💬 FPSHQ advice

The GeForce RTX 4070 Super is a great 1440p choice. Watch VRAM in new AAA games with RT — 12 GB is sometimes tight. Turn on DLSS/FSR Quality — that is a "free" 30–40% FPS with no image loss.

Frequently asked questions about the GeForce RTX 4070 Super

Which power supply does the GeForce RTX 4070 Super need?
Card TDP: 220 W. We recommend a PSU of at least 550 W from a quality maker (Seasonic, Corsair, be quiet!, Cooler Master). Cheap PSUs without 80+ Gold can cause reboots under load.
How much VRAM does the GeForce RTX 4070 Super have?
VRAM: 12 GB GDDR6X. Memory bus: 192 bit. Enough for 1440p in most games.
Is the GeForce RTX 4070 Super good for 4K gaming?
Depends on expectations. In current AAA games at 4K@ultra: yes, but with DLSS/FSR Quality for a stable 60 FPS.
Which is better: the GeForce RTX 4070 Super or the Acer Predator BiFrost Radeon RX 7900 GRE?
We have a detailed comparison: GeForce RTX 4070 Super vs Acer Predator BiFrost Radeon RX 7900 GRE. The short answer depends on your needs: NVIDIA is better in some games, the rival in others. Also factor in price and supported technologies.
Does the GeForce RTX 4070 Super support DLSS or FSR?
Yes, the GeForce RTX 4070 Super supports DLSS (NVIDIA's AI upscaling). DLSS 3 Frame Generation is also available to generate extra frames. FSR is supported too, but on NVIDIA, DLSS usually looks better.
Which CPU pairs best with the GeForce RTX 4070 Super?
To avoid a CPU bottleneck, for the GeForce RTX 4070 Super we recommend: Ryzen 7 5800X3D / 7800X3D / Core i5-14600K / Core i7-13700K — the optimal balance.
How loud is the GeForce RTX 4070 Super?
FPSHQ does not measure noise; it depends on the cooler of a specific version (ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, Palit, PNY, etc.). Official power is 220 W — moderate: versions with a large cooler and fan stop at idle run quieter. Models are compared by power on the “Quietest graphics cards” page.
What are the GeForce RTX 4070 Super's length and slot size?
Dimensions depend on the specific vendor model. Reference versions are usually 2.5–3.5 slots and 28–32 cm long. ASUS ROG / MSI Suprim X / Gigabyte AORUS — up to 3.5–4 slots and 32–36 cm. Before buying, check that the card fits your case (especially in Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX builds).
Can the GeForce RTX 4070 Super be overclocked?
Yes, via MSI Afterburner or GPU Tweak III you can raise the Core Clock by 100–200 MHz and the Memory Clock by 500–1500 MHz with little risk. The FPS gain is usually 3–7%. For safe overclocking, set the power limit to max, raise clocks gradually and test stability in OCCT/3DMark.
Will the GeForce RTX 4070 Super still be relevant in 2027–2028?
Depends on the card's class. A-class cards usually stay relevant for 4–5 years after release in the 1440p segment.
Where is the best place to buy the GeForce RTX 4070 Super?
The lowest prices are usually during big sales (11.11, Cyber Monday, Black Friday). On marketplaces prices swing a lot — look for sellers rated 4.5+. Classified-ad platforms with store warranty are for those willing to risk it for 15–20% off MSRP. Use our prices section to track discounts.
