That you for this awesome video. I am upgrading my GPU this weekend from GTX 1060 6gb to a RTX 3060 12gb
Did you install or delete any drivers? Or did you just take out the old one and install the new one?
@krow120 Nope nothing. Just changed the cards, but now I have an RX6700XT
@@krow120 Do you have to? Im upgrading from a 1650 to a 4070S and i wanted to know if i have to use DDU before upgrading or if i can just install it and then update
@@Drkzy when you upgrade from nvidia to the same you don’t have to ddu. You just have to install the new card and update. Only have to ddu when you switch brands
Just upgraded from a 3060 Ti to this exact card. Paired it with a Ryzen 5700X and 64GB DDR4 on a MSI X570S Tomahawk MAX WiFi motherboard.
It's running like an absolute dream. 15,899 points on 3DMark Time Spy and temps not exceeding 57C.
Performance in games is amazing. Here are just some I tested (motion blur, depth of field and bloom turned off for personal preference):
Forza Horizon 5 1440p max - 98 FPS
Cyberpunk 1440p ultra (no RT) - 69 FPS (nice)
Shadow of the Tomb Raider 1440p max - 113 FPS (RT off) / 83 FPS (RT on)
Assassin's Creed Valhalla 1440p ultra high - 117 FPS
The Division 2 1440p max - 105 FPS
Very impressed with this card. Picked mine up for £473 using a 15% discount code on eBay.
My full specs:
Case - Lian Li Lancool 216
Motherboard - MSI X570S Tomahawk MAX WiFi
CPU - Ryzen 7 5700X
CPU Cooler - Arctic Freezer 36 ARGB Black
GPU - RTX 4070 Asus Dual OC
RAM - 64GB (2x32) Patriot Viper RGB DDR4 3600MT/s
PSU - 650W Riotoro Enigma G2 80+ Gold
SATA SSDs - 1TB Samsung EVO 860 + 2TB Crucial MX500
NVME SSD - 1TB WD SN850X

Case Fans - 2 x 160mm Lian Li (front) + 140mm Lian Li (rear) + 3 x 120mm Deepcool FK120 (top)
Thanks man! I ordered the same graphic card today. Saying goodbye to my 2060 6GB
Enjoy your upgrade! 🙌🏻
Bro I’m deadass doing the EXACT same thing lmao 2060 ain’t cutting it no more
Legit had the 2060 ti and got myself the 4070 ti SUPER today! So much help aha
@@applesauce6574selling them?
Did you change anything else to accommodate this GC upgrade?
Went from a 1650 laptop to a RTX 4070 custom build and man it’s a whole new world. This video is old but I hope your enjoying this GPU
Thanks for watching! Glad you’re enjoying it!
Hell yeah got the white version upgrading from a 1080
Thanks for the vid and funny enough this is the exact card upgrade im doing will save this vid for when it arrives haha
Ahhh awesome! It’s a great card! Happy Gaming!!
Been wanting to upgrade for months finally did. Ditched the 3060 12 gig and recently got a 4070 super. Knew with the way the launch was there was going to be a refresh. Waited it out till the super came and even lowered in price. Got a 4070 super msi Venus x3 for 600 been loving it. Mostly when I play it’s with the mates so shooters so it works great for that
Great presentation! Even though I'm very familiar with building computers there wasn't a moment where I wanted to fast-forward... especially with my unfamiliarity of current gen graphics cards that you're showing.
I hope you see this soon, and have a brief second to reply... it would be greatly appreciated as like yours did to you, my two graphics cards are teasing me as well...
I also have an older CPU; it's an i9 9900K., however, I ended up having Two cards here unopened, and teasing me, ergo, twice the torture. haha 1) ASUS Dual RTX 4070 OC 2) ASUS Dual RTX 4070 Super. One of these will be returned.
According to online stats and benchmarks my i9 9900K is ~20% faster than an AMD 2700X. The most taxing scenario on my potential setup will be gaming. My questions are:
A) Do you ever feel bottlenecking during your minimal gaming sessions with your 2700X & 4070?
B) In your experience do you think the Super would be too much horsepower for the i9 9900K to handle for gaming?
I just don't want to get into a scenario if I keep the Super, and wish I kept the 4070 OC because my CPU utilization is going through the roof with a 4070 Super version... which might happen anyway with a plain 4070...?

32 GB 3200MHz Ram

I don't plan to upgrade CPU/MB until I permanently move to Laos in a few years... currently in Chicago.
Perhaps you're more familiar with the AMD product line, but any advice or info, if possible, would really help. Thank You Very Much!
To be honest, I can’t really help.. I’d put this to the Linus Tech Tips forum for sure! Thanks so much for your kind words though!
