MSI Launches Nvidia RTX 50-Series at Walmart Under Alias
If you're on the hunt for the latest Nvidia Blackwell graphics cards without breaking the bank, turning to the manufacturers directly is a smart move. MSI, a major player in Nvidia's AIB partner ecosystem, offers its products on the Walmart online marketplace through its subsidiary brand, "Raideals." You can find a range of graphics cards from the budget-friendly RTX 5060 Ti to the high-end RTX 5080, often at some of the most competitive prices available online.
It's important to note that even if a graphics card is listed at "list price," this might not reflect Nvidia's suggested launch price. For instance, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB was launched at $429, but MSI's version is currently priced at $609. This difference can be attributed to enhanced build quality, features like advanced cooling systems, and overclocking capabilities, as well as the manufacturer's markup. Unfortunately, these markups are a common reality in today's market, unless you're lucky enough to snag an Nvidia Founder's Edition card.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"Easily able to handle most AAA games at 1080p with all the eye candy turned up, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is a great mid-range graphics card. Just do yourself a favor and stay away from the 8GB version."

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 is complicated. It does what it says on the tin: play games at 1440p at a high frame rate. But the problem is that it doesn’t necessarily do that better than the RTX 4070 Super, or any other graphics card in this price range. It does add Multi Frame Generation, which is nice to have for anyone with a high-refresh monitor, but that alone isn’t worth the upgrade."

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"For the money, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is simply the best 4K graphics card for most people. It’s not only significantly faster than its predecessor, but DLSS 4 and multi frame generation will keep it relevant for years."

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 is an extremely competent 4K graphics card for its price. It’s just not quite the performance uplift that hardcore enthusiasts who upgrade every generation are going to want to see."
