You don't need to wait until Amazon Prime Day to find on a deal on a powerful gaming PC that can play the latest and greatest games in 4K. In fact, there's no guarantee there will even be a good prebuilt deal during that time period. For a limited time, Walmart is offering the MSI Codex Z2 gaming PC, equipped with a GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU, for just $1,749 with free shipping. RTX 5070 Ti PCs usually cost over $2,000, especially since the card alone runs for close to $1,000.
The Least Expensive RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC
The MSI Codex Z2 gaming PC is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F CPU, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a fast 1TB SSD. The Ryzen 7 8700F is an 8-core, 16-thread processor with a max boost clock of 5.1GHz. It's not the fastest or newest AMD CPU, but it's still a solid gaming CPU that won't bottleneck the GPU, especially at the higher resolutions you should be playing at if you own a 5070 Ti. A 750W 80Plus Gold PSU powers the system.
The RTX 5070 Ti GPU offers excellent 4K gaming performance
The RTX 5070 Ti is our best reviewed Blackwell card because it offers the best bang for your buck in terms of 4K gaming performance. It performs neck-and-neck with the previous generation RTX 4080 Super and pulls ahead in any game that supports multi-frame generation, especially with the recent DLSS 4.5 update. It is fully capable of running any game in 4K at 60fps, including Death Stranding 2 and Crimson Desert. The RTX 5070 Ti also comes equipped with 16GB of VRAM like the RTX 5080, making it viable for AI work. Since this GPU is impossible to find as a standalone card for under $999.99, buying a prebuilt computer is the only way to avoid a markup.
