What reviewers say

Reviewers found performance close to the original RTX 2070, useful extra memory over the RTX 2060 and capable 1440p gaming. They considered demanding 4K less comfortable and noted the higher launch price than the RTX 2060. PC Gamer, TechRadar and PCWorld tested the Founders Edition; partner cooling and noise can differ.
