Where to buy Nvidia’s RTX 3070 graphics card, starting at 6AM PT on Thursday
Source: The Verge added 28th Oct 2020If you’re hoping to buy the $499 RTX 3070, Nvidia tells us that you’ll be able to do that starting on Thursday, October 29th, at 9AM ET / 6AM PT. And instead of Nvidia directly selling its Founders Edition (FE) GPU through its online store, it has ceded its stock to Best Buy and Micro Center. If your hunt for the GPU isn’t limited to the FE version, several third-party graphics cards made by OEMs like Gigabyte and PNY will go on sale at the same time from a few other retailers like Amazon, Newegg, and B&H Photo, in addition to Best Buy and Micro Center. And based on past launches, these will probably sell out very quickly.
Compared to the 4K-capable RTX 3080 and 3090, this card is an especially good choice if you have a 1440p gaming monitor or see yourself getting one soon. My colleague Tom Warren posted a review of the 3070, and it put up favorable frame rates on popular games like Control, Call of Duty: Warzone, and more — even with ray-tracing features activated. In most cases, the $499 card provided faster performance than the RTX 2080 that debuted for $699 a few years ago.
- Best Buy will begin selling the RTX 3070 Founders Edition graphics card and other models online only (though you may be able to have it shipped to your local store) starting at 9AM ET / 6AM PT on October 29th. Here’s where you can find all of the models that will be available.
- Micro Center will sell the RTX 3070 GPU in store only, but you can place your order for pickup at your local store (if you have one nearby) starting the same time as Best Buy.
- You should definitely keep this Amazon page open, which will showcase all of the RTX 3070 options from OEMs. It currently just lists a few from PNY, but if you’re early to visit this page on the 29th, you’ll likely find more to choose from.
- B&H Photo will likely have several RTX 3070 options to choose from. It currently lists two Gigabyte models that will be available starting tomorrow.
- Newegg hasn’t hinted which RTX 3070 models it will stock, but you’ll likely be able to find them all here once they’re available tomorrow.
We’ll update this post if more major retailers join in selling the RTX 3070.
