VIEW GALLERY - 86 IMAGES Today I have yet another graphics card you cant buy, the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 OC Edition graphics card, which sits in a good position on the benchmark charts and looks mean as hell like the rest of the RTX 30 series ROG Strix graphics cards from ASUS.

Once you can find the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 OC Edition graphics card available to buy, it is a formidable 1440p beast for virtually any game out on the market -- including Cyberpunk 2077, if you mix in some of NVIDIAs magic DLSS technology.

ASUS has a higher 280W TDP on the ROG Strix RTX 3070 graphics card, with an OC Mode that drives the GPU clocks up to 1905MHz -- but dont worry, theres room for some overclocking which Ive got in the benchmark charts as always.

NVIDIA prices its impossible-to-buy GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition at 499, while the still-impossible-to-buy ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 OC Edition listed on NewEgg for 720.

Everything You Need to Know About Ampere Theres much more going under the hood of the Ampere GPU architecture powering the GeForce RTX 3070, with some rather big upgrades across the board on the GPU side of things while the VRAM and memory bandwidth is virtually identical.

ASUS marketing You can read all about the card on the official ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3070 OC Edition website.

Detailed Look We once again have great retail boxes, so if you can find the graphics card in the future one day hopefully -- you will know that this is a great looking box.

ASUS goes with the usual RTX 30 series ROG Strix style, which for this price range (again, if you can buy it) I really love.

Its a great-looking card with RGB lighting that doesnt take over the card.

Ive got some more pictures of the RGB lighting on the card (front and back) down below.

Im a huge fan of the backplate on the ROG Strix graphics cards, and the RTX 3070 version of the card is no exception.

It looks damn good -- if not better around the back, than it does on the front.

ASUS is using a chunky 2.9-slot design on the ROG Strix RTX 3070 graphics card, but it is using it to good effect here.

Its a thicc card, but it looks mean AF -- and has the performance numbers and noise levels to prove it.

Youll need dual 8-pin PCIe power connectors for the card, thankfully theres not 3 here.

You can of course customize this all through OC software, but the switches are nice.

Test System Specs Latest upgrade: Sabrent sent over their huge Rocket Q 8TB NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD, which will be my new Games install SSD inside of my main test bed.

Ive got a new upgrade inside of my GPU test bed before my change to a next-gen test bed, where I will be preparing for NVIDIAs next-gen Ampere graphics cards and AMDs next-gen RDNA 2 graphics cards.

Sabrent helped out with some new storage for my GPU test beds, sending over a slew of crazy-fast Rocket NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSDs.

Ive got this installed into my GPU test bed as the new Games Storage drive, since games are so damn big now.