Ran into some bad luck with mine. My 4070 Dual caused the PC not to boot, so I'm going to have to order a replacement. Hopefully I'll have better luck next time because it does seem like a stellar card!
Thanks for the installation part of the video. It looks like it will just fit on my 2 slots for my motherboard, the slot directly under for me is my wifi card. There is a bit of space and just measures for a fit.. if not then I'll get one of those USB wifi antennas.
Glad to help buddy!
i ordered a 4070 ti super on amazon prime day without thinking, now im here to learn how to put it in my pc 😂
Haha! Good luck!
One of the most important thing when installing the 4070 super is plugging the 12 h plug in. If you don't have a direct plug in for it and have to use the adapter that comes with it. Make sure you hook up the 2 -3( depending on maker) cables to it correctly. One land mine people step on is. There is one psu cable that has 2 6 pins pig tailed together, but are on the same cable. Don't use both of these on the adapter. Use only one of them, then the other from a different cable. Other wise it will fry the gpu within a week or so of us. Hope this helps.
Hi there, make sure when installing a 4070 ti super you avoid this land mine. If you have to use the adapter one of the 6 pin cables will have 2 6 pins on the same cable pig tail together. Don't use both of them, just one then another 6 pin from a different cable, other wise it will fry your gpu within a weeks time.
Thanks for the guide! Quick question: do you need to wipe GPU drivers before doing the hardware swap? I'm planning on upgrading from Nvidia to Nvidia
You should be okay.. would only be an issue if you were going to an AMD card.
@@kiphakesThanks for the response! I think your Asus card is brilliant because it can run on a single 8pin power connector. I have a tiny 2-fan 3070 and even that needs 2 8pins. Just shows how efficient the 40 series is compared to the 30 series.
Meanwhile, my new 4080 has the 12VHPWR connector and it's making me nervous... Hopefully it doesn't melt 🤞
I got my first pre built 4060 and Intel 14400f combo and i upload some videos in my YT channel. This video is perfect because i plan to upgrade in the future to the same card or 5070.
Thank you for the video! I just bought a RTX 4070 and watching this gave me a good idea of what to expect. Very good for information and confidence, haha.
Ahh I’m so glad! Please make sure you hit the thumbs up 👍🏼 so it gets pushed out to more people like you 🙌🏻🙏🏼
I been using a GTX 1060 6gb for years.
finally upgrading to a RTX 4070 super, it's kind of exciting and can't wait. even if my cpu is going to be bottle necked. and need to upgrade my motherboard ad cpu next.
Awesome! Enjoy!!
Could I run this graphics card with a ASRock Z390 Motherboard and a 750W PSU? Should I worry about bottlenecking with an I7 9700k CPU?
Thanks.
Definitely recommend asking on the Linus Tech Tips forum. I honestly couldn’t tell you!
Nice card Kip although this obviously has a minimum board, processor, memory and power requirement. What are your PC specs and the minimum specs required to run this card?
I will update the video description with all the details soon!
Great vid as Always kip top guy 😊
there is nothing called minimum specs to run a card, you can run this on a i5 2500 if you want too.
is it preferred? nope, does it work? definitely, me personally would not pair it with anything less than a 9900k-10900k/5600x/5700x/5800x.
Details all added!
Hello.
Can you please tell me if i'm gonna make a good upgrade for games and photography?
At this moment i have the Asus dual 1660 super 6GB and i'm thinking on buying the Asus dual 4070 super 12GB along with my CPU (I7-13700K)
Thank you
Absolutely! 👍🏼
@@kiphakes Thank you 🙂
thanks for the guide i have not installed a gpu in 3 years just upgraded from a 2070 super to 4070 what cpu and motherboard do you recommend that is not to pricey atm my cpu is i7-9700F but its bottlenecking the cpu by a lot in cpu insteive games but in gpu insteive its fine in cod mw2 it was getting 90% bottleneck im going to be upgrading my cpu motherboard and ram in about 3 weeks will the i5 12400F bottleneck it there is a webiste in my country nz that does a pc kit that has a ASRock B660M Pro i5 12400F will that be decent so my gpu can keep up with my cpu?
I’ll be completely honest - I know nothing of Intel CPUs ! I’m pleased with my setup, links are in the description.. might get a Ryzen 9 soon though
Just upgraded from a tuf 4070 to a 4070 ti super. When i power up the psu a red LED light comes on. Soon as i power the motherboard it goes away. Do you know what this red LED means? All cables plugged in tight. Some say its normal.
Thanks for the videos
It may just mean it’s receiving power, but the card isn’t displaying anything.. if it’s working fine I wouldn’t worry
you should talk about what needs to be done for bios and driver before installing
Well, in my case I didn’t need to, so I didn’t
what do silent mode vs performance mode do exactly?
