been bypassed, so it may be possible to extract significantly higher performance from them, although not without risks.

DLSS 5: First Game Out, Inner Workings and Performance Cost

The files of the AI game image enhancement technology DLSS 5 have leaked last week, and modders added the filter to the first games—unofficially. However, the official launch was not far behind. Nvidia has announced that it is now officially launching in the first game, NBA2K27, which is also the title from which the files previously leaked. Starting tomorrow, you will be able to try out what it looks like and what its costs are. Read more “DLSS 5: First Game Out, Inner Workings and Performance Cost” »

Nvidia plans GeForce RTX 5090 SE graphics. A chance for gamers?

A few days ago, we reported that the previously canceled GeForce RTX 5080 Super card is once again on track for launch. It was expected to be the fastest model in the Blackwell refresh lineup, but Nvidia is apparently preparing another model above it. However, it will not officially carry the “Super” designation, since it will be a cut-down sibling of the flagship GeForce RTX 5090. As such, it could prove to be an attractive card for gamers.

    1. I’d like to start measuring it again in a few months in some form, but right now, that’s almost impossible because I’d need to measure all relevant cards for comparison with new ones and add more games and benchmarks. Plus, we’d also need to buy another Umik for that.

    2. I believe that sooner or later, spectral sound analysis will return to graphics card testing. However, as Adam writes, there are currently other priorities, and the methodology will evolve and become more refined over time. And let’s trust that, within this framework, we will once again have an exact overview of coil whine noise level as well. 🙂

  1. Hey man thanks for the deep analysis. Out of all the 5070 Ti, if you had to pick one and price is not an issue, which one would it be?
