Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC 12GB Graphics Card - 12GB DDRX6 21Gbps, PCI-E 4.0, DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1a, NVIDIA DLSS 3, Ada Lovelace Arch, GV-N4070WF3OC-12GD

Not the most powerful next gen GPU by a long way. Not good value for money when bought, in fact no better performance per dollar than the 3070 I upgraded from, but I remain reasonably happy with it due to the extra VRAM since it gets me above that problematic 8GB mark everyone's been talking about (even though...look, Nvidia, stop being to stingy with the VRAM, this should be at least a 16GB GPU for 600 quid, COME ON!), and technologies such as DLSS has already, and will in future even moreso, allow this GPU to punch well above it's weight in frames per second when compared to anything that has gone before. I recommend a 4070 to anyone not able to afford better, who is on a 3000 series or less (or AMD equivalent), and IF they can get this card for a good price. That price is dictated by you, not me, so I won't tell you what that good price would be. I can tell you that for me this card ought to cost between 350-450, but Nvidia gonna Nvidia, and people like me continuing to buy their products because I felt backed into a corner because all of a sudden my 3070 wasn't even holding up at 1080 in some newer titles, almost as if Nvidia planned it to start to look bad right around the time of release of their next gen lineup. As far as my specific GPU goes, I've not had any problems with it. Quiet, easy to install, never failed, no problems. I even installed the wrong drivers by accident once. I simply used DDU to clean uninstall all the drivers then clean install the correct drivers and there were no problems. I've never had a problem with an Nvidia product ever. It's just their price gouging, ruthlessness towards their own partners and customers, and their dishonesty that winds me up.

Pretty good value when I bought it (Jan 2024) but ultimately paired with and AMD 7800X3D (5.0 GHz) this made an excellent gaming PC. Comfortably runs ArmA and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 with ease, with the *caveat* that I am only feeding a 1080x1920 monitor at 144Hz When I bought it you could buy better but this represented better value and gave me the performance improvement I want (you could also buy better value graphics cards but I thought it was worth paying the extra for a more capable graphics card). The unboxing experience also impressed this 60's cynic (ticked that box don't need to experience it again).

Got this to replace a new aging RTC2070 Super, that was a bit of a mistake because now my CPU's become the bottleneck of the system, so that'll be another £1000 to spend. Pro Tip: go to a system compatibility checker before firing your hard-earned into a single costly upgrade. Other than that - good improvement in frame rates on my favourite games, combined with a high-sync monitor it's a must-have system upgrade - has a good choice of ports - which for me is brilliant as I dual-monitor and I'm yet to see it struggle with anything I've thrown at it. TL:DR brilliant card, consider your overall system build before jumping in.

I recently upgraded my gaming rig with the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC 12GB Graphics Card, and I couldn't be more thrilled with its performance. The performance of the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC is simply outstanding. Powered by NVIDIA's latest architecture, this card delivers smooth, high-frame-rate gaming even at 4K resolution. Whether I'm playing graphically intense AAA titles or running demanding applications, the RTX 4070 handles everything with ease. One of the standout features of this graphics card is its WINDFORCE cooling system. The three fans and advanced heat dissipation technology keep the card cool even during long gaming sessions. I’ve noticed that the temperatures stay well within safe limits, and the card remains remarkably quiet. The fans are virtually silent when idling and only slightly audible under heavy load. Overall, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC 12GB Graphics Card has exceeded my expectations in every way. From its stellar performance and advanced cooling system to its impressive ray tracing and DLSS capabilities, this card is a powerhouse that elevates my gaming and computing experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their GPU to something truly remarkable.

There's no need for anything more than the 4070, used this on my first build and it handles anything, it's almost too good for my processor, highly recommend for high performance games. Clicks into place easily as is expected, cooling is great, only slight annoyance is the RGB only stays on while the fans spin, and I have found no resolution for this, since my graphics card is mounted with the fans facing the side glass of my case, it looks so much better with the rgb on, so it would be cool if this was available

RX4070s handles everything we throw at them in my son and mine gaming machines in ultra high, even the very demanding DCS. yes expensive, but you do this kind of purchase once every five years. Only negative, the Gigabyte Control Software for the RGB and fans sucks so badly as to be useless, use MSI Afterburner.

