GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC 12G Graphics Card, 3X WINDFORCE Fans, 12GB 192-bit GDDR6X, GV-N4070WF3OC-12GD Video Card

If you don't mind using DLSS then this card is a much better option than the similarly ranged AMD cards for a few reasons.Despite not having the same rasterization ability as the closest comparable AMD cards once you have DLSS turned on you will be getting significantly better frames than what you would be on the closest comparable AMD.This card is going to fit into more pre-built computers than equivalent AMD models because it has very low power supply requirement relative to the performance it offers. This GPU takes dainty sips of power and I didn't even have to upgrade my PSU in order to get it working. Conveniently, it also has a single 8-pin power connector.If power consumption is an issue for you either for monetary or environmental reasons this is an excellent choice.This card is very good at 4K for the price range. I've been getting over 120 FPS on older games like GTA V at 4K and on newer titles like Red Dead redemption 2 or Cyberpunk, with DLSS turned on, I'm getting in between 70 to 95 FPS at 4k.Some older but still demanding titles like Arkham Knight run in 120 FPS for a large portion of the game with drops only going down to the low 90s.I got this card specifically because I wanted to be able to get significantly more than 60 frames per second at 4K in the most demanding games at ultra settings.So far the card runs at in between 30 to 37° c when idle and the most I've seen it go up to under heavy load is 47°c. It is winter here so that may contribute to its low temperature but so far it has been excellentThe third point I'd like to make about why this is a good value GPU is that PC ports have become very problematic in recent years and having the Nvidia DLSS software to help mitigate the performance issues that accompany poorly optimized games for the platform is invaluable. If a game releases in a performance issue riddled state then being able to switch on DLSS and brute force it into a playable state is a lot better than just deciding not to play or playing with excessive performance issues.A feature I unexpectedly ended up loving was the Nvidia reflex and reflex boost. The improvement in input latency is surprisingly noticeable in FPS games and I hope that it becomes industry standard in the future.I have not found a single game that I cannot play on ultra with at least 60 FPS so I really could not be happier.

Bought this card when it went on sale, intended for a new high-end PC build. Once all my components arrived, I put it all together without the graphics card, installed the OS, all necessary drivers, etc. Let it run for a couple days to verify regular baseline operation (Ryzen 9 7950dx3, 64GB DDR5-6000, etc.).Then I added the GeForce RTX 4070 to my AM5 mobo and tried to figure out the power cabling. Tried all sorts of options, and the obvious 8-pin connector just wouldn't slide onto the card properly. Eventually my son tried a 6+2 pin pair of connectors - and they not only slid on nicely, the solution actually worked.It would have been TRIVIAL for the manufacturer to have included some "how to hook up power to this card" hints in the box. But no, nothing of use.Now it's installed and running (Win11 Pro), it's awesome. I can get 550fps on some HD games, as well as using it for massively parallel processing on some number-heavy applications. Very pleased with this.

A great card, and probably one of the most high value gfx cards, meaning you get the most performance per dollar. Keeps stable temperatures without any crazy fans in your case.It runs 2024 games at 1080p well but struggles to maintain 144 hz unless paired with high quality RAM, CPU, and in some cases NVME storage. The card won’t solve everything, make sure you have an overall good PC!The fan setup on this card is nice too.

Solid, runs every game I throw at it. Normal install, though missed that it didn’t need all the power as my 2070 so lower power consumption, which was a nice surprise. Had Togo figure that out once it was going.

This is a Really Good Graphic’s card, it had very fast Shipping and looks amazing the value for it is very affordable and i would recommend this to anyone starting off on a brand new high end build

Pretty solid performer for its price point. No issues with install or performance. Worth the $ for certain.

I'm very pleased with my Gigabyte Windforce RTX 4070 - it runs cool and quiet and rarely draws more than 175 watts playing WOT or RD2 at 1440p. If you're like me and air cool your system this is important. We rarely run the AC so I really need to be watchful of the BTUs that my system puts out. The 4070 should be fairly future proof for at least the next few years I wouldn't buy a GPU with less than 12G vram. Coming from a RTX 2070 Super it delivers a third more fps and runs much cooler doing it. If you don't need thermal efficiency I personally would look at the RX 6750 XT as it has 16G vram. But the AMD is like 335 watts v this card 215 watts. This card is a no frills unit - cool running but no RGB bling.

Good to have when the price isnt outrageous
