The RTX 5070 Ti lineup at Evetech is deliberately narrow: three standalone cards, all within R1,000 of each other, plus one complete gaming PC built around it. That narrowness is the point. The RTX 5070 Ti price starts at R17,999, and every card in the range carries the same 16GB of GDDR7, so this is a tier where the brand and clock speed matter more than memory size. Here is what the current lineup costs, and who should actually be looking at it.

Quick Answer

The RTX 5070 Ti is available at Evetech from R17,999 including VAT, with 4 listings in stock covering three standalone cards and one complete gaming PC. Every card runs 16GB of GDDR7 on the same GPU core, so there is no capacity decision to make, only a choice between Palit and PNY and how far each is factory overclocked. This card is built for high-refresh 1440p gaming and comfortable entry-level 4K, positioning it as the practical step up from the RTX 5070 for buyers who are not ready to spend RTX 5080 money.

💰 Current RTX 5070 Ti prices in South Africa

Prices verified 16 July 2026. These are in-stock models at Evetech, cheapest first, and every price includes VAT.

  • Palit GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GamingPro-S 16GB GDDR7 Graphics Card: R17,999
  • Palit GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GamingPro-S OC 16GB GDDR7 GPU: R18,799
  • PNY GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GDDR7 Overclocked GPU: R18,999
  • Ryzen 9 9900X + RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC - 16GB: R47,144

The gap between the base Palit GamingPro-S and its own OC variant is roughly R800, almost entirely down to a higher factory boost clock rather than any hardware difference. The PNY sits within R200 of the Palit OC card, so at this tier the honest advice is to buy whichever is in stock rather than agonise over a few hundred Rand.

🎯 Where the RTX 5070 Ti fits between the RTX 5070 and RTX 5080

This card exists to answer a specific question: is the standard RTX 5070 not quite enough, but the RTX 5080 too much money? The extra memory bandwidth and CUDA cores over the RTX 5070 give it a real advantage at 1440p in demanding titles and make entry-level 4K genuinely usable rather than a stretch. If your budget sits closer to R12,000 to R14,000, the RTX 5070 remains the better value pick for 1440p. If you can push past R18,000 and want real 4K headroom rather than an occasional dip into it, the RTX 5080 is worth comparing directly. The Ti sits precisely in the gap between those two decisions.

🖥️ 1440p and entry 4K: what this card is actually built for

At 1440p, the RTX 5070 Ti runs current titles at high settings with room to spare, and the 16GB frame buffer means you are unlikely to run out of memory before you run out of GPU. At 4K the picture changes: this is where the Ti earns its premium over the standard RTX 5070, but it is also where DLSS 4 stops being a bonus and starts being the thing doing the heavy lifting. Expect to leave it on rather than treat it as optional, and expect the most demanding native 4K settings to still ask you to compromise somewhere. Pair it with a 750W or 850W power supply from a reputable brand, and a CPU that will not bottleneck it, a Ryzen 7 or Core i7 class chip is the sensible minimum at this price point.

🖥️ Buying the card or the complete Ryzen 9 build

The Ryzen 9 9900X machine at R47,144 is a full gaming PC, not a card, and it is worth understanding why the jump is so large: you are paying for a flagship CPU, case, motherboard, RAM and storage alongside the GPU, not a markup on the card itself. If you already own the rest of a capable system, buying the card alone is the cheaper route. If you are starting from nothing, comparing this build against assembling the same specification piece by piece is worthwhile before deciding.
