As multiple board partners, including ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, and PNY, prepare custom editions of the RTX 5070 Ti, the market expects a diverse range of options. However, consumers should be mindful that premium versions may be priced higher than the Founders Edition. If supply shortages arise similar to those experienced with the RTX 5090 and 5080, expect inflated prices. Enthusiasts hope for a smoother launch for the RTX 5070 Ti.
