MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SuprimX review - Introduction

MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SuprimX 12G review

MSI has submitted the powerful SuprimX variant of the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. It has lovely and silent cooling, looks excellent, and is factory modified to run quicker. Join us as we review the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12GB. Yeah no surprises here, that would be the product that was 4080 12GB that NVIDIA got cancelled en renamed into the 4070 series. The new graphics card provides greater performance at all fronts, more extensive raytracing features, and DLSS 3.0 thanks to upgraded Tensor cores. 

While we all had a reasonably dull year in terms of technology, 2022 is loaded with new releases. Among them were NVIDIA's ADA GPU architecture graphics cards for the consumer market. The company has unveiled its new GPU design for next-generation gaming PCs. In the short term, two or three variants of GPUs are expected in the first launch wave, each one will outperform the Ampere 3000 series somehow. NVIDIA's RTX 4000 GPUs will provide impressive performance, but next-gen graphics cards may have to contend with alternatives like AMD's rDNA3 and Intel's Arc Alchemist. Where GeForce RTX 4090 is Nvidia's flagship model in the new series, the GeForce RTX 4080 16GB took a step down. We're now in the first days of 2023 and NVIDIA released its 4070 Ti.  The AD104 GPU powers the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti's 7,680 shader cores, which can generate an impressive 40 FP32 Shader-TFLOPS for rendering rasterized graphics, 240 Fourth Generation Tensor Cores, which can generate 641 Tensor-TFLOPS (with Sparsity) for AI processing and DLSS, 60 Third Generation Ada RT Cores, which can generate 93 RT-TFLOPS for driving next-generation ray-tracing The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, like the rest of the GPUs in Nvidia's RTX 40 Series, features Ada technologies like Shader Execution Reordering (SER), the new RT core engines, and DLSS 3. The RTX 4070 Ti is the best graphics card for high-end gaming and content creation. Enjoy advanced RTX accelerations in the most popular creative software, premium NVIDIA Studio drivers designed for optimum stability, and a set of unique tools that tap into RTX's potential to facilitate AI-assisted creative workflows. First things first, NVIDIA is not launching a reference design (founder edition) ergo, only the board partners will release this card. The GeForce 4070  Ti thus. Initially, NVIDIA wanted to release two distinct GeForce RTX 4080 versions. A GeForce RTX 4080 12GB with GDDR6X RAM. Nvidia however first announced a 16GB model of the RTX 4080. Due to market reception and confusion, NVIDIA removed that 12GB version from its deck of cards (which is now the 4070 (Ti)). The reference boost frequency is 2.610 GHz. This card has a 192-bit memory bus, 12Gb at 21 Gbps and a relatively okay tgp (total graphics power) of 285W.

Today's review will examine NVIDIA's 4070 Ti, not a reference model, but the MSI SuprimX version, MSI's finest series. The company's Suprim X Series has been revised for the 4000 series with improved cooling, an elegant new appearance, and a higher TGP range. MSI's SUPRIM X series is as stunning as ever, and it is back. It employs the latest 12 GB of GDDR6X graphics RAM and a shader count of 7680. MSI equipped the card with a semi-passive layout, meaning that the three fans only start spinning and cooling when the GPU temperature rises. The card is now much more sturdy and includes a support to prevent it from tucking over inside that chassis of yours. There are two BIOS modes, one optimised for gaming and the other for absolute silence. The performance is identical to within 1% regardless of the BIOS settings, although there are small temperature and noise tradeoffs. This card's 2775 MHz clock speed (boost) is among the highest available. When we tweak it, we breach speeds of roughly 3.0 GHz. The memory can reach speeds of about 22~23 Gbps. The well-known TRI FROZR cooling system with three TORX 5.0 fans may be found in the SUPRIM X. Please utilise this graphics card with a power supply of at least 700-750 watts if you plan on using it alongside other high-end components. This newborn is bif. It has dimensions of 336 x 140 x 71mm and a weight of 2kg. If you prefer or need an additional bracket to support the card's heft, MSI also throws in a mouse mat at no cost. Plus, it will be a sight to behold. However, you are free to come to your own conclusion, so how about we get this review underway?
