About this deal

Seeing the results, the RTX 2080Ti has an upper hand over the RTX 3070 depending upon the title. But the competition is stiff between both Nvidia GPUs and the main point here is the pricing [if scalping can be avoided]. The price point of RTX 3070 is way low as compared to the launched price of RTX 2080Ti with 2080Ti being the enthusiast-grade GPU gaming solution from the Nvidia. Ray Tracing and DLSS Benchmarks: Graphene nano lubricant can extend the life of fan by 2.1 times, close to the life of double ball bearing, and is quieter. has introduced the DLSS feature test to measure the performance gain if any using the DLSS using the Port Royal benchmark. The test repeats itself without DLSS and with DLSS. The user can select from three resolutions. We have used DLSS2 for the testing. Both metrics have been tested: Performance and Quality. Depending on the model, Nvidia has employed a fast platform for VRAM using GDDR6X only on RTX 3080 and 3090 and GDDR6 on the RTX 3070. Another improvement is HDMI 2.1 with full 48 Gbps bandwidth. The architecture is based on 8nm on the SAMSUNG platform.

The front of the card features three alternate spinning fans that bring fresh air to the heatpipe system. It’s a full two PCI-e slots wide and sports two Display Port 1.4a connections and two HDMI 2.1 connections. The GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3070 VISION OC 8G uses the better power phase design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperature, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET, plus the Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life. We have roughly 39% performance hit on 1080P, 38% on 1440P, and 44% on 4K resolution. The Ray tracing was set at Medium settings without DLSS.Broaden Your Horizons is the tagline of the VISION series. The salient features of the graphics card are highlighted on the top like RGB Fusion 2.0, Windforce Cooling using 3x fans. The graphics card is based on Nvidia’s Ampere architecture using Ray Tracing and DLSS. The graphics card uses the better power phase design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperature, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET, plus the Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life. We have a 34% hit on 1080P with Ray tracing. This hit was 37% on 1440P. But given the FPS were over 60 at any time on these two resolutions, the gameplay was super smooth with the goodness of the ray tracing. The performance hit was more evident at 4k resolution with 53%. From a size perspective, it’s a fairly standard size card. While it is long, it’s not tall so your case doesn’t have to grow two ways make room for it. Specifically, it is 11.25 inches long, 4.5 inches tall, and 2 inches wide. This is about an inch shorter on each measurement compared to the MSI GeForce RTX 3070 GAMING X TRIO that we recently looked at. For an additional comparison, the GeForce RTX 3070 Founders edition’s length is 9 inches long, so the GIGABYTE video card is 2.25 inches longer. GIGABYTE WINDFORCE 3X This game is added recently hence we don’t have the results from other cards due to the non-availability of these cards.

The RTX 3070 was drawing more power than the RTX 2080. This card like the other RTX graphics cards that I have tested was constantly hitting the power target. RTX 3070 Thermal Performance:Since the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3070 VISION OC is more aimed at the content creators and professionals, we also ran a few rendering tests using the graphics card. Here are the results: Gigabyte's Vision series is a new sub-brand aimed towards content creators and professionals instead of the traditional gaming markets. The RTX 3070 Vision features a beautiful white and silver finish. There's almost nothing 'gamery' about this card -- which is a good thing. The airflow is spilt by the triangular fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the airflow. The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in a low load or low power game. It allows gamers to enjoy gameplay in complete silence when the system is running light or idle. GIGABYTE is utilizing its WINDFORCE 3X cooling setup that consists of a cooling system features 3x80mm fans with unique fan blades that spin in alternate directions and 5 copper heat pipes that directly touch the GPU. GIGABYTE says that fans spinning in alternate directions can reduce the turbulence of adjacent fans and increase air pressure. The unique blade fans improve upon regular fans by splitting the airflow by a triangular fan edge and guide the air through a 3D stripe curve on the fan surface. Finally, graphene nano lubricant is utilized to increase the life of the fan. Pictures and Information The performance hit was roughly 42% on 1080P, 41% on 1440P, and 42% on 4K resolution.
