While the Nvidia Blackwell launch got off to a shaky start in terms of stock and prices, we’re really glad to report that the supply situation has largely settled down in the UK, where you can now grab four of the new graphics cards at MSRP, and sometimes even lower. That means you can genuinely bag yourself an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 for £979.99, an RTX 5070 Ti for £729.99, and an RTX 5070 for just £499.99, and there appears to be plentiful stock of the cards at multiple retailers too.
Sadly, the situation in the US is still pretty dire, where Nvidia cards are still going for well above MSRP in most cases, but if you live in the UK, now is a great time to grab the best graphics card you can afford. I’ve picked out the best deals available in the country at the moment, and shared the details below. Unfortunately, the RTX 5090 is still only available for well above the ostensible £1,889 UK MSRP, but every other GPU can now be bought at the original asking price.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 deals
Launched at the same time as the flagship RTX 5090, the is still a capable 4K gaming GPU for a much lower price. It’s still not cheap at £979.99, but that’s significantly lower than the scalper pricing we’ve seen over the last few months. It’s also much cheaper than the RTX 4080’s original (and ridiculous) launch price of £1,189, and is more in line with the price of the later RTX 4080 Super.
Importantly, it supports the full Nvidia DLSS 4 suite, including multi frame gen, which can do a superb job of smoothing out frame rates if your starting point is high enough. In my RTX 5080 review, I found I could run Cyberpunk 2077 at 2,560 x 1,440 with every setting maxed out with path tracing, and still average 228fps, thanks to some help from DLSS 4 and multi frame gen, and it looks and plays really well at these settings.
At the moment, you can now grab a Palit RTX 5080 for £979.99 from Overclockers, and a Zotac Solid overclocked RTX 5080 for £999.95, with plenty of other cards available at slightly higher prices too. They seem to be going quickly, though, with “going fast!” flags denoting that the sub-£1,000 cards have sold over ten today.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti deals
With 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM at its disposal, the RTX 5070 Ti is a significantly better buy than the 12GB RTX 4070 Ti before it, enabling you to play games such as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle at 2,560 x 1,440 with the path tracing goodies enabled.
Equipped with 8,960 CUDA cores for rendering and 70 RT cores for ray tracing, it’s not far off the spec of the original RTX 4080 (9,728 CUDA cores and 76 RT cores), but at a lower price. If you’re looking for top 1440p performance and can’t run to the cost of the 5080, then this is a solid compromise.
If you get in quick, you can currently get yourself a Palit RTX 5070 Ti card for £728.99, or an overclocked version for £749.99. There’s also a Gainward 5070 Ti card going for £749.99, and plenty of other overclocked cards at higher prices too. That Palit card is selling quick, though.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 deals
With just 12GB of VRAM and some stiff competition from the identically priced 16GB Radeon RX 9070, my RTX 5070 review originally didn’t give this GPU an outstanding verdict, but the waters have now been muddied by the price of the 9070 increasing and the price of the 5070 dropping in the UK. The actual Radeon RX 9070 price is now £569.99, while a Gainward RTX 5070 can now be bought for just £499.99, and at this price the Nvidia GPU makes more sense.
If you can afford it, I’d still recommend buying the AMD GPU out of the two, and you can read my Radeon RX 9070 review to find out why, but if you can’t quite run to £569.99, the RTX 5070 is a decent GPU at its current price. Quite a few other cards are now available at reasonable prices, including this Zotac Solid RTX 5070 going for $517.99 as well.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti deals
Equipped with a massive 16GB of VRAM for just £399, the RTX 5060 Ti came as a pleasant surprise when it launched in April 2025, and in some ways it’s arguably a better option than the RTX 5070 thanks to its price and extra memory.
In my RTX 5060 Ti review, I found you could even enable some of the path tracing features in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on this GPU, and max out Doom Eternal with ray tracing at 4K. It can even cope with the huge demands of the Cyberpunk 2077 ray tracing Overdrive mode at 1,920 x 1,080.
You can currently pick up an MSI 16GB RTX 5060 Ti card for that £399.99 MSRP from Ebuyer right now, and there are several other MSRP cards up for pre-order on both Scan and Overclockers too.
