GIGABYTE - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Gaming OC 16GB GDDR6X PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card - Black

Been using this card now for few a weeks for 1440p gaming paired with a 13600k. Pretty satisfied with it's performance for games such as Cyberpunk (dlss quality, Ray tracing Maxed, Frame gen, and path tracing, got me over 100 FPS). The 16 GB memory is crucial for 1440p games such as this to avoid stuttering during heavy gameplay. Made my 3rd replay of the game transformative. Also excellent performance in other AAA games (God of war, spiderman series souls games). Card also performs well with competitive shooters (CS GO2). Gigabyte software is decent. Not as clunky as others imo. Fan noise is minimum. PRICING: Of course, I wish it was cheaper for this level of performance but honestly, if $100 to $200 dollars is a make it or break it amount for you, may I suggest that the timing is not right for you to spend this much money on for gaming just yet. Maybe temporarily give up some miscellaneous expenses (coffee, takeout, streaming services) for a period of time and you will make the difference back. But I understand, everybody's circumstances are different. Based on some reports from some commonly known tech sites, Tom's Hardware or Videocardz, the material to build this technology will keep on increasing in price and maybe the labor as well. The rumored 5000 series is reported to be a monster in the future, but at that point, how much will these cards go for? AMD seems to be taking a break from the "higher end" cards in the near future before working on next-gen. I am satisfied with my purchase, and am relieved that I do not have to worry about my gaming experience in the next few years. But this 12vhpwr adapter is an extra hassle and just doesn't look as good. I am waiting at least a month or two before I order CableMods 12vhpwr cable extensions for this line of cards. Just waiting if there will be any issues that will creep up. If the 4070ti Super lasts me at least 4 years of high fps performance across multiple games, to me that is worth my investment.

I got this on sale for about $20 less than the listed price, but even at $850 its worth it. I use the card for gaming and various creative tasks including 3D rendering and video editing and processing. It works well for all the tasks I've thrown at it so far. Most of the games I play are a little older (Fallout 4, Star Wars Battlefront II, PvZ Garden Warfare 2, etc.). They all run well at ultra settings at 4k, getting frame rates > 100, with many getting more than 200 fps. The 16 GB of memory really helps for more demanding games and 3d rendering. Temps are very good as well, though I do have a large case with good airflow. It fits well in my Lian Li Lancool 205 Mesh case, with plenty of room to spare. The include support bracket prevents sag and gives the system a clean look. The RGB lighting is OK, but since I did not side mount it I don't see the fan lights. All in all, a good balance between price and performance for low to mid high-end gaming.

- Really good value for 1440p and 4k gaming - 16gb vram is plenty for my set up - I love the led rings in the fans of the gpu especially with it vertically mounted in my case - Getting ~65-85fps on max 4k settings in new games like Horizon Forbidden West
