Zotac Gaming Geforce Rtx 2070 Super Twin Fan
You’ll find dual DisplayPort 1.4 connections, an HDMI 2.0b port, DVI-D, and a VirtualLink USB-C connection for VR headsets on the I/O plate. You won’t find an SLI/NVLink connector on the card, though—the RTX 2070 isn’t intended for use in multi-card systems. But unlike with the RTX 2080, Nvidia isn’t asking you to invest solely in as-yet-unfulfilled promises for the future. The GeForce RTX 2070 delivers an appreciable bump over the GTX 1080’s performance in today’s games, too. Nvidia’s RTX 2070 Founders Edition is a smaller, lighter card than its RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti equivalents, but the Gaming-Z variant we were sent for review is the absolute opposite. It’s an absolute monster, with a custom PCB, gun metal backplate, RGB lighting and seventh-gen ‘Frozr’ cooling design.
It has an impressive 1860Mhz clock speed and was very high on our list of performance and FPS benchmark tests. The areas that let this card down were unfortunately build quality and its cooling system, which under pressure was fairly loud and quite warm. The positives of this card however are a great slim design which will fit into almost any case, fantastic versatility in terms of OC’ing and compatibility, and finally it’s middle of the road price tag. Overall a very good card but for an extra 40-50$ you could push the boat out and get one of the top ranked models. If you’ve read our Best RTX 2060 article then you;ve probably noticed that Gigabyte and Asus Rog have switched positions in this article.
It’s not the kind of improvement someone would expect after 2.5 years, but it’s an improvement. Without content using its raytracing capabilities, it’s impossible to give a complete conclusion. UserBenchmark will test your PC and compare the results to other users with the same components. You can quickly size up your PC, identify hardware problems and explore the best upgrades. Admittedly, this complication probably stems from the fact that I’ve only had a chance to look at one of the fastest and most expensive gtx 1090 cards you can get right now, which is Zotac’s GeForce RTX 2070 AMP Extreme edition. Whereas the cheapest RTX 2070s will set you back around £460 / $500, Zotac’s AMP Extreme model costs closer to £600 / $640, which is just £90 / $90 shy of today’s cheapest RTX 2080.
If we may speculate a little, seeing Nvidia discontinue the entire high-end RTX lineup so quickly tells us that Nvidia is planning on launching the new high-end cards all in close succession. Reports around the web have the launch of the first RTX 3000 series cards pinned in September, with Nvidia completing the lineup in October. According to a source at MyDrivers.com , Nvidia is discontinuing the RTX 2070 Super graphics card, having shipped the last batch of chips to its board partners. Starting now, it will not be manufacturing any more GPUs for this card, and the last remaining inventory will be sold.
Product information may vary slightly, depending on your country or region. I’m hoping that third-party RX 5700 XT and 5700 cards will deal with the noise and heat situation a lot better than AMD’s reference blower, as they usually come with multiple fans. I’d recommend waiting on those if you’re impressed by the performance gains but not by the heat and noise produced or if you’re interested in overclocking these cards. I was most surprised with the Super performance, bringing it very close to what the standard RTX 2080 can offer. If you’re looking at spending $699 on the new RTX 2080 Super, then I would definitely look at the 2070 Super, which has most of the performance of an RTX 2080 for $200 less.
The 7th generation of the famous MSI TWIN FROZR Thermal Design brings the most advanced technology for ultimate cooling performance. It features the new TORX FAN 3.0 combined with groundbreaking aerodynamic feats. This means stable performance and a silent experience are guaranteed thanks to low temperatures. GeForce RTX™ gaming GPUs come loaded with next-generation GDDR6 memory, support for DirectX 12 features, and more. While the RTX 2060 Super proved to be a more powerful card and ultimately a worthy step up over the RTX 2060 for the cash, the RTX 2070 Super is aiming to displace the current RTX 2070 entirely as they sit at the same price tag of around $499.
