ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 4070 SUPER Graphics Card Review

Yesterday, we showed you some exciting new graphics cards from Nvidia, but one thing they all had in common was that they were all MSRP graphics cards, meaning they all cost the same as the Nvidia Founders Edition. However, today it’s all about non-MSRP cards, and while they may cost a little bit more, they’re packing some more premium features and hopefully more performance that should help them stand out from the crowd. Such as this new one from ASUS which comes as part of their premium-grade TUF gaming series. That means more durable components and an aesthetic that matches up with the plethora of other TUF Gaming Alliance products that have been released over the years.

As we would expect from a TUF product, you get their more premium Axial-tech fans, which can deliver more airflow and lower noise, there are 20K military-grade capacitors which are rated for up to 105c, an a boost clock of 2475 MHz in default mode and 2505 MHz in OC mode. Most of all though, I’m expecting the more robust power delivery hardware and the larger cooler to be what makes this card perform at its best, so let’s dive in for a closer look at what’s on offer!
