Abstract:
Recently, a Reddit netizen revealed his amazing experience of picking up leaks. He bought a brand new RTX 5070 graphics card at a Walmart supermarket for US$129 (approximately 918 yuan), which is less than one-sixth of the market price of the card.
It is understood that
this outrageous incident of leakage was caused by the wrong labeling by supermarket staff.
The original low price tag of US$129 was the exclusive price for the CORSAIR Conch 360 ARGB all-in-one water-cooling radiator, but the staff mistakenly posted it above the RTX 5070 graphics card shelf.
Since the graphics card is locked in the glass display cabinet and the label position is extremely misleading, according to local laws, offline retailers must strictly implement the price posted on the shelf. Even if the price is caused by human error, they have no right to refuse transactions, temporarily raise prices, or cancel orders.
Therefore, after weighing the situation, the store manager could only sell the RTX 5070 graphics card at a low price based on the wrong label.
In terms of performance, the RTX 5070 leaked this time is equipped with 6144 CUDA cores, equipped with 12GB GDDR7 memory, 192bit bit width, memory bandwidth up to 672GB/s, acceleration frequency up to 2542MHz, 250W standard power consumption, and native support for DLSS 4 super-resolution, real-time ray tracing and AI acceleration technology.
In terms of heat dissipation and expansion, this non-public version of the graphics card is equipped with a three-fan cooling module and a thickened metal reinforced back plate to prevent PCB bending and deformation. The interface is equipped with 3 DP 2.1b + 1 HDMI 2.1b, supporting up to 8K@165Hz and 4K@480Hz high-definition output.
In terms of transaction price, netizens originally only had to pay $129 (approximately 918 yuan) to get the graphics card. Out of consideration for the merchant's mistake, they took the initiative to increase the price and purchase the three-year extended warranty service of $59.
After adding taxes and fees, the final total cost was only US$198.97 (approximately RMB 1,416). Compared with the low price of US$819.99 (approximately RMB 5,836) for the same graphics card on Amazon,
This round of mistakes directly saved more than 4,400 yuan, which is equivalent to buying this 5070 graphics card at a fraction of the price.
