10 Aug 2021 - Graphics card reviewed

This computer hardware provides top end graphics. The GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB will easily meet recommended system requirements of games released today. This is a strong benchmarker on modern games and can often return excellent frame rates at high and ultra 1080p. But the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB can also run 1440p pc system requirements.

Capable of running games with up to a DirectX 12 requirement.

What FPS performance can the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB get on latest AAA 2023 games? In particular our game review looks at the FPS achieved running on Ultra graphics settings on the 1080p screen resolution as well as 1440p and 4K. This graphics hardware can run 978 of the 1000 most demanding PC games played today.

The 1080p FPS on Ultra for the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB shows us that Resident Evil 8 is getting a good result of 62 FPS, and then we are seeing Forza Horizon 5 returning a good 62 FPS while another game on our list is the Grand Theft Auto VI which is predicted to get 57 frames per second at Ultra 1080p.

We move on to 1440p, and tested Forza Horizon 5 which delivered reasonable FPS results. Here are the graphic presets - Low: 124 FPS, Medium: 98 FPS, High: 66 FPS and Ultra: 47 FPS. Next we have Grand Theft Auto VI running on GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB which is predicted to get L: 115FPS, M: 90FPS, H: 61FPS, U: 43FPS. And for performance contrast the popular Resident Evil 8 gets L: 124FPS, M: 98FPS, H: 66FPS, U: 47FPS at 1440p. 1440p gaming on the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB is certainly a good graphics cards for this increased screen resolutions. It can confidentantly get High or Ultra graphics settings across almost all current games at 1440p.

How many years will the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB in your PC? 2-3 years of top end gaming before an upgrade

Whats a good PC graphics upgrade for the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB? There are no graphics cards on the current market that would provide a big enough increase in performance to warrant upgrading the GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB.

GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB Game Requirement Analysis

Overview The GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB is a High-End Graphics Card based on the 12nm Turing Architecture and is considered a great 1440p video card. This is a dual-slot graphics card with three 100mm Windforce alternate spinning fans, RGB Fusion 2.0 lighting, four copper heat pipes with direct GPU contact, and metal backplate. This video card has poor overclocking potential. Architecture It equips a cut-down Turing GPU Codenamed TU106, more specifically the TU106-400-A1 variant which is not permitted for a factory overclock. This is a First Gen Turing GPU and has 16 SM activated, offering 2304 CUDA Shader Processing Units, 144 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. The Turing architecture provides the world's first consumer support for real-time ray-tracing (RTX) technology. It is equipped with 288 Tensor Cores for AI purposes and 32 RT Cores for ray-tracing. GPU The central unit runs at 1410 MHz and goes up to 1620 MHz in Boost Mode, the same speed as the reference model. Memory The GPU accesses an 8GB frame buffer of Second Gen GDDR6 through a 256-bit memory interface, while the Memory Clock Operates at 1750MHz, or 14GHz effective. Total memory bandwidth is 448GB/s. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 175W, it requires at least a 550W PSU with one available 8-pin and one 6-pin power connector. Performance The GeForce RTX 2070 offers performance in between the GeForce GTX 1080 and GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, albeit also boasting ray-tracing and DLSS support. System Suggestions The GeForce RTX 2070 Gigabyte Windforce 8GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840x2160. We recommend a high-end processor and 16GB of RAM for optimal performance.
