The Acer Nitro 60 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC Drops to $1,920 at Best Buy - IGN

The ripple effects from RAM (and thus high-end GPU) shortages have continued to resonate throughout the PC industry. Unfortunately, this means that prices of prebulit gaming PCs are continuing to rise, not fall. Deals do still pop up, but not nearly as frequently as in prior months. For this week only, Best Buy is offering the Acer Nitro 60 RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC for $1,919.99 with free delivery after a $380 instant discount. This is one of the lowest prices I've seen for an RTX 5070 Ti prebuilt that also includes a capable CPU and a generous amount of DDR5 RAM and SSD storage. The complete specs include an Intel Core i7-14700F processor, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSD. The Intel Core i7-14700F is a 20-core processor with a max turbo frequency of 5.4GHz. Despite being a generation old, this CPU is still a great option for a gaming rig and upgrading to an Intel Core i9 processor will not give you any noticeable gains. It's cooled by a 120mm tower heatsink fan combo plus four additional 120mm chassis fans providing a ton of airflow to keep your components cool. The RTX 5070 Ti offers the best bang for your buck in terms of 4K gaming p
