The NVidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super is an enthusiast-level graphics card primarily aimed at gamers and content creators. It is ideal for gaming at maximum settings in 1440p resolution on the latest titles. Additionally, it is perfect for creators who edit videos and capture large 3D scenes.
The card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, ensuring that all modern games will run on the GeForce RTX 4070 Super. Furthermore, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability ensures support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading, and more, in upcoming video games.
Comparison of the new Ada Lovelace architecture with the previous generation
The NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, which is at the heart of every GeForce RTX 40 Series graphics card, offers a huge generational leap in performance, efficiency, and capabilities. Built with TSMC's special 4N process and featuring up to 76 billion transistors (compared to 28 billion in the previous generation), Ada is the most advanced GPU architecture ever created. Ada is extremely efficient, with more than double the performance at the same power consumption compared to the previous generation Ampere architecture and features excellent overclocking capability as power supply increases.
Ada Lovelace Architecture
New streaming multiprocessors, up to 2 times more performance and power efficiency.
Fourth-generation Tensor cores, up to 4 times more performance with DLSS 3 compared to brute-force rendering.
Third-generation RT cores, up to 2 times more ray tracing performance.
Ray Tracing
The NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture fully unleashes the capabilities of ray tracing technology, which simulates the behavior of light in the real world.
With the unique power of the new GeForce RTX 40 series and the 3rd generation RT cores featuring the new hardware units "Opacity Micromap Engine" and "Micro-mesh Engine," you will experience unparalleled gaming experiences.
Nvidia DLSS 3
The performance multiplier, powered by AI
DLSS is a revolutionary breakthrough in AI graphics that massively boosts performance. With the help of the new 4th generation Tensor cores and the optical flow accelerator in the GeForce RTX 40 Series, DLSS 3 analyzes successive frames and motion data from the new optical flow accelerator 40 to create additional high-quality frames.
DLSS Super Resolution
Increases performance for all GeForce RTX cards, using AI to generate higher resolution frames from lower resolution input.
DLSS collects samples of multiple lower resolution images and uses motion data and feedback from previous frames to reconstruct native quality images.
Nvidia Reflex
Nvidia Reflex and GeForce RTX 40 Series cards provide the lowest latency and the best responsiveness for the ultimate competitive advantage.
Designed to optimize and measure system latency, Reflex offers faster target acquisition, quicker reaction times, and the best aiming precision for competitive games.
Alternative Rotation
Reduces turbulence from adjacent fans and increases air flow pressure.
Active 3D Fan
The active 3D fan provides semi-passive cooling and the fans remain off when the GPU is in a low-load or low-power game.
Unique Fan with Blades
The airflow is dispersed from the triangular edge of the fan and is smoothly guided through the curve of the 3D stripes on the fan surface.
Graphene Nanolubricant
The graphene nano lubricant can extend the lifespan of the bearing fan by 2.1 times, close to the lifespan of the double bearing, and is quieter.
Large Copper Plate & Heat Pipe
The large copper plate comes into direct contact with the GPU, combined with the composite heat pipes, which quickly transfer the heat of the GPU and VRAM to the heatsink.
Screen Cooling
The extended heatsink allows air to pass through, providing better heat dissipation.
RGB Fusion
With 16.7 million customizable color options and numerous lighting effects, you can choose any lighting effect or synchronize with other devices in the Gigabyte control center.
Dual BIOS
The default factory setting is OC mode, which provides users with the best performance. However, switching to silent mode will offer you a quieter experience.
Power Indicator
When any power supply anomaly occurs, the indicator will alert gamers with a flashing light.
The Gigabyte Control Center is a unified software for all supported Gigabyte products. It provides an intuitive interface that allows users to adjust clock speed, voltage, fan mode, and power target in real-time.

I decided to switch to Nvidia for the first time after 3 AMD cards, with the last one being the 5700XT (purchased in 2020). As an AMD owner for so many years, I have to say that I had no complaints regarding the hardware. After all, the value for money was what pushed me in that direction. However, the only complaint from day one was driver instability (not everywhere) in 1-2 games that I play a lot, and after many complaints from the community, absolutely nothing was done over the years.
I said enough, and since I had the budget for Nvidia, I decided to change companies. We see the 4070TIs priced sky-high in Europe while in America it hits a launch price of $800, and we think it’s a divine card, while it is a top mid-range GPU.
I’m not saying the card is bad. On the contrary. It fully meets my demands. Gaming at 1440p 100-144FPS in most GPU intensive games I play (ultra settings + ray tracing) + ML training tasks that I throw at it. It doesn’t struggle with any of that. I just mean that we shouldn’t look at such an expensive GPU and think it can handle everything, as the price doesn’t always reflect the specs 100%.
The only negative I have regarding the construction of the card is the power port and the silly 1x16 connector, which I don’t know who thought of that. There were incidents with the 4080s - 4090s catching fire there because the cable wasn’t fully seated inside. When I was inserting mine, I thought I would break the port on the PCB with the amount of force it needed to go in.
