Verdict

The Asus Turbo GeForce GTX 1070 TiGo to product viewer dialogue for this item. is a high-performance graphics card built on the NVIDIA Pascal architecture, featuring 2,432 CUDA cores, a base clock of 1,607 MHz, and a boost clock of 1,683 MHz. It is equipped with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a memory bandwidth of 256.3 GB/s, and includes dual VR-friendly HDMI 2.0 ports alongside two DisplayPort 1.4 outputs. Key advantages include its compact blower-style cooling system that exhausts heat out of the chassis—making it ideal for small form factor builds or multi-GPU setups—and its use of Auto-Extreme technology for enhanced reliability. However, its primary drawbacks are higher noise levels under load compared to open-air coolers and generally higher operating temperatures common to blower designs.

What customers like about ASUS Turbo GTX 1070 Ti?

  • Excellent performance for 1440p gaming and smooth 1080p ultra settings
  • Optimized for compact builds with a blower-style fan that exhausts heat directly from the case
  • High reliability featuring Auto-Extreme Technology and a dual ball-bearing fan for a longer lifespan
  • VR-ready with two HDMI ports for simultaneous headset and display connection
  • Customisable aesthetic with a backlit logo that can be swapped for personal designs
  • Power-efficient compared to older generations, offering a marked improvement in performance-per-watt

What customers dislike about ASUS Turbo GTX 1070 Ti?

  • Blower-style cooling is generally louder and less efficient than multi-fan open-air designs
  • Can reach high temperatures (up to 79°C-80°C) under heavy load, typical for reference-style blowers
  • Large physical dimensions make it a 'massive' card that might not fit in all mid-tower cases
  • Price-to-performance can be awkward, as high-end 1070 Ti models often cost as much as a base GTX 1080
  • Lacks advanced lighting features for users who prefer 'disco-style' RGB effects