The RTX 4070 windforce OC was the only “high end” gpu I could afford. I paired it with the Ryzen 7 5800x3D and it’s honestly amazing, I benchmarked cyberpunk on the highest settings it could go (without path tracing) and as you can see I was averaging 100+ FPS with 138 as my max. It ran smoothly. I have no complaints but I really wish it wasn’t so overpriced. I can’t really hear the fans for it since my case fans are always on turbo which is sorta loud.

Graphics card was swiftly delivered and in good working order. All that came with it was the graphics card itself in the OEM packaging along with a useless getting started guide. It's nice and speedy and on par with performance I've seen online about the 4070. I personally find the card to be nice and quiet. In terms of relative size it was close to my XFX RX 580 if that helps give anyone reference.

Ho acquistato questa scheda all'incirca tre settimane fa, e in queste settimane di utilizzo intenso ho potuto osservare le prestazioni e le temperature che la GPU offre. Lato prestazioni niente da dire, tutti i giochi li setto al massimo e in 2k con una media di 100-140 fps, ovviamente ci sono delle volte che scende ma bisogna vedere sempre il gioco e tutto il lavoro grafico che c'è dietro per la scheda, ma il minimo che ho registrato è stato 80. Per quanto riguarda le temperature il massimo è stato 64 gradi e non sono mai andato oltre questa soglia con una media di 60 gradi. La scheda è veramente eccezionale, per prestazioni, temperature, e soprattutto dimensioni da vecchio possessore di una rtx 3070 che era davvero enorme, questo è molto piu' potente sia di norma e sia per il fattore del dlss 3, con delle dimensioni davvero ridotte circa la metà della rtx 3070.

Voici le texte corrigé : Avantages : Très silencieuse : je ne l'entends presque pas, en comparaison avec ma précédente carte RTX 2060. Consommation : sincèrement, c'est le point fort pour moi de cette carte. Je l'ai choisie pour améliorer ma configuration, achetée durant la pénurie (il y a 3 ans), et honnêtement, je n'ai pas eu besoin de changer d'alimentation. Une alimentation 550 W 80+ bronze (d'où l'importance d'avoir une alimentation certifiée) suffit pour ma configuration, qui comporte un processeur peu énergivore (i5-11400, 65 W). Cela offre une excellente combinaison de composants. En termes de performances, je suis personnellement très satisfait. Je fais tourner tous mes jeux en ultra à plus de 100 FPS facilement. C'est très fluide pour du 1440p (résolution pour laquelle j'ai opté suite à un changement d'écran), surtout après avoir remplacé une RTX 2060. Température : une agréable surprise du côté de la température. Sincèrement, la carte ne chauffe pas du tout. En moyenne, je tourne entre 55 et 60 degrés, en fonction de la chaleur de la pièce. C'est une belle amélioration par rapport à ma précédente carte, qui atteignait généralement les 75 à 80 degrés. Inconvénients : Les 12 Go de RAM : C'est un point que tout le monde souligne. Personnellement, cela me convient, car j'utilise cette configuration à la fois pour jouer et travailler. Je trouve cela largement suffisant. La carte est considérée comme non "futureproof" pour les jeux à venir, mais cela dépend également des optimisations de jeux vidéo actuelles, qui laissent à désirer. À voir avec le temps, mais je pense être tranquille pour les 4 prochaines années, jusqu'à l'arrivée de nouveaux jeux, etc. En considérant ce que propose AMD, je comprends le comparatif, mais je pense que les deux marques ne s'adressent pas au même public. NVIDIA reste, pour moi, indispensable pour les apports technologiques dans le domaine professionnel. Dans le cas contraire, AMD ! Le prix : Et oui, il faut être honnête, les prix des GPU, surtout chez NVIDIA, sont exorbitants. Cette carte est, selon moi, très intéressante à un prix de 500 € et non 664 €. Il faut être honnête, personnellement, j'ai revendu ma précédente carte graphique, donc la carte me revient simplement à 430 €. Pour moi, la mise à niveau était très avantageuse ! Conclusion : C'est une excellente carte si vous cherchez à améliorer une configuration comportant des cartes graphiques de 1re ou 2e génération. Dans le cas contraire, je ne pense pas que cela soit utile pour l'ensemble de la gamme 3000 ! Je la recommande !

