The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 is NVIDIA’s upper-midrange Ampere card aimed at 1080p ultra and 1440p high. It scores 59/100 on our 1440p gaming index. 8 GB of VRAM is tight for 4K but fine at 1080p / 1440p. Ray tracing works but expect to lean on upscaling for higher resolutions. Supports DLSS 2 for upscaling.
