    Can you pls share what is the "Default" and user-overclockable "Max" Power Limit?

  • @1SaG
    @1SaG8 ай бұрын

    On the Gaming OC, power limit is quite a bit higher than on the reference 4070. The card lets you set the PL to around 300W - which it never reaches in my system. With a manual OC resulting in nearly 3000 MHz on the chip and an added 1000 MHz on the VRAM and power limit set to its maximum of 148% in Afterburner, my peak power draw will be slightly above 240W. Since it will constantly run into voltage limits (and I'm pretty sure I can't raise the voltage above the 1.10V default max), I suspect that unless you do some sort of hardware-mod, you'll never get the card to draw anywhere close to its theoretical maximum. Still: It will reach 240+ pretty easily and that's 40 W more than the standard 4070s. Not sure if that means higher real world performance, but my benchmark-results with the card are pretty good.

    Here is your next video because I am confused. How we attach the 4070 aero or gaming oc to the gpu bracket? I think the 4070 is much smaller in size compared with the Ti version. Does gigabyte sell the gpu brackets in their store? If there is any...

    Gigabyte doesn't include the bracket in the 4070 for some reason. Only 4070 Ti. You could always get a prop-up kickstand for it. Not sure where you would get it but look for something called an "Anti-Sag Bracket. You might need to get two. One for the front and one for the back. I still think the 4070 needs some support even if it is smaller.

    Thanks, yeah I know, but I also find it strange, since we have plenty of articles about cracking gpus, what GIGABYTE did in this situation. Also, if I may, I wish to know if the pcb is improved, the thickness of it. I am about to order a Gigabyte 4070 aero OC, but I am also somewhat in a decline. I asked from my seller to place the order in 2 days (Monday), but not sure if I must halt it, what your take into that? I love how beautiful the white aero is, it fits perfectly with my shadow rock 3 white cpu cooler and silent base 800s case with temp-glass window… As for gpu holder, I like the coolermaster argb tempered glass, but I wish to have the gigabyte as well.@@GLITCHEDZA

    This is a Gigabyte one. It came with the 4070 Ti but for some reason, they didn't include it in the 4070. I have been told you can't buy the separately so you'll need to get a 4070 Ti, 4080 or 4090 to get it. Else look for a third-party one. I know, it isn't ideal. They should really make them available across all GPUs now.

    I had mine in two cases. bequiet Pure Base 600 first which is probably about average size for a midi tower and now the Fractal Pop Air RGB XL which is on the larger side for a midi tower. The card fit both cases, no problem. Although my chipset temps were quite a bit higher with the bequiet, probably due to superior airflow on the Fractal with its all mesh front.

    Wish I could help with detailed information on this but I can tell you these cards are almost identical. They have the same core count and boost core clock speed. So there's no real determining factor between them all. It is simply which brand you prefer to go with. Also the design changes on them too. But internal performance and specs are the same.

    The Gigabyte cards are mostly identical, to be honest. They obviously feature a different design so if you like white, you'll go with Aero. They all have the same Windforce cooling system too. They also all have the same clock speed and VRAM, same performance too. Even the Gaming OC model, while you may think it is better, it is pretty much the same. The only performance difference you'll see is on the Master/Xtreme range. But these are like 1-3% faster. The performance boost isn't worth stressing over. So the model you want is all depending on your style preference.
