ASUS GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Dual EVO OC 12GB GDDR6X Black

The ASUS Dual RTX 4070 SUPER EVO is a quiet, compact 1440p powerhouse with excellent user sentiment and DLSS 3 support. It's not a 4K card and the 12GB VRAM is a limitation, but at $580 it's a fantastic deal. If you're upgrading from an older GPU and gaming at 1440p, buy it.

The 4070 SUPER sits in a sweet spot. With 7168 CUDA cores and a 29.15 TFLOPS FP32 rating, it chews through 1440p gaming without breaking a sweat. Raster performance lands in the 83rd percentile, which is well above average, and ray tracing hits the 75th percentile, solid but not chart-topping. DLSS 3 and frame generation are the real party tricks here, pushing frame rates way past what raw horsepower alone would suggest. The PassMark G3D score of 29946 backs that up. Where it stumbles is AI and VRAM. The 12GB buffer and 192-bit bus put it in the 59th percentile for both, so heavy AI workloads or 4K texture packs will make it sweat. For gaming though, it's a monster at 1080p and 1440p.

Against the MSI Ventus RTX 5070 Ti, the 4070 SUPER gives up raw performance and VRAM, but it's also a lot cheaper and easier to find in stock. The Gigabyte AORUS 5080 is in a completely different league, both in performance and price, so that's not really a fair fight. The ZOTAC APOCALYPSE 5080 is another big step up, but again, you're paying for it. Where the ASUS Dual shines is efficiency and size. It's smaller, quieter, and draws less power than those bigger cards. If you're on a 750W PSU and don't want to upgrade, this card makes a lot of sense. The Sapphire NITRO+ is an AMD option, so that's a different conversation entirely, but the 4070 SUPER's DLSS 3 advantage is real if you play games that support it.

Pricing is all over the place right now. US listings range from $580 to $700, which is a $120 spread for the exact same card. If you're buying, shop around and don't pay the high end. At $580, this is a fantastic deal for 1440p gaming. At $700, it's harder to justify when you're creeping toward next-tier territory. The 4.6-star average across 538 reviews tells you owners feel good about what they paid. Our affordability percentile sits at 42nd, so it's not cheap, but the performance per dollar is strong if you snag a good price.

The ASUS Dual RTX 4070 SUPER EVO is one of those cards that just gets the job done without making a fuss. It's a 2.5-slot, dual-fan card packing 12GB of GDDR6X and a 2550MHz boost clock, aimed squarely at 1440p gamers who want high frame rates without a massive case or power bill. Our database puts user sentiment in the 96th percentile, which is basically owners saying 'yeah, this thing rules' in unison.

It's not the flashiest card on the shelf. No RGB light show, no triple-fan monster cooler. But the 0dB mode keeps it silent during light loads, and the Axial-tech fans do solid work when things heat up. At 227mm long, it fits in a lot of smaller builds where bigger cards simply won't go.

Skip this if you're gaming at 4K or planning to within the next couple years. The 12GB VRAM and 192-bit bus will hold you back, and you'll be shopping again sooner than you'd like. Also skip it if you're already on a 4070 or 4070 Ti, the gains aren't worth the cost. And if you're doing serious AI work or content creation that needs lots of VRAM, look at a 16GB card instead.

This card is for the 1440p gamer who wants high settings and smooth frame rates without rebuilding their entire PC. It's quiet, cool, compact, and delivers where it counts. If you're coming from a 3060 Ti or 3070, the jump is substantial. If you're already on a 4070 or better, this isn't your upgrade. And if you're chasing 4K, look elsewhere. But for the vast middle of gamers, this is one of the best values on the market right now.
