Starting this week, Dell is offering a Dell Tower Plus gaming PC equipped with a GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super graphics card for only $1,649.99 with free shipping. This PC can comfortably run games at up to 4K resolution, and it's considerably less expensive than a RTX 5070 Ti prebuilt, which would cost you well over $2,000 no matter where you buy it from.
Dell Tower Plus RTX 4070 Ti Super Gaming PC for $1,649.99
The Dell Tower Plus is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265 CPU, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265 processor has a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz with 20 cores and a 36MB cache. You can choose the more powerful Ultra 7 265K model for an additional $100 and that will automatically upgrade your cooling from "Standard" to "Advanced" air cooling, which features a more robust tower heatsink fan. Skip the Core i9 CPU upgrade, since gaming performace is usually GPU-bound, especially at higher resolutions. The entire system is powered by a 750W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super is a great card for gaming at any resolution, from 1080p all the way to 4K. At 1080p and 1440p you'll be able to achieve 144fps or beyond in most games, so it pairs best with FHD or QHD monitors with high refresh rates. 4K is a much more demanding resolution, but you should still be able to run most games at a consistent 60fps. Compared to the new Blackwell cards, the RTX 4070 Ti Super is significantly more powerful than the RTX 5070 and only about 10%-15% less powerful than the RTX 5070 Ti. The RTX 4070 Ti Super also has the same amount of VRAM as the RTX 5070 Ti and 5080, although it does use older generation GDDR6 instead of GDDR7.
This costs hundreds less than an RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC
Although the new RTX 5070 Ti GPU might be a bit faster, a prebuilt RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC will run you hundreds more than this deal. Right now, the least expensive gaming PC equipped with an RTX 5070 Ti GPU on Amazon runs for over $2,000, which means you're going to have to pay an extra $500+ for 10% improved performance.
