NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti Final Specifications Seemingly Confirmed

[Raffles]

My oldest kid is still using my old 3070Ti, for 1080p its not a bad card. It gets way more hate then it deserves imo.

Edit:

I am about to drag my 980 Classified out of retirement to use on my youngest's soon to be built first rig..

Should be ok for Roblox

It always surprises me when people describe solid cards like a 3070 as 1080p cards. Do you and your kids only play raytraced games or play at 1080p240?

I have a 3070, and it can run Forza Horizon 4 at 4k120 high settings. I know FH4 isn't a new cutting edge game, but it is still a modern game, a huge open world, with realistic visuals and a PBR workflow etc.

And at the time the 4070 was released at least, TechPowerUp's own benchmark chart had the 3070/3070ti averaging around 4k60 for all the games tested. Very good for a 1080p card, performing 4x better than expected

i agree!

I've got x2 1440p machines, one running a 3080 and the other 2080 TI. With VRAM limitations set aside the 3070 is basically on par with the 2080 TI, easily manages 1440p all day long. I wouldn't fancy carrying the 8GB VRAM limit over to 4K though unless lesser demanding titles or lower quality graphics are acceptable. If I ain't getting 90fps+ i ain't touching it.

I'm glad someone agrees at least!

My position on framerate is an interesting one (or perhaps quite common, not sure). I find 30fps basically unplayable, a real eyesore and juddery, not even taking into account worse input lag.

But for me 60fps is the sweet spot. It looks perfectly smooth to my eyes, and feels snappy. Can I tell the difference between 90fps and 60fps, absolutely, and I can just about tell the difference between 90 and 120fps. The thing is, for me it's a law of diminishing returns above 60fps. Doesn't quite seem worth it. I can see the argument for less input lag though, especially for competitive shooters and the like.

General use is another matter though. Scrolling websites or code at 60hz feels like 30fps in a game, so 120hz+ for general use is a must

But yeah, the 3070 is still great for 1440p, and from my own experience can hit 90fps+ in most titles especially if you're prepared to optimise settings a bit.

And the 2080ti is still a beast really, considering it came out in 2018. The very good memory bandwidth and 11gb VRAM definitely helped future proof it.
