The dawn of 2025 brought Nvidia’s Blackwell GPU architecture. Though it felt like a paper launch, the GPUs that came in the mid-range segment (if you go by MSRP, i.e.) are quite appealing to the average gamer.

Speaking of mid-range, the classic Nvidia trend continues, where we have powerful GPUs but paltry VRAM, such as the RTX 5070, which is quite capable and fairly priced (MSRP) but lackluster. On the other hand, the 5070 Ti delivers performance on par with the 4080 Super, but early impressions suggest it doesn’t bring much excitement.

Although the stock 5070 is quite powerful, it falls short of VRAM, so we have fine-tuned the settings to provide you with a great experience. Priced at $750 MSRP, the 5070 Ti offers a great option for a maxed-out native 1440p experience in The Last of Us 2 Remastered. The 5070 Ti can also do 4K with DLSS quality (High refresh rate gaming) at ease.

Note: Should you require a DLSS transformer model (for higher resolutions), you can be assured that everything mentioned here is given with swapping in mind. Regarding CPU recommendations, we suggest the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D or 7700X and beyond. From Intel, attest to 13600KF (tuned with high-speed DDR5) / 13700KF or better. Even in 4K, you will be CPU-bound in certain cases.
