INNO3D RTX 4070 Ti Super Twin X2 Graphics Card Review

A Closer Look
The INNO3D 4070 Ti Super Twin X2 looks pretty similar to the non-Ti version, with that gorgeous two-tone shroud design that gives it a very modern industrial look. There’s no trick RGB or flashing fans or anything, it’s just grey and black, so it should blend in with virtually any PC build nicely enough.
It features a pair of high-performance 90mm fans, which feature an axial design that joins the ends of each fin together, helping further push air down through the heatsink rather than letting it blow out from the edges.
Down the side of the GPU, you can see quite a bit of the heatsink, as the GPU will exhaust heat out of the side. It’s a surprisingly slim card though, with a 2-slot design it should have excellent compatibility in space-critical builds.
The cards, much like all the other SUPER cards, use the latest 12VHPWR connector, so you only need a single cable for power, assuming you have a compatible power supply, or you can use the included adaptor to connect a few PCIe power connectors.
The back of the card has four display connections, with three DisplayPort and a single HDMI port, making it perfect for multi-display users.
On the back of the card, you’ll find a full metal backplate, which adds extra cooling for the back of the PCB, but also ensures the card stays rigid and doesn’t flex under its weight.
The backplate features a large section of ventilation adjacent to the thickest part of the heatsink, allowing the fan here to blow air right through the card, that means it can exhaust heat much more efficiently but should also improve the passive cooling capabilities of the card too.
Tearing down the PCB, you can see there’s a much more robust power delivery configuration here, with the Non-Ti cards having gaps in the row of capacitors and VRM chokes, but on this Super Ti card, it’s a full bank of hardware, which can deal with the greater power draw and core count of this card.
There are 8 x 2GB memory ICs here too, giving the card its 16GB of GDDR6X VRAM.
There’s also a small cut-away on the PCB, allowing more room for the larger fans, and ensuring nothing gets in the way of the airflow from that fan as it passes through the heatsink and out the backplate ventilation holes.
The heatsink itself has densely packed fins and is broken up into three sections that are connected by five thick heat pipes. INNO3D say that there is a total of 1310.2mm total length of heatpipes, and a total surface area of the heatsink of 375,606.9 mm2, not a specification we normally get, so I’ve no comparison to that, but it’s neat that they included this information.
There’s a large contact plate for the GPU and two wide strips to cover the VRM hardware too, with good-quality thermal material on all components to ensure they make good contact with the cooler.
