Will go from a whisper to full bore when under a heavy load. Default fan curves are extremely aggressive. Annoying to find a regular 3070 instead of a Ti, which is not really worth the extra investment in my opinion, but you take what you can reasonably get right now Had to be done as a bundle (just a PSU for the one I got) No more launching on the HDMI device by default, then jutting over to the DP device once user settings were loadedĬons: - Costs are of course quite absurd for all GPUs right now Handles multi-monitor support better than older cards. Keeps cool, at least on the normal setting Has physical on-card switch for OC mode if you want that little boost at the cost of power draw and noise In testing, none of these hit performance at all if toggled on and off Seems to shrug off certain effects, such as glare, shadow softening and tessellation. Frame drops are within a far more marginal range when under heavy load Excellent performance at 1440 at and around my setups optimal 144hz The imaginary meme currency crash can't come soon enough. Thank you, Newegg, and I hope you can find a good GPU in this sad market we're in. I got myself a little GPU support pole and cut it down to the exact size for my case (Corsair 450D) because I didn't want this GPU ruining my PCI slot over time. Make sure to measure your case, if you are lucky enough to get one. It's 2.75 slots thick and nearly a foot long. This is by far the biggest card I've owned. I tried uploading a quick video of some of the lighting settings via Newegg, but the uploader keeps failing. The card's fans barely need to turn on with Fallout 4, and I haven't seen the temps go above 54° C.Īnd if you're the type of person who is triggered by RGB lights, you can disable them entirely with EVGA's PrecisionX software, the same software used for overclocking the card. Fallout 4 and Valheim, and at 2560x1080, both run on max settings with a constant 120+ FPS. Upgrading from a 6-year old GTX 960, the performance is night and day. I was fortunate enough to win the Newegg Shuffle and got the card I was dreaming of. Obviously this had more of an impact in forest environments in the game. The only setting I knocked down was tree tessellation because it bumped my GPU load up to ~98% and it doesn't really affect much beyond the details of tree trunks. Cool and quiet, must have gotten a good one. GPU load varies between about 70-85% depending on the environment, temps haven't gone up past 66☌ so far. Overall Review: Update : Been playing Red Dead Redemption 2 with everything on max settings, getting a constant 60+ FPS on 2560x1080 (21:9) ultrawide, paired with a Ryzen 3800X 8-core processor. This card will suit me well for years to come and I am finally happy to be enjoying a current generation GPU. If you want an astounding 1440p gaming experience and the ability to also dabble in some light 4k gaming then this product is for you. However, I would recommend this particular card to others because of EVGA's factory overclock, build quality, and visual appeal. This puts it closer to the RTX 3070 in terms of performance. The RTX 3070Ti is essentially a beefed up RTX 3070 rather than a gimped RTX 3080. Would I recommend this to others? The RTX 3070Ti is one of the least impressive Ti cards Nvidia has released over the years. Gaming at 1440p 144hz MAX settings in several intensive games the EVGA RTX 3070Ti FTW3 does not disappoint and I was thoroughly impressed with it's performance. After the card clicked into my PCI-E slot it was eerily quiet, time seemed to slow, and I basked in the glory that my build had finally acquired the final piece of the puzzle. Handling the GPU before installation you really get a sense that great care was taken when manufacturing and assembling. I have only ever owned MSI GPUs so as my first EVGA product the build quality is outstanding. First impressions, the card absolutely dwarfs my GTX 1070Ti in comparison. Upon arrival I felt a huge weight had finally been lifted off of my shoulders. The RTX 3070Ti wasn't my first choice for a new GPU but I couldn't pass up the opportunity for an upgrade and something that has eaten away at my mind while also taking up a great deal of my free time to find. Overall Review: Through Newegg shuffle I managed to successfully acquire what 99% of other people are STILL struggling to get their hands on, an RTX 3xxx series Ampere GPU. GPU shortage makes this card difficult to find Makes any build look aggressive yet elegantĬons: -Absolutely massive (a con for those with smaller cases) Fantastic quality and packaging from EVGA iCX3 technology keeps the GPU extremely cool Two available 8-pin or 6+2-pin PCIe power dongles.Īdditional Information Date First Available PCI Express, PCI Express 2.0, PCI Express 3.0, or PCI Express 4.0 compliant motherboard with one graphics slot.
