What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.6 for now.

What owners say about the ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5070

Based on 233 owners sharing their experience in online comments

82%positive6%mixed12%negative

Owners praise strong gaming speed and DLSS frame generation, while limited video memory is their main concern.

What owners dislike

  • Owners find 12 GB of VRAM tight in some open-world or texture-heavy games, where usage reaches 13 to 16 GB at 1440p. Lowering textures helps.5
  • Frame generation can add noticeable input lag, around 30 to 35 ms latency versus 15 to 20 ms without it, and cause ghosting in racing or driving.4

Points mentioned by at least 3 owners, most mentioned first.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5070

  • Excellent 1440p performance, capable of high frame rates in modern AAA titles
  • Effective dual-fan cooler that remains quiet under typical gaming loads
  • Compact 2-slot design (approx. 267mm) that fits easily in most mid-tower and small-form-factor cases
  • Advanced feature set including DLSS 4 and AV1 encoding for streamers
  • Low power consumption (approx. 218W-220W) and high energy efficiency
  • Significant upgrade for users coming from older cards like the RTX 3070 or earlier

What customers don't like about ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5070

  • 12GB VRAM is considered limiting for native 4K gaming in demanding 2025/2026 titles
  • Minor performance uplift (roughly 8-10%) over the previous RTX 4070 Super
  • The 16-pin power connector is viewed by some as an unnecessary complication for this tier of card
  • Requires DLSS frame generation to meet high performance claims, as raw rasterization gains are modest
  • Lack of RGB lighting may be a downside for users focused on PC aesthetics

Verdict

The Asus Dual GeForce RTX 5070 is a high-performance mid-range graphics card built on NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture, featuring 6,144 CUDA cores and 12GB of cutting-edge GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus. It operates with a boost clock of up to 2,542 MHz (2,572 MHz in OC mode) and utilizes a dual-fan cooling system equipped with Axial-tech fans and durable dual-ball bearings. Key pros include its compact 2.5-slot design suitable for smaller builds, exceptionally quiet operation even under load, and support for the latest DLSS 4 and PCIe 5.0 standards. However, notable cons include its relatively high power draw of 250W compared to predecessors and a 12GB VRAM capacity that some enthusiasts consider limited for future-proofing in high-resolution 4K gaming.