Great Graphic card very quiet performance is great!

Upgrade d'une GTX 1080 vers cette RTX 4070. Le gain en qualité est indéniable. La carte est très efficace et la consommation est bonne. Possède un des meilleurs ration de consommation/performance. Ne surchauffe pas et silencieuse dans tous les usages que j'ai eu à affronter du jeux gourmands au montage graphique, montage vidéos et effets spéciaux avec la suite adobe (Photoshop, Ilustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects) Un très bon achat.

Parto da un paio di assunti: - considero solo nVidia e non AMD per pura personale predilezione, le reputo più performanti, con soluzione progettuali interessanti (come dlss 3.5) e con un supporto lato driver migliore di AMD. - è ormai arcinoto che il costo delle schede video è aumentato nelle ultime due generazioni (la rtx2070 che ho sostituito con questa 4070 mi è costata 4 anni fa quasi 100€ in meno), ma questo è il mercato attuale. Giusto o sbagliato che sia, se uno ha necessità di cambiare o acquistare una sk video nuova, i prezzi purtroppo sono quelli che oggi detta il mercato. - considero l'utilizzo di questo tipo di schede video esclusivamente per il gaming, non considero altri utilizzi (è l'uso che principalmente ne faccio e su cui posso esprimermi) Le RTX4070 sono secondo me, (pur considerando quando detto prima), le schede nVidia con il miglior rapporto qualità prezzo per una scheda volta ad avere ottime prestazioni per il fullHD o il 1440P, che possano garantire qualche anno di ottime prestazioni senza dover scendere a compromessi con le impostazioni grafiche. Al di là dei risultati nei benchmark, è nell'uso pratico che ho notato un miglioramento enorme rispetto alla RTX 2070 che avevo prima. Nei giochi che ho provato (ad es. The Witcher 3, Starfield, No man's Sky, World of Warcraft, Cyberpunk) in 1440p gli fps in media sono raddoppiati, con dettagli aumentati al massimo nei giochi in cui non lo erano (ed erano la maggior parte di quelli che ho provato). Tutto questo mantenendo un vecchio i7 9700k (a 4,9GHz) che utilizzavo con la 2070. Chiaramente ora il collo di bottiglia è la CPU (e le RAM), ma la differenza rispetto alla vecchia scheda video è già "abissale" in questo modo. Questa versione di Gigabyte prevede una soluzione di raffreddamento a tre ventole, che non hanno mai fatto salire la temperatura oltre i 60/65° e con un rumore molto contenuto; fino ai 40° le ventole non partono, temperatura che, insieme all'overclock ed ai colori dei led, può comunque essere modificato con il software Gigabyte Control Center (opinione personale, preferisco MSI Afterburner, lo trovo più completo, ed sostituito con quello il tool di Gigabyte). Quello che mi è piaciuto maggiormente di questa Gigabyte, è il fatto che il generoso dissipatore sia a contatto oltre che con il chip, anche con le RAM e i moduli VRM, cosa che non sempre capita (soprattutto per i moduli VRM), il che contribuisce a tenere sembra bassa la temperatura anche in condizioni di stress. In sostanza, al netto dell'aumento del prezzo di questa ultime generazione di schede video, la consiglierei, poi, chiaramente, dipende dal budget che uno decide di investire. (Io l'ho acquistata durante i prime day ed ho risparmiato un centinaio di euro rispetto al prezzo originale)
