Awesome card for the price

Many 3070 cards from ASUS and MSI are ridiculously over MSRP, and this card from PNY stays much closer to the MSRP with a nice design. Whether it's hornizontally or vertically mounted, it looks great. Note that there will not be any RGB visible if it is horizontally mounted, and looks much better with a vertical mount. It felt surprisingly light at first (I couldn't tell if that was a good or bad thing), but it's great since there is minimal GPU sag since it's not very heavy as copmpared to its size. The backplate does feel like cheap plastic, but it has a nice simple design and after all, it's nice to even have a backplate. Also, the power connection is near the middle of the card which I found to be a pretty odd placement, but makes sense since this card is so big. It should fit in most cases, as I have a smaller ATX case and it fits by around an inch. If you are looking for a solid 3070, PNY is a smaller name in the market but definitely produces good cards, so don't stray away from this because of the name. PNY software is a little clunky but works and gets the job done. If you can get hold of this card for this price, I 101% recommend it.

Pny always have kept their prices down and the performance of their cards have never been a issue. This card had decent rgb and actually great cooling when I used it. It maintained a pretty high overclock for a 3070 going well above 2000 mhz but never really heated up. If you can find this one its actually great value for what they charge easily beating the founders edition.

I lucked out one morning and checked the availability of these cards on the BestBuy website and landed one. These are big cards, make sure your case and power supply can handle it. Installation was easier and it works great. This card is very quiet, the fans only kick in when needed.

Tried to buy a 3080 but they were all sold out and this happened to be in stock at the time. Overall card was good, temps were decent during gameplay, the RGB was neat but it is only on the bottom of the card but also there aren't many 3070's with RGB at this price point so you can't really complain. Performance just wasn't what I was hoping for but if you're upgrading from a 10 or a lower tier 20 series then a 3070 will make a difference. Going to spend a little extra and continue searching for a 3080.

Amazing performance that trades blows with the 2080 Ti in most games I've tested. The RGB is also very well done and not cheesy looking

Awesome Card, a lot bigger than I expected. If you happen to get a 30 series card make sure it can fit in your case. The two 8 Pin connection is kind of annoying, had to dig through my old computer boxes to find the extra hook up. Great value card!!!

Good card for the price given the current situation. I think the card looks pretty good and is in line with the other available cards. Only reason why this isn't a 5 star is that the fans are a little bit louder than other cards in this price range and being a 3 slot card is somewhat unnecessary especially when you consider cards like the FE and the Twin Edge are able to achieve similar thermals/sound with something significantly smaller.

Temps are good, runs very well for a not "well known" company, the rgb is only on the bottom so i recommend vertically mount it if possible.

Not many have this particular card but let me tell you, in the age of scarcity this is a nice one to use, not the best cooling but you aren't overclocking this anyway. Run as is and enjoy.
