NVIDIA RTX 5070 GPU has its price cut in two countries - could this happen in the US, too?

NVIDIA's RTX 5070 has slipped under its MSRP in another country, this time in the UK - perhaps indicating that the mid-range Blackwell GPU might do the same in the US (and other regions besides) before long.

The Gainward Python III version of the GeForce RTX 5070 has had its price tag cut to £518.99 at Overclockers, a major UK retailer, as KitGuru noticed (via VideoCardz). On top of that, we also spotted that the Zotac Solid spin of the RTX 5070 has also been reduced to this level.

The RTX 5070 carried an official MSRP of £539 in the UK originally, but as VideoCardz was sharp-eyed enough to pick up, the official NVIDIA site in the UK now lists this GPU at £529.

At any rate, this is still £10 knocked off, or a 2% price reduction, and it's a potentially telling one regarding the popularity of the RTX 5070 - or lack of it, with many reviews being lukewarm as to where NVIDIA has pitched this particular Blackwell model (though not all of the feedback has been purely negative, by any means).

As mentioned, this isn't the first time we've seen the price slip below MSRP, because as Wccftech highlighted earlier this week, a Japanese retailer also dropped the price of a Palit Infinity 3 RTX 5070 by 3%.

Again, not a huge discount, but the fact that a Blackwell graphics card is under its recommended pricing in two countries is perhaps a sign that pricing is turning a corner, at least for this model. Indeed, the Gainward model at Overclockers UK is actually in stock (at the time of writing), even at this slightly reduced asking price.

Pricing may ease a little more, perhaps, and maybe US retailers will be jumping on this same discount bandwagon - although of course the economic turmoil currently being caused by tariffs and the ongoing trade war is muddying the waters.
