The default is a bit louder since the fans spin up to 1500 RPM, creating noise levels around 32 dBA with temperatures staying around 66 degrees Celsius. The ASUS RTX 4070 Ti TUF comes with two BIOS options. Although PNY’s higher memory clock overclock provides a higher boost in performance. We’ve seen a GPU clock OC closer to 3090 MHz with memory clocks of about 1470 MHz. The RTX 4070 Ti TUF does overclock well though. Specifications advertise boost clocks of 2760 MHz, while in-game clock speeds average around 2850 MHz, so nothing is out of the ordinary here. Performance And Overclocking Capabilities It weighs only about 1373g and is 305 mm long, so lighter and shorter than the alternatives. But, even with a tame design, it still looks to be made of high-quality materials. ![]() A standard triple-fan setup, a grayish/black metal backplate, and a shroud around the GPU of the same colors. Nothing too crazy going on with the design of the ASUS card. Not too expensive, but how does it fare against the cheaper PNY or Founders Edition options? Design ![]() The RTX 4070 Ti TUF has an $850 price tag, so a $50 price premium over the Founders Edition. Let’s see what the ASUS GeForce RTX 4070 Ti TUF has to offer! Pricing So, it’s both cool and quiet, which is probably why clock speeds boost so well.ĪSUS’s STRIX line usually comes with a huge price premium, severely affecting the value of the card, but the TUF lineup is the perfect balance between quality and price. In-game the GPU averages around 63 degrees Celsius and noise levels stay around 27.5 dBA. The PNY card keeps on giving even when it comes to cooling! The triple-fan design is more than enough to keep the RTX 4070 Ti cool and quiet. Overclocking is also impressive with the GPU clock going up to 3045 MHz and the memory clock up to 1490 MHZ. In TechPowerUp’s testing, the average gaming clock speed is around 2880MHz, almost 8% more than the advertised clock speed. However, when tested in-game, the average clock speeds are actually much higher, even higher than MSI’s Gaming X Trio. PNY’s RTX 4070 Ti XLR8 doesn’t have a remarkable factory overclock in its specifications. ![]() It’s also on the lighter side, about 1.57 kg, so you won’t have to worry about GPU sag too much with this card. Looking at the front there are three black fans surrounded by a mostly black shroud and transparent lines forming an X for RGB. Not bad.īut, what about its performance and quality? DesignĮven though this RTX 4070 Ti comes with a smaller price tag, its looks and quality are quite imposing. Its MSRP is $830, so just $30 above NVIDIA’s MSRP. Out of all custom RTX 4070 Tis, PNY’s is one of the cheaper ones. PNY’s GeForce RTX 4070 Ti OC XLR8, for example, is one of the better RTX 4070 Tis. People most often go for MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte, or EVGA for NVIDIA cards, but other companies such as PNY deliver just as good GPUs or maybe even better. The “Gaming BIOS” reduces the GPU temp to about 65 degrees, but the extra noise simply isn’t worth the tradeoff. And even though it’s very quiet, GPU temperature goes to around 68 degrees Celsius. The default (non-gaming) BIOS on the RTX 4070 Ti Gaming X Trio is the quieter option, which maintains the fans around 1244 RPM and produces only about 28 dBA. Memory clocks can also get up to 1500 MHz, making the MSI RTX 4070 Ti one of the best memory overlockers. With overclocking you can expect a 4-7% improvement in in-game FPS since the Gaming X Trio GPU Clock can get up to 3000 MHz. When tested in various games, clock speeds average around 2830 MHz, which is close to the advertised speeds. Out of the box with the faster BIOS, the RTX 4070 Ti Gaming X Trio has a 2760 MHz boost clock. Like most GPUs at this price point, it has a dual BIOS switch and a metal backplate. It’s a 1.6 kg GPU, 34 cm long with a black/silver shroud around the black fans, so nothing too bold in terms of its design, but the GPU will aesthetically fit in most PC builds. The design of the MSI Gaming X Trio has always been a hit. We’ve said it multiple times, but we’ll say it again. ![]() However, on Amazon, the GPU is often priced between $865 and $880, so a bit more expensive than expected. The RTX 4070 Ti has an $800 MSRP while the RTX GeForce 4070 Ti Gaming X Trio has an $840 MSRP. The Gaming X Trio proved to be a great cooler for the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080, so no doubt the cooler performs well on the RTX 4070 Ti too. ![]()
