RTX 3070 vs 3070 Ti

Posted by roru-@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 17 comments

The cards in question are:
Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Gaming OC 8GB
ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 OC Edition 8GB

Both cost €250. I know the Ti has about 10-15% better performance, but I was wondering if it was worth sacrificing it for the TUF series better build quality, temperatures and less noise.

Ti won't perform 15% better, more like , 5-7%. It's the same GPU, just overclocked. I would rather undervolt 3070 than overclock

because features wise alone he'd have far better experience and performance over getting a 6 years old card, even if a 3070ti could have a raw performance of 10% or whatever irrelevant number higher.

I think other than multi frame gen, the 3070ti has access to DLSS4 as will

So I'm not really sure what you're on about

On the contrary, the 3070ti does actually have full support for physx and not just the flimsy software patch they did for 50 series that only officially supports around 10 games.

32 bit physx is such a mute point, that It feels stupid to even address it, it's such a small amount of games from so long ago, that if it is your deciding factor whether to get a newer and better hardware over one that's more than half a decade old, then you do you, but it is objectively stupid.

DLSS support, albeit available on lower tier cards, newer ones obviously handle it better due to newer tensor cores, and there's also forward compatability.

We are talking about products that are within 20 euro dollars of each other.

Faster for cheaper?

I still know what choice l would make.

Ignoring the software side of things and how far it has gotten l, which is also the biggest difference in pretty much any debate/comparison nowadays is incredibly disingenuous and you do all the people that might not know better a very bad service.

Or maybe I just don't value it as highly?

just get the better card. TUF is Asus budget line anyway, which is not much different compared to the Gigabyte Gaming OC midrange line.

[-]

ADo_9000@reddit

No, just get the TI

I could argue if it was top end ASUS like Strix (because they age better than entry models) but TUF and Gigabyte is not that different. Definitely go with Ti.
