That’s a nice looking gpu and seems to perform well with the games that you were playing.As always, a great review.Thank you for sharing your thoughts Mike and Kath 👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can’t believe that card is almost 4 years old! Thanks for the great update, Mike! 🎉

Nice one Mike! I was very lucky to get this card on launch date in the UK! Felt like I was maybe 1 of 10 people that got one! Was getting £1200 2080TI performance for £469 in 2020! This was the joint third fastest card money could buy back then. Crazy how times moved on! Feels like 3000 series is 1-2 years old max. Impressed by those 4K averages! I only used it at 4k so was surprised to see it do so well.

A close buddy of mine recently upgraded to a 4070 and gave me his 3070 for free, i upgraded my r5 3600 to a 5600x and man I've been having a blast in 1440p ever since 👍👍👍

[uglybob]

Since I found out you got one of these bad boys Ive been interested to see how it fares against the 3060ti. My 3060ti can still kick it at 1440p and even 4k in some games without any issue....and thats being paired with a AMD 3600 !!! the 30 series cards are certainly still relevant today even with "only" 8GB RAM. Think youve bagged yourself a bargain from the legend Mr Aitken, thanks for sharing your thoughts on this 🙂

Mike!The 3070 FE is well known to over clock with ease. Bumping the Memory speed to 8000mhz can give you a nice little boost on some games! Clock speed will also go up a bit without any changes to voltages. Used to do this on the other 3070FE I owned back in 2021 when I gave mining a very brief try! I’m sure this one would be the same sort of stability with those tweaks.

My 3070 still slaps. I run a mix of high and medium with dlss quality and easily hit a steady 60fps capped on a 4k tv. Its the perfect little card for a living room pc.

My last ever nVidia card will be my EVGA RTX 2060 12GB. I have a new in box Intel ARC A770 16GB LE that I paid $400 off Amazon awhile back. Now the only one they show costs $636.47 + $24.99 shipped from Japan. Great review Mike and Lady Kath. Be safe all. Cheers

It’s getting harder to recommend even these last generation mid tier GPU for newer UE5 titles and other new engines utilising baked in Ray Tracing like Avatar etc. For everything else game wise prior to this these gpus are still more than adequate.

I feel we’re at a transition point in the graphics industry and we’re going to need massive boosts to entry level gpus and up in the next generation or two of gpus by AMD and Nvidia, including minimum 12GB vram on entry level gpus to get new graphics engine games to play with 60+ fps and medium to high settings even at 1080 and 1440p

I'm actually quite surprised at how well this card performs at 4k. I play in 1440p with this card, and for the most part, it performs great. I mostly run at medium-high settings, as this definitely isn't a card for 4k ultra in most current/modern games. GPU temps are a little high for my liking in 4k, I did notice you are running at 75 degrees. Looks like it's running really well though, great video!

[lateralus]

Here in NZ the used market is flooded with 30 series cards now and prices are dropping every month. I'm thinking about finally upgrading to one now that the prices are reasonable. It has taken along time to see a price drop here. I refused to pay a crazy price during the shortage.

[westietech]

Had my 3070 trio x since launch. Great card and will be replaced by a 5070 next year. It will go on to live in my son’s PC and keep crushing 1080p for him.

[Wellibob]

Cheers Mike. Still a very decent card and nvidia once again show how thier ram tuning gets the most from it.

[Lennox]

Nvidia are so stingy with the VRAM on GPU's, If they had released this with maybe 12gb of VRAM it would be fine for years!

[Beanszo]

great vid, I wanted to get a 4k monitor but was worried about how my gigabyte 3070 would perform

[thedjoker]

I just bought one used for 215$. ASU’s TUF oc edition, I think that’s a banging deal

[Loppyu]

RTX 3070 is a great card for the most popular games played on steam.

[Arachnoid_of_the_underverse]

Great review as always Mike . Just picked up a used Rog Strix RTX 3070ti myself and its a helluva big boy Im going to need a acro support under it 😅

[mbison]

This card still kicks ass. 💪

I still run a lot of games, both new and old, in 4K High to Ultra.
