Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti

If you're looking for a cheaper way to arm the best gaming PC with a Lovelace GPU, the RTX 4070 Ti is probably your best bet. It pains me to describe it as affordable, as it still costs more than I'm personally comfortable with. That said, it's...

The RTX 4070 Ti marks the third entry in the Ada Lovelace roundup, dropping the price of entry to an almost palatable $799. Raw performance is basically on par with the RTX 3090, but with half the memory and lower power consumption, while DLSS 3 hopes to make the performance picture a bit rosier.

For 1440p I see no convincing alternative to RTX 4070 Ti, unless you're willing to accept lower performance (RX 6800 non-XT, used GeForce 20). AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XT suddenly feels overpriced at $900, and I doubt that RTX 4080 can stay at $1200 for long—there's now a huge $400 gap between two NVIDIA offerings with no space left in-between for a new model, so the coming months will be interesting to see how GPU prices continue to develop.

The card has a faultlessly rounded shape, even though its width and length are at the absolute top of what any case, let alone mid-towers, can take. However, at 1.8 kilogrammes, it is somewhat heavy. At the very least, they included a straightforward cardholder. The ASUS graphics card is an excellent addition to the ROG Strix family of gear, and it is prepared to take on any holiday-themed gaming challenge you may throw at it. Pricing is unconfirmed at the time of writing this article, but as stated, we expect a premium of 200 USD.

Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is a ferociously capable graphics card for 1440p gaming, but Nvidia cut down the memory system in a way that reduces 4K performance and overpriced the GPU by hundreds of dollars. It offers stagnant value at best and atrocious value at worst depending on how you look at it. We can’t recommend the 4070 Ti unless Nvidia slashes the cost significantly.
