Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 Ti OC Edition 8GB GDDR6X Graphics Card
The Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 Ti OC Edition features NVIDIA Ampere Streaming Multiprocessors. The building blocks for the world’s fastest, most efficient GPU, the all-new Ampere SM brings 2X the FP32 throughput and improved power efficiency. It delivers a boost clock of 1875 MHz (OC mode)/ 1845 MHz (Gaming Mode). The Asus ROG RTX 3070 Ti OC Edition has been radically improved to accommodate the impressive new Ampere chips from NVIDIA and to deliver the next wave of gaming performance innovation to the market. You can experience 2X the throughput of 1st gen RT Cores, plus concurrent RT and shading for a whole new level of ray tracing performance. Get up to 2X the throughput with structural sparsity and advanced AI algorithms such as DLSS. Now with support for up to 8K resolution, these cores deliver a massive boost in-game performance and all-new AI capabilities. Axial-tech Fan Design has been tuned up with more fan blades and a reversed rotational direction for the centre fan.
Asus ROG RTX 3070 Ti OC fresh design and more metal surround a grouping of Axial-tech fans. Last gen’s uniform fan layout has been usurped by a new rotation scheme and specialized roles for central and auxiliary fans. The blade count has been increased on all three fans, with 13 on the centre fan and 11 on the auxiliary fans. The barrier ring on the side fans has been slimmed down to allow for more lateral intake and to provide better airflow through the cooling array.
The centre fan’s extra blades and full-height ring provide boosted static pressure to blast air directly onto the GPU heat spreader. Below the blades, a larger, more impressive heatsink is ready for the most demanding thermal loads. The heat spreader draws heat up into heat pipes that carry it through a fin stack that fills a large 2.9-slot footprint. Increasing the heatsink size compared to the last generation provides more thermal headroom to account for the new high-performance chipset.
Asus ROG RTX 3070 Ti OC extra flatness allows for better contact with the die for improved thermal transfer. The PCB has some new tricks up its sleeves, and even the backplate has received some performance-boosting changes. A wide backplate vent and shortened PCB allows hot air to escape towards chassis exhaust fans instead of being recycled by the GPU’s circulating cooler design. A GPU bracket provides extra stability to the critical connection between the die and the heat spreader. The I/O bracket is made from stainless steel to protect ports and provide a more secure mount.

The ASUS GPU Tweak II utility takes graphics card tuning to the next level. It allows you to tweak critical parameters including GPU core clocks, memory frequency, and voltage settings, with the option to monitor everything in real-time through a customizable on-screen display. Advanced fan control is also included along with many more features to help you get the most out of your graphics card. The Asus ROG RTX 3070 Ti OC Edition comes with 2 years of warranty.
Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 Ti OC Edition 8GB GDDR6X Review
The new ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is the usual ROG Strix affair with a 2.9-slot design and triple-fan cooler, near-identical to the just-released ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 Ti graphics card. Underneath is the Ampere GA104 GPU on Samsung’s custom 8nm node, with 8GB of super-fast GDDR6X memory.
NVIDIA’s own GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Founders Edition graphics card is a much smaller dual-slot affair, so ASUS is going mega-chunky with its ROG Strix RTX 3070 Ti. We have the same trimmings on the ROG Strix RTX 3070 Ti as the higher-end RTX 3080 Ti, with an additional HDMI 2.1 port that enables single-cable 4K 120/144Hz and 8K 60Hz.
NVIDIA has made some rather big improvements with Ampere over the previous-gen Turing GPU architecture, with the new GeForce RTX 3070 Ti rocking 6144 CUDA cores against the 2560 CUDA cores found inside of the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER.
We have the new GeForce RTX 3070 Ti packing 48 SMs, 192 Tensor Cores (3rd Gen) and 48 RT Cores (2nd Gen) against the 40 SMs, 320 Tensor Cores (2nd Gen), and 40 RT Cores (1st Gen) inside of the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER.
GPU boost clocks are close to the same between the two GPUs, with the new GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Founders Edition with a base GPU clock of 1575MHz and boost GPU clock of 1770MHz — the base clock on the RTX 2070 SUPER is slightly higher.
But the major improvement here with the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is the use of GDDR6X memory, with NVIDIA using the same 8GB framebuffer… the new GDDR6X clocked at 19Gbps (up from 14Gbps on GDDR6) on the same 256-bit memory bus results in 608GB/sec of memory bandwidth (up from 448GB/sec on the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER).
Both of the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and GeForce RTX 3080 Ti graphics cards look virtually identical, where if you walked past a gaming PC with one of them inside of it… you wouldn’t be able to guess which GPU it would be. In saying that, I’m a big fan of the ASUS ROG Strix style here.
You’ll need a pretty crazy triple 8-pin PCIe power connector setup for the ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3070 Ti, that’s an entire additional 8-pin PCIe power connector over the dual 8-pin PCIe power requirements on the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Founders Edition and MSI RTX 3070 Ti SUPRIM X graphics cards.
