GeForce RTX 3070 Ti founder edition review




It definitely is more affordable compared to what was released last week, but not as fast as lightning, meet the new GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, as in the founder edition from NVIDIA. It's a graphics card series that will sit in between 3070 and 3080 performance levels, a product that is on the heels of the Radeon RX 6800 and 6800 XT.

serously,at this point,hold on.
this generation still requires you to make tradeoffs - geforce with vram,radeon with features.
why desperately look for cards that will be limited one way or the other.
if they made a 3070 with 16G then sure,but don't overpay for a card that is gonna come short one way or another.
imo 3080 at msrp is the closest to being a really good buy this generation.and look how much they cost.
no way.
That's pretty wild how many more watts this card has to pull to get that 10% on average FPS improvement. Went from 208 watts for a stock 3070 to 308 watts for this 3070 Ti. Almost 50% more power for 10% performance. I was waiting for the 3070 Ti but I think the plain 3070 is going to be my 1440p card. Back on the hunt.

I think this and FE review shows once again ( if we assume availability and retail pricing was "normal") what good value the 3080 is. This 3070ti is cheaper but I think most people who are going to be able to afford the 3070ti would have saved a bit more more for the 3080 considering the extra performance etc.
Also, people who could not afford the 3080 but could the 3070 probably would not want to push to the 3070ti as percentage wise it is a big jump for the performance on offer. Normally I think the ti series from nVidia are pretty desirable, but now I think their 3080 and 3070 are better bang for buck.
Of course this is all theoretical with the current situation, but if things return to normal I would probably be looking at the 3070.

Huge disappointment. Only 2 SM more and 5% faster than 3070. Yet 20% more expensive. Price is right between 3070 and 3080, but performance is nearly same as 3070. So basically once again Nvidia bumped prices up.
It should have 56 or 58 SM, not 48 SM.

Cant argue. That may end up being the case even know I have the money to buy today. My poor 1070 is getting old since I bought I release week. I may need to pull the cooler clean and redo thermal paste. I usually never have to do that for a GPU. This is the longest I have held onto a GPU.
