AI Summary
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 delivers solid 1080p and respectable 1440p performance for its time, offering smooth gaming at high settings in most titles. Priced at $379 at launch in 2016, it remains a capable option for budget-conscious gamers today, especially when found second-hand, though newer RTX 3060 Ti and RX 6600 cards outperform it significantly.
Pros
- Excellent 1080p performance with averages of 60+ FPS in most games on ultra settings, including Devil May Cry 5 (102 FPS) and Far Cry New Dawn (96 FPS)
- Solid 1440p capability with playable frame rates (40+ FPS) in many titles such as Darksiders III and The Surge
- 8GB of VRAM prevents bottlenecks in most 1080p and 1440p games, even by modern standards
Cons
- Struggles at 4K resolution, averaging below 30 FPS in most games even with upscaled settings, such as Crysis 2 Remastered (7 FPS)
- Outclassed by modern mid-range GPUs like RTX 3060 Ti and RX 6600 XT that offer ray tracing and DLSS/FSR support
- Released in 2016, it lacks modern features such as ray tracing cores and does not support DLSS, limiting its competitiveness in newer games
