The RTX 5070 is a mid-range GPU option available to gamers for 2025. It incorporates the Blackwell architecture, which offers minor improvements over the 4070 Super. It still features 12GB of VRAM on a 192-bit memory bus, indicating that nothing has changed for gamers, as the usual issue of running out of VRAM remains. For Expedition 33, gamers looking to play at everything maxed, considering they paid around $800 for a GPU, need to refer to the settings below to keep everything realistic.

Note: For optimal image quality, using DLSS 4 is recommended. This will help clean up UE 5 issues such as shimmering, artifacts, ghosting, and temporal instabilities within the image.

A few keynotes to consider:

  • Slightly lower Shadows and Global Illumination to use DLAA for better image quality.
  • Use the Transformer model to fix ghosting, smearing, and temporal instability in UE5.
  • Avoid native TAA; it makes the image look soft and blurry. Use DLAA instead.
  • Adjust sharpness carefully; high sharpening values past 1080p resolution can cause over-sharpening, making the image over-processed and hard to look at.
  • Frame Generation with lossless scaling helps smooth out micro-stutters, but won’t entirely eliminate them.
  • Expect 85–90 FPS at 1440p with a 5070.
  • Watch your 1% and 0.1% lows when changing visual settings.
  • Use a strong CPU; anything weaker than a Ryzen 5 5700X or Core i7-10700K will bottleneck.
