NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card - Dark Platinum and Black

"Don't Give Up" I DID IT!!!! I beat the bots i know you can too! I've been hunting for one since launch since this card is a BEAST for price. I watched a lot of "fixitfixitfixit" YT alerts on my 2nd monitor all the time and watched the discord. DLSS is MAGIC in Cyberpunk 2077 i was getting before on my 1070ti i 40fps on LOW now everything is on ULTRA w/DLSS Quality hitting 100fps i'm in love. Good Luck to all who trying to get one. My watch has finally come to an end.

Gets great performance in really any game @ 1440p. If you're looking to game @ 4k reliably I'd probably go with something beefier. But anyways, the reference design is great and my card has kept very cool (even in the cramped ITX case I've got it jammed in to). All I can say is I wish it had a bit more VRAM. Running multiple displays + a VR headset nearly maxes it out. Also, don't give in to scalpers!!!! It allows them to keep doing what they do. Look up methods for tracking card drops & camp out on the BB app Tuesday mornings. Good luck.

I've had the card for almost 6 months now without issue. It plays all the newest games at the highest settings at 1440p. While it doesn't always max out my 144Hz G-sync monitor, it still stays well above 60fps. Ray Tracing looks amazing, and turning DLSS-Quality on will make the games run buttery smooth without affecting the visual quality in any noticeable way. The FE card itself is 2 slots high and not very long compared, so it should fit in almost any regular sized case. It's also probably one of the best cards for small cases as well. It has a very sleek look, but some people may not appreciate the 8-to-12 pin power dongle, which might be an eyesore to some. It took about a week between successfully ordering the card and it shipping, but that's to be expected for such an in-demand item. You won't find a 3070 for a better price anywhere else. This is literally the only place online that sells these cards at MSRP. AIB brands may have marginally better noise and thermals, but at the cost of several hundred dollars. (Forgive the dust in the picture. I cleaned it afterward.)

Took me more than 3 months and multiple tries to finally grab this at MSRP. Tips for actually getting one: - Join discord servers to find when BB drops happen - Get up early and get your computer + phone ready - Once discord server/Twitch stream starts pinging, mash that Add to Cart button! - Profit Now as for the card, I'm upgrading from GTX 1070 so the performance gain is huge. Finally getting >60 fps@1440p in Control!

It took a lot of time out of my weekdays every other week for a month and a half but I DID IT. This card is perfect for 1440p 144hz AND is at MSRP, which is a huge plus in these times with gpu shortages and such. The card is sleek and simple with the metal around the sides and built extremely rigid and is heavier than you'd think when you first pick it up. Performance on this thing is a beast. For 1440p gaming this is the sweet spot for price to performance especially if you're pc budget is under $2000. The temps can get a little higher than I'd like to see, i sit around 68-70C, though i also have my case fans set to quiet most of the time with the 4000d airflow. I do sometimes spike up to 74C (it's been more common recently with the temperatures getting hotter and our AC not working currently), which is above what I find to be the thermal throttle line of ~70C, but just upping the fan curve by about 5% (and a little more on a hotter day) usually brings it back down to the 68-70C range. I have an overclock of +133mHz on the core which so far has been stable for over a month. I have this paired with the 3700x (the 5000 series was difficult to come by when i bought it) and there is no bottlenecking at all. My frames are almost always 100+, except for places in ARK that have a lot of structures, but that game's also poorly optimized so that's too be expected. I play all games at epic/high settings which looks great and gives me plently of frames for it to be a very smooth experience. Good luck to everyone who's trying to get a gpu, it's difficult but it's possible with some dedication and luck. I would recommend to anyone to join a notification server on discord, they're so helpful and the reason I got a card.

It's big, and looks and feels incredibly premium. Undervolts like a boss. I replaced the thermal pads as they would reach 98 C. Dropped temps to staying below 80 C. Haven't seen GPU above 65 C. Fan isn't that quiet, but not that loud. Usually at 800 to 1100 RPM. Afterburner doesn't seem to currently change the rpm after the firmware update. Performance improvement with higher resolutions. Overkill at 2K, and great performance at 3440x1440. A big improvement over a 2080 on water. Bestbuy has been my only reliable source for electronics during these trying times I truly appreciate their friendly and safe staff.

I am very happy to have been able to purchase this card at MSRP. Thank you Best Buy and NVIDIA! I had been watching fixitfixitfixit on youtube, when they said Best Buy had a drop starting. I was able to log in and get in the order queue for several cards. After about 30 minutes It seemed to be ending and I thought I had missed out, but kept refreshing and found perhaps more cards had been released, and was able to click the add to cart button. I was shaking as I went through the checkout, hoping it would work! You bet I paid for next day shipping! The Founders Edition card is excellent - I love how simple it is. Would be nice if it had lighting, but it still looks great in my system. I eschewed the power dongle - do yourself a favor and order a 12-pin extension power cable! Don't give up hope, you'll get one eventually!

When I embarked on my first PC build this December, I had no idea the state of the PC market (Covid shortages, new tariffs, crypto demand, etc). Right now is arguably the worst time to build a PC. I consider myself to have been one of the fortunate to get a card at MSRP thanks to BestBuy - it was not impossible, and was persistence of checking the website multiple times a day. This 3070 Founders Edition was initially not my first pick, but after having received it, it is now my favorite 3070 due to being simple and beautiful. In my opinion, the only comsetic downside to the card is the lack of any illumination. This card feels premium and is really rigid. Despite the fact my case only allows for one screw to be used on the PCI slot, this card does not have any sag and is very securely mounted. Performance? Well, the benchmarks speak for themselves. Admittedly, I am still in the process of setting up my new PC and have not had much time with it, but I am excited to know that this GPU should withstand my needs for some time.