Silent mode makes the fans run less..
is it safe to have my new card in and uninstall the old drivers that way? Switching from AMD to NVIDIA. (I don't have my AMD card anymore and those drivers are still installed)
There’s a free app called DDU you can download that removes all traces of the old drivers. Good luck!
Does this need to connect to the psu with 16 pins or 8, as mine is a 6+2 to an 8 and it is not booting up
8 pin, and you put the 6 and 2 pin together to make an 8
Do we not need to use DDU or something to clean it all out anymore?
Like I said in the video if you’re switching from AMD or Intel to Nvidia it’s a good idea, otherwise it’s not so much of an issue
Is there a difference in the type of 4070 gpu?! Mine says zotac gaming GeForce RTX on the side of it and mine is a 4070… regardless of it being Asus, zotac gaming, TUF gaming or MSI on the inside it’s still JUST an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 right?!?! The company name on it don’t mean anything?!?!
I think the “4070” part is just the processing chip. The brand name reflects on the overall wrapper unit that surrounds the chip, so they could differ with fans count/quality, and the materials of the wrapping build. Overall, it shouldn’t really matter, generally people say if you get better brands it’ll cool off the chip better so you’d get more performance, but it’s honestly so minimal that it’s absolutely not worth the couple hundred bucks difference at all
Please help me my pc has a 12pin connector but my 4070 has a 8 connector what do I do ? Sorry I’m new to this
Sure.. no problem! You need something like this amzn.to/3KIbRzW
@@kiphakesthank you ima try this out just earned my respect
@UplinkCobra good luck!!
Could I use the 4070 with a non atx 3.0 psu
Probably not
I have my old gpu Msia 1080 it gpu thinking about upgrading to the 4070
Great plan!
My computer is dell xps 8940, 11th gen intel i9K , ram 32GB, Nvidia Geforce GTX 1660Ti.
The graphics card has one 8 pin power connecter. There isn't an extra power connecter.
Anyone have recommendations for what I should upgrade to??
I don't know anything and don't want to mess up. I do video editing in Davinci Resolve and record gaming videos.
Hmmm you might be stuck because Dells sometimes use custom power supplies - normally I’d say just upgrade the power supply. Maybe ask on the LTT Forums
@@kiphakes Theres some photos on Amazon where it seems like theres only one 8 pin port on them.
So maybe its possible? Heres the title of it, to see if its makes sense for it to be one 8 pin:
ASUS Dual GeForce RTX™ 4060 V2 OC Edition (PCIe 4.0, 8GB GDDR6, DLSS 3, HDMI 2.1a, DisplayPort 1.4a, 2-slot design, Axial-tech fan design, 0dB technology, and more)
Its $310. Thanks for answering. I found the forum website, but do I have to sign up in order to post anything? No text box shows up anywhere other than search.

....bruh
Miaow!
Is realy bad, 4070 so loud, i dont buy Asus card no more.
I’m literally using mine right now .. not a peep
I’ve ordered this exact model and I’ve heard it’s one of the most silent ones lol
So it has this coin whine that’s one of the worst DEPENDING on your system. So it’s just a gamble. I got this cuz I can’t fit a bigger model and it’s supposed to be silent in a lot of other benchmarks. I’ll return it if it doesn’t go well with my Corsair psu
I’ve always had my case on the floor under the desk. Haven’t ever cared about sound:
4070 ti super?
Can i add this gpu to a ASUS PRIME A520M-A II motherboard? I want to be able to tun 4k 120hz ive currently got a rtx 4060
Should be absolutely fine!
i noticed you mention that you arent overclocking your gpu... actually you are ya know :) what it is... nvidia sets the recommended core frequencies for each chip and then power requirements and msrp (rrp in the uk etc...)... this is your founders edition spec... after that board partners (asus gigabyte etc) are relatively free to make their own changes to the base design into order to differentiate their product.. stuff like adding better beefier coolers , higher quality VRMs to control the power (NOT RAM THOUGH BECAUSE NVIDIA ARE NAZI's haha) and with that they are able to set their own core frequencies for their specific design . nvidias website says base clock is 1.92ghz and boost is 2.48ghz for the 4070... your gpu there will have the same base frequency but your quiet mode (which is still over clocked ) will boost to 2520mhz and the p mode (performance ) is also overclocked but a little further to 2550mhz boost according to asus's website... so ye there ya go... youre overclocking already- and its worth bearing in mind if you ever decide to you do actually want to overclock further because your card isnt being sold as "overclock capable" - theyre all overclock capable with respect to the silicon lottery... its being sold as actually already overclocked. thats it ...enjoy :D
