Looking to keep your next PC upgrade under $1,000? This might very well be the most powerful gaming PC without breaking that threshold. For Black Friday, Walmart is offering an iBuypower Slate RTX 5070 gaming PC for just $999 with free delivery. This is a $100 price drop compared to the previous historical low price I saw during October Prime Day and possibly the first time I’ve seen any RTX 5070 equipped prebuilt priced under $1,000. The RTX 5070 is an excellent choice for gaming at 1080p or 1440p, especially in games that support DLSS 4.
iBuypower Slate RTX 5070 Gaming PC for $999
The iBuypower Slate gaming PC is equipped with an Intel Core i5-14400F processor, GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. The Intel Core i5-14400F is a 14th gen Raptor Lake Refresh CPU with a max turbo frequency of 4.7GHz and 10 cores. This is a solid processor for both gaming and productivity work. It doesn’t run as hot as a Core i7 or i9 chip, so the 120mm tower heatsink and fan provides more than adequate cooling.
The GeForce RTX 5070 GPU is an excellent choice for 1080p or 1440p gaming
Compared to the previous generation GPUs, the RTX 5070 offers a slight performance improvement over the RTX 4070 Super, which was and still is an excellent GPU. The fps gain is much greater in games that support DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. At this price point, a prebuilt gaming PC is more likely to be equipped with an RTX 5060 or RTX 5060 Ti GPU, and the RTX 5070 is considerably more powerful than either. This is the best GPU for 1080p or 1440 gaming without overspending. It is fully capable of running non-demanding games at 4K resolution as well. The next card up – the RTX 5070 Ti – is significantly more expensive and really for gamers who want high fps 1440p or high-demand 4K gaming.
