Today's stats
#72 of 252 RTX 5070 PCs on value today (▼ 1 since yesterday)
Deal meter: 57/100
100 is its lowest price since we started tracking it, 0 its highest (23 days of prices).
Power cost: about $6.73 a month, $80.81 a year.
An estimate: about 410W from the wall while gaming (the RTX 5070's rated 250W, the CPU and the rest of the PC, through the power supply). 18¢ is about the 2026 US average; use the rate on your bill. Idle and desktop use draw far less.

Lines at 60 and 144 FPS: 60 is smooth, 144 fills a high-refresh monitor (bright green 144 and up, light green 60 and up, yellow under 60). "est." means an estimate, not a run on this exact PC: the average of Justin's tests of PCs with the same CPU and graphics card, or estimated from his benchmarks of similar cards. A number without it is Justin's own measurement of this exact PC. Any setting but Max, native, frame generation off is an estimate ("est."); with frame generation on, the number is frames shown, and "feels like" is the frames the PC renders. Every game we cover
