I have an older PC setup with an i7-8700 and I just got a 5070 Ti graphics card. I need recommendations for motherboards that can accommodate both components without having to upgrade my CPU right now. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Your existing motherboard should work with the 5070 Ti, but since your i7-8700 is a bit outdated, you might not see the GPU performing at its best. It's worth checking if compatibility is an issue or not.
I only play games like Marvel Rivals and Fortnite on low settings, so I guess it won't be too much of a problem for me.
If your current motherboard won't fit, consider looking for a larger one. Any Z370 or Z390 ATX motherboard should work well with your setup. You might find good deals on used ones too!
Thanks for the info! I'll keep an eye out for those options.
I tried to plug mine in, but the mini gigabyte motherboard I got is too cramped. Just a heads up!
