The RTX 5070 Ti finally cut price, but Amazon still won't hand over the card

The biggest real move today is the tracked RTX 5070 Ti. Amazon cut it from $1,269.99 on August 31 to $1,199.99 today, a clean 5.5% drop, which is enough to trip the market-move gate on its own. The catch is that the product page no longer gives a direct add-to-cart button, so the lower price is real but the purchase path is still messy. That makes the RTX 5070 Ti vs. RX 9070 XT comparison look even rougher, because the in-stock RX 9070 XT is sitting at $739.99.

Flagship pricing softened a little without getting friendlier. The tracked RTX 5090 moved from $5,299.99 to $5,199.00, but it is in the same buying-options state, no direct add-to-cart, no clean “just buy it” moment. Meanwhile the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell held at $15,499.99, so the RTX 5090 vs. RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell comparison is still a reminder that workstation pricing lives on another planet.

The rest of the story is all about where stock is actually available. The tracked RTX 5070 is $872.00 on Amazon, but again only through buying options, while the RX 9070 is a straightforward $689.99 in stock. The older RX 7800 XT surfaced at $808.98, then immediately showed as currently unavailable, so the value conversation keeps drifting toward the newer RTX 5070 vs. RX 9070 matchup instead of the older $800 class.
