The GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER WINDFORCE MAX OC 16G is a product update featuring some nifty upgrades. The GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER WINDFORCE MAX OC 16G, aside from being a mouthful, is the latest addition to GIGABYTE’s WINDFORCE MAX product line featuring increased cooling. This new model also has something folks looking for easier cable management will be highly interested in, a hidden 12V-2×6 connector. Now while this card is one of the longer ones, at 331 mm, the power connector is significantly recessed under the cooler making connecting and hiding much easier than many other graphics cards.

Key Features (per product page):

  • Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace arch, and full ray tracing
  • 4th Generation Tensor Cores: Up to 4x performance with DLSS 3 vs. brute-force rendering
  • 3rd Generation RT Cores: Up to 2X ray tracing performance
  • Powered by GeForce RTX™ 4070 Ti SUPER
  • Integrated with 16GB GDDR6X 256bit memory interface
  • WINDFORCE Cooling System
  • Maximum Heatsink Design
  • Dual BIOS
  • Protection metal back plate
  • Anti-sag bracket

GIGABYTE has not revealed pricing and availability for the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER WINDFORCE MAX OC 16G but if the price is right it could be a good option for those seeking high performance with great cooling. As a reminder, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER series features the same GPU as the RTX 4080, just with fewer cores and slower memory. However, this model is factory overclocked. We have a review of the previous WINDFORCE model here.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
