Upon initial inspection, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti EX Gamer White edition may not appear significantly distinct from the two larger RTX 40 Series models produced by KFA2 and GALAX. However, upon closer examination, minor changes become apparent. One such difference is the use of fans of varying sizes.

Despite this, the graphics card remains capable of effectively cooling the GPU, as its TDP does not exceed 285 watts. With a three-slot form factor, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti occupies a significant amount of space within a case. The model's EX GAmer branding is reflected in its lack of RGB lighting, resulting in a somewhat more simple appearance. Power delivery is facilitated by the same 12VHPWR connector used in some newer Nvidia GPUs. For those who lack a modern ATX 3.0 PSU with a native 12VHPWR connection, a 2x6+2 pin PCIe to 12VHPWR adapter is included. The KFA2 GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SG's backplate features one HDMI 2.1a port and three DisplayPort 1.4a ports.

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti has 12 GB of GDDR6X memory that works at 21 Gbps offering 504 GB/sec of memory bandwidth. On the following pages, we will go into more detail about the product's features.  The release of the ADA series marks the end of the Ampere lineup, as NVIDIA phases out its predecessor in favor of a new generation of graphics cards that offer superior performance at similar price points. In comparison to the previous flagship model, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 10240 stream/Shader processors, the new GeForce RTX 4070 Ti boasts 7680 shading cores and a significant increase in speed.

Despite its size, GALAX has managed to create a stylish design, with a weight of 1.5 kg and a 3.5-slot design that is necessary due to the high maximum TDP of up to ~300 watts when the power limiter is open. The cooling system is complex and requires a lot of materials to keep the graphics card running efficiently.

The 12VHPWR connector has faced criticism recently due to isolated cases of overheating and melting caused by cable bending too close to the connector during user installation or potentially poor quality control. However, we find it difficult to replicate and overheat these connectors. Although the GeForce RTX 4000 series adheres to PCIe Gen 5 specifications, it utilizes a PCIe Gen 4.0 x16 host interface. With 12GB of GDDR6X memory operating at an effective data rate of 21 Gbps and a 192-bit wide memory bus, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti offers a substantial amount of volume and bandwidth combined.
