ASUS TUF-RTX4070TIS-O16G-OG-GAMING

The ASUS TUF RTX 4070 Ti SUPER posts a 31,550 PassMark score, good for the 86th percentile in raster performance, and its ray tracing chops are even better at the 91st percentile. The 16GB of GDDR6X is a real asset for 4K gaming. But user sentiment sits at just the 28th percentile and affordability at the 15th, so you're paying a lot for a card that owners have mixed feelings about.

Let's talk numbers. The 31,550 PassMark G3D score puts this card in the 86th percentile for raster performance, which means it outpunches the vast majority of GPUs in our database. Ray tracing is even better at the 91st percentile, so if you're into Cyberpunk with all the pretty lights on, this thing delivers. The 8,448 CUDA cores clocked at 2,640MHz boost (2,670MHz in OC mode) chew through 44.1 FP32 TFLOPS, and the 264 Tensor cores make DLSS 3 frame generation actually useful rather than a gimmick.

The 16GB of GDDR6X is a real selling point here. At the 79th percentile for VRAM capacity, it's not class-leading, but it's comfortably ahead of the 12GB cards that are starting to choke on newer titles. The 672 GB/s of bandwidth keeps those 4K textures flowing without hitching. One thing to note: the AI and compute scores sit at 77th percentile, which is solid but not spectacular. If you're doing heavy LLM work or rendering, this card will get the job done, but it's not the tool we'd pick for that specific job.

Stacked against the MSI Ventus RTX 5070 Ti, this ASUS card actually holds its own in raw raster performance, but the newer architecture gives the 5070 Ti an edge in efficiency and features. The Gigabyte AERO RTX 5080 is in a different league entirely, with more VRAM bandwidth and better AI performance, though it costs significantly more. The ZOTAC APOCALYPSE 5080 and PNY ARGB OC 5080 both outclass this card in compute and AI workloads, but again, you're paying for that privilege. The Sapphire NITRO+ is an AMD option that trades blows on raster but falls behind on ray tracing. For pure gaming at 1440p, this ASUS card is still competitive. For anything else, the newer cards pull ahead.

Here's where things get uncomfortable. The affordability ranking is a dismal 15th percentile, and the price tags confirm it. You're looking at $1,300 USD in the States, and the European listings are even more painful at EUR 3,147 to 3,317. That's a lot of money for a card that's now competing against newer RTX 5070 Ti options. The performance is there, don't get me wrong, but you're paying a premium for the TUF branding and the robust cooler. If you can find this card at a discount, the value equation shifts dramatically. At full retail, it's a tough sell.

The ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 4070 Ti SUPER OG OC Edition posts a PassMark G3D score of 31,550, which lands it in the 86th percentile for raster performance in our database. That's a serious number for a card that's now a generation old, and it translates to smooth 1440p gaming at high refresh rates plus a genuinely playable 4K experience in most titles. The 16GB of GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus gives you 672 GB/s of memory bandwidth, which matters more than ever as games get hungrier for VRAM.

But here's the rub: user sentiment sits at just the 28th percentile, and the affordability ranking is a rough 15th percentile. Owners love the performance and the build quality, but the price tag and some practical annoyances keep this card from being an easy recommendation. It's a great GPU wrapped in a frustrating purchasing decision.

If you're building a small form factor PC, skip this card. At 326mm long and 3.2 slots thick, it simply won't fit in most ITX or compact mid-tower cases. Also skip it if you're on a budget, the 15th percentile affordability ranking means you're paying a premium for the TUF branding. And if you need more than two display outputs, look elsewhere, the connectivity options are limited at the 43rd percentile with just one HDMI and one DisplayPort.

The ASUS TUF RTX 4070 Ti SUPER OG OC Edition is a genuinely fast graphics card with a 31,550 PassMark score and ray tracing performance that's still near the top of the charts. The 16GB of VRAM gives it legs that 12GB cards simply don't have. But the user sentiment at the 28th percentile tells a story of frustration, and the 15th percentile affordability ranking means you're paying a premium for last-gen silicon. If you find it at a meaningful discount, it's a solid buy. At full price, you're better off looking at newer options.
