ASUS TUF GAMING GeForce RTX 3070 Ti V2 OC 8GB GDDR6X Graphics Card

The ASUS TUF GAMING GeForce RTX 3070 Ti V2 OC has been stripped down and built back up to provide more robust power and cooling. A new all-metal shroud houses three powerful axial-tech fans that utilise durable dual ball fan bearings. Fan rotation has been optimised for reduced turbulence, and a stop mode brings all three fans to a halt at low temps. Beneath, independent heatsinks for the GPU and memory keep thermals under tight control. Additional features, including TUF components, Auto-Extreme Technology, a new GPU bracket, and a backplate vent make the TUF a proper powerhouse. For builders looking for a new “old faithful”, this card has your back.

About the ASUS TUF GAMING GeForce RTX 3070 Ti V2 OC Graphics Card

AXIAL-TECH UPGRADES

ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 Ti V2 OC cards leverage tried-and-true Axial-tech fan design, with three fans working in tandem to satisfy the thermal demands of NVIDIA’s new high-octane design. In addition, the fans rely on dual ball fan bearings to ensure consistent performance and increased longevity compared to sleeve bearings and other bearing types.

MAXCONTACT HEATSINK

To get heat into the heatsink array efficiently so that it can be whisked away by the powerful axial-tech fans, ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 Ti V2 OC cards are manufactured using a process that improves the surface smoothness of the heat spreader at the microscopic level. The extra flatness allows for better contact with the die for improved thermal transfer.

2.7-SLOT DESIGN

The heat spreader draws heat up into heatpipes that carry it through a fin stack that fills most of the card’s large, 2.7-slot footprint. This generation of TUF Gaming graphics cards also features a dedicated heatsink for VRAM to keep temperatures well under maximum operating specs.

TUF COMPONENTS

Components are selected for TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 Ti OC graphics cards based on their durability and performance. In addition to top-shelf chokes and MOSFETs, capacitors that meet military-grade certification make the TUF stand tall amongst the competition. The components are soldered to the PCB using our advanced Auto-Extreme automated manufacturing process. Smooth joints on the rear of the PCB and eliminating human errors ensure each graphics card meets our rigorous specifications. Finally, to ensure flawless performance when it counts, the cards are subjected to a gruelling 144-hour validation trial.

IT’S COOLER OUT BACK

The underside of the card reveals a host of improvements. Most of the rear is swathed in a protective metal backplate that prominently features a wide vent. The vent allows hot air to escape towards chassis exhaust fans instead of being recycled back into the GPU cooler. Beneath the GPU, a bracket provides consistent mounting pressure between the die and the heat spreader. Stainless steel is used for the I/O bracket to protect ports and provide a more secure mount. A conveniently placed Dual Bios switch allows customization of the card’s default performance profile without software.

ALL NEW SHROUD

An all-aluminium shroud adds robust protection to TUF Gaming graphics cards and a no-nonsense industrial design and grayscale colourway fits into any build with ease.
