NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition graphics card 8GB GDDR6X

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition is a graphics card built for 1440p gaming and creative workloads. It uses the GeForce RTX 3070 GPU with 5888 CUDA cores and a 256-bit memory interface. The card delivers a core clock of 1500 MHz and a boost clock of 1730 MHz. It connects via a PCI Express 4.0 slot.

Suited for 1440p gaming and GPU compute

This card suits users targeting high-refresh 1440p play or GPU-accelerated applications such as rendering and encoding. The 8GB GDDR6X frame buffer and 220W thermal design power require a 650W power supply. Buyers needing more memory for 4K texture packs or heavy VRAM workloads should consider a model with a larger buffer.

8GB GDDR6X memory capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 8GB GDDR6X memory capacity on a 256-bit bus. It provides 14000 MHz effective memory clock bandwidth for modern titles at 1440p. If your workflow or target resolution demands more than 8GB of video memory, this model will be a limiting factor.
