Thats 120 / $100 more than the RTX 3070 launched at, which isnt ideal.
But I cant muster the same horrified shock for this price bump that theRTX 4080andRTX 4090induced so effortlessly.
That immediately makes it a better deal than one of the 30 series' heaviest hitters.
Second, the RTX 4070 does make improvements beyond FPS counts.
Then theres DLSS 3.
Thenumber of games that support thisis, to be sure, quite small.

This is also one reason why the RTX 4070 is better suited to 1440p.
Depending on the game.
Playing at 1440p also lets the RTX 4070 handle top-quality ray tracing without always needing backup from an upscaler.
With frame generation, that became 106fps.
But I still dont recommend it.
And its not like youd need the extra AI-generated frames anyway.
At 1440p, on the other hand, the RTX 4070 shines.
That it does so while cutting the amount of electricity it drinks is a very pleasant surprise as well.
