$10.68 per frame in Cyberpunk 2077 1440p Ultra, on the launch price.

The step down from the 5090 at half its launch price: a fast 1440p card, and about 43 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 at 4K Ultra without upscaling in Tom's Hardware's testing. Its 16 GB is the same as the cheaper RTX 5070 Ti and 5060 Ti 16GB, so for local AI it runs the same size of model, only faster. The gap to the 5070 Ti is smaller than the price gap - about 16% in Tom's Hardware's 1440p Cyberpunk 2077 test.
