ASUS GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super TUF

[W1zzard]

While the $800 ASUS RTX 4070 Ti Super TUF doesn't include a factory overclock, it features a highly capable all-metal cooler—ranking as the most effective among all the cards tested today. Additionally, the dual BIOS provides a quiet mode, transforming the card into a whisper-quiet gaming machine.

Great review.

"16 GB VRAM rarely makes a difference"

Like I said

I wonder how the inevitable 4080 discount will affect the 4070ti super (discount due to it being an outgoing gpu)

There will barely be a discount. They stopped making 4080 when they started making 4080 SUPER. They will overlap and 4080 will go EoL.

this has to be the most embarrassing refresh ever

Nah people just expected too much from a refresh.

People got what they asked for here, higher bus and more vRAM but sadly don't really make a difference. Maybe in some years

Sweet, it's performing exactly as expected at the price expected.

It's the best of the three 40-series supers because it adds VRAM and gets you 92% of a 4080 for 50-67% of the price. I still don't think that's good value, but it's a huge improvement that will affect other products on the market too, so that's a partial win even if you're not interested in spending $800 on a GPU that Nvidia has a track-record of abandoning in a single generation which is under a year away.

I forgot how spectacularly awful the 4070Ti was for the money. It was such a godawful bad idea that I'd basically forgotten it existed until this round of 40-series Supers hit the news cycle. Perhaps the 7900 series will get further price cuts soon. A 4070 Ti Super at $800 is worryingly close to AMD's $1000 XTX in anything with even a hint of raytracing, and you're probably gaming at 4K with this kind of budget so the difference between FSR and DLSS 3.0 FG is pretty significant still.

Great review. This would be the card I would get if I was getting a 4070 ti Super. Great cooler and temperature.

Great review, again
Priceing in EU looking to be around 890-1000Euro here, so quite hefty bump from the 800US retail.
Guess we will wait and see if they drop.

~900 EUR was always the starting price case for the 4070 Ti, and 1.2k for 4080 here in Latvia. So it is looking "normal".

The Ti Super is super disappointing.

 

[AnotherReader]

Thanks for the customary great review! Extrapolating from the difference between this and the regular 4080, the 4080 Super should be easily 20% faster than the 4070 Ti Super which would tempt some to choose the 4080 Super over its cheaper, but slower sibling. This is a welcome reversal from the situation before the Super release when the gap between the 4070 Ti and the 4080 wasn't large enough to justify the far larger price difference.

They’ve got a really tight belt on those PL increases, disappointing tbh.

That's to be expected. "OC the lower tier SKU to match the higher tier SKU" times are long gone.

@W1zzard it would've been much more convenient if you included the "Performance comparison VS the original 4070 Ti" chart. Other than that, great review like always.

Meh I forgot .. let me add

 

[rv8000]

That's to be expected. "OC the lower tier SKU to match the higher tier SKU" times are long gone.

I mean 0% (no adjustment) on the Zotac model is a new level of scum.

Considering theres no way the 4070ti s is going to touch a 4080s (fully expecting 90% of cards to retail for $1200) not sure what they have to worry about in cannibilizing their own lineup.

Cheapest models have been like that for a very long time now. Want more OC headroom, pay more. I hate this thing about the market none less than you do but there is no way back unfortunately.

 

[Chaitanya]

So all in all another GPU release that can be skipped and unlike Radeon's stock will be allowed rot on shelf but there wont be any discounts.

Not even remotely true unless you’re talking about Nvidia this gen.

That's surprising, the vast majority of cards seem to be at around 850 or so with the cheaper ones coming in at around 820. 890 and up is quite the significant difference, you should consider ordering internationally (if interested of course).
Edit: I just realised you specifically meant the TUF model, that one's 870 so the difference is somewhat minor then. Oops.

 

[Why_Me]

I was expecting more from this card =/

 

[happy medium]

I think your wrong about the cache size ,it does have 64mb not 48.
This card is underperforming ,something else is holding it back.
That's what other sites are reporting

Great review.

"16 GB VRAM rarely makes a difference"

Like I said

Relative performance
RT OFF 6%, 7%, 10%
RT ON 5%, 7%, 27%
It's makes difference! For gpu costing 800, MUST by future proof for 5year

People that can afford a 800$ gpu upgrade more than every 5 years.
Every 4 at the very most, that's 2 generations.
