New RTX 5070 variant could help bolster GPU supply but it surely won't help prices
Nvidia is reportedly planning a new variant of the GeForce RTX 5070 using a cut-down GB203 GPU, aiming to improve graphics card supply. However, this change is unlikely to lower prices, with the card expected to continue retailing around $800, far above its MSRP. This move follows a pattern of Nvidia using larger chips for lower-tier cards without performance gains.
