Full description and specifications

2640 MHz — the fastest RTX 5070 MSI ships

Quick Specs

  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU with 6144 CUDA cores.
  • 12GB GDDR7 memory at 28 Gbps on a 192-bit bus.
  • Boost clock of 2640 MHz — 98 MHz above the VENTUS and SHADOW.
  • 337 x 140 x 61 mm triple-fan VANGUARD cooler.
  • 650W recommended PSU, single 16-pin connector.

Top-binned silicon, biggest cooler

VANGUARD SOC — Super Overclocked — takes the best-binned 5070 chips and pairs them with a 337mm, 61mm-deep cooler. The result is 2640 MHz, the highest clock MSI runs on this GPU, held under sustained load rather than in bursts. If you are buying a 5070 to keep for several years at high refresh, this is the version with the most headroom.

Design and features

The VANGUARD styling is more industrial than the GAMING TRIO, with an ARGB accent and a substantial backplate. Underneath the specification is standard 5070: 6144 CUDA cores, 12GB of GDDR7 on a 192-bit bus, DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, and fourth-generation RT cores. At 337mm, confirm case clearance first.

FEATURES:

  • 2640 MHz boost clock — the highest of MSI's RTX 5070 range.
  • Super Overclocked binning for maximum sustained clocks.
  • 337mm triple-fan cooler with a 61mm-deep heatsink.
  • DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and fourth-generation RT cores.
  • ARGB lighting with Mystic Light support.

Questions

Before you buy

What size power supply do I need for this card?
MSI specifies a 650W power supply as the minimum for a complete system built around it. That figure covers the whole PC, not the card on its own, so if your current supply is at or above it you are fine. If you are close to the line, or the supply is an older unbranded unit, it is worth upgrading at the same time - an underpowered PSU shows up as crashes under load rather than a machine that simply will not start.
Will this card fit inside my case?
It is 337mm long. Check the maximum graphics card clearance for your case and make sure it is more than that - allow a little extra for the power cables that plug into the top or end of the card. Every case we sell lists its maximum card length on the Specifications tab, so you can compare the two numbers directly.
Which GPU is in this card, and how much video memory does it have?
This is a GeForce RTX 5070 with 12GB of video memory. Video memory is the buffer the card uses for textures and frame data, so it matters most at higher resolutions and with high-detail texture settings. The full clock speeds, memory interface and display outputs are listed under Specifications above.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
