Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 review: No, it’s not “4090 performance at $549”

It’s not all bad news, but in many ways, this is barely an upgrade.

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered and Cyberpunk 2077 in Overdrive mode with DLSS turned off both gave abnormally low or otherwise strange numbers—we've presented those here for the sake of transparency, and we've communicated our findings to Nvidia, but we'd take these with a grain of salt when comparing results. Soon we'll know whether the RX 9070 series will exert a similar pull—or if it can actually manage to wrest some market share back from Nvidia after years of trending in the wrong direction.
