Does the RTX 5070 Ti stand a chance against the RTX 4080 Super?
- The RTX 5070 Ti offers a more affordable high-performance midrange option compared to the RTX 5080 and RTX 5090, costing around $750 at launch.
- In contrast, the RTX 4080 Super launched at $999 but is currently scarce with prices exceeding $1,500 due to limited stock.
- Specifications comparison shows the RTX 5070 Ti with slightly lower CUDA, RT, and Tensor cores, and a slower boost clock speed than the RTX 4080 Super.
- However, the RTX 5070 Ti features faster GDDR7 memory, wider bandwidth, and lower power consumption thanks to Nvidia's Blackwell architecture.
- Despite having fewer cores, the RTX 5070 Ti compensates with improved memory and efficiency, supporting DLSS 4 and enhanced ray tracing.
- Initial performance tests suggest the RTX 5070 Ti offers comparable gaming performance to the RTX 4080 Super with marginal differences in framerates.
- While the RTX 5070 Ti may not provide a significant leap over its predecessor, it offers good 1440p performance and improved ray tracing for those upgrading from older GPUs.
- Nvidia's claims of matching RTX 4090 performance with the RTX 5070 have not been met, with limited stocks and prices exceeding the $750 suggested retail price.
- For those considering an upgrade, AMD's Radeon RX 9070 series is set to launch soon and might offer competitive pricing and performance options.
- Overall, while the RTX 5070 Ti falls short of some expectations, it still presents a viable option for gamers seeking a balance of performance and affordability.

Hope you weren’t planning to play PhysX games on Nvidia’s new 50-series GPUs
- Nvidia has quietly removed support for PhysX in its latest graphics chips, resulting in older PhysX games running faster on last-gen cards than on new RTX 50-series GPUs.
- PhysX, a GPU-accelerated technology, provided realistic physics simulations in a few dozen games including Mirror's Edge, Batman: Arkham games, Assassin's Creed, and Metro series.
- Without GPU acceleration, PhysX exhibits poor performance, leading to lower frame rates in games like Mirror's Edge, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City, and Cryostasis.
- While most modern games have alternative physics solutions, Nvidia's removal of PhysX support in the latest GPUs highlights limitations in the performance and value of the new RTX 50-series cards.
