What reviewers say

Reviewers like the compact Founders Edition and DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, but were lukewarm overall. Tom's Hardware measured about 20 per cent more speed than the RTX 4070, while Club386 and PC Gamer found small gains in games without ray tracing and saw AMD's RX 9070 cards as stronger value; all three criticise the 12 GB of memory or the pricing.
