Palit GeForce RTX 3070 GamingPro 8GB GPU

Amazing card. Arrived next day.

Great GPU. Very cool and quiet. I swapped this for the Zotac 3070 OC and glad I did as this runs much cooler and consequently much quieter. Very pleased with it.

I purchased the RTX 3070 to tide me over until I could get a 3080. Despite being a lower spec, it's an incredibly powerful card and would hold its own in most modern systems, playing games at top specs. If you're building a mid to high end PC the 3070 will be a perfect choice, but if you're going for top specs, opt for the 3080. (Don't consider the 3090 unless you already specifically know the reason you need it; and no, more FPS in a game isn't that reason.)

The item came with some minor coil whine but has recently improved a little bit. Great customer service provided by CCL staff and I would highly recommend their business.

As far as 3070s go it's hard to go wrong with this one. It clocks nicely out of the box, while remaining pretty silent. There is no doubt there are 3070s out there more suited to squeezing out a few percent of performance, but additionally at a higher cost. The card is actually quite understated in person and fits quite well in a zero RGB build (despite all the marketing art making it look "gamery") and will look nice in basically any PC. The majority of the RGB is on the bottom of the card so even if you keep it on, it's not particularly in your face. The Palit software is decent and doesn't feel as janky as some GPU software does. I appreciate the inclusion of OC tools even if I'd still advise to go for MSI afterburner or similar
