The Zotac GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity OC is just one of many variants of NVIDIA’s new mid-tier/high-end Super Series GPU. As per the trend, this version of the card is dressed up with the brand’s own cooling solutions and aesthetics, and in this review, we have the pristine White edition in our labs to play with.
Specifications
Design
The RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity OC that I have here in my lab is, as mentioned at the start of this review, the White Edition SKU, and it’s hard to deny the allure of an all-white cooler shroud. As it is a Zotac card, you get the brand’s interpretation for cooling the GPU core and its PCB. This includes its IceStorm 2.0 Advanced Cooling, Freeze Fan Stop, and an intricately designed metal backplate for good measure. Plus the added rigidity reduces sagging, but it also comes with a support stand.
Of course, this RTX 4070 Ti Super also gets the standard fare of RGB LEDs built into its spine, as well as the Zotac Gaming logo on the backplate. On another note, the corners of the shroud are rounded out, making it so that there aren’t any sharp parts that would dig into the hands or fingers.
Testbench
As I did with an earlier review of the RTX 4070 Ti Super, I will be benching this Trinity OC White edition GPU against the other RTX 4070 models, including the Ti Super model from its competitor Gigabyte. It is important to note that one game in particular, Starfield, will have a dramatically increase average fps performance and that is due to the game having been updated to run on AMD’s FSR3 upscaling technology.
Oh, and the score that you see for the MSI Ventus 3X RTX 4070 Ti Super are post-BIOS updates. Truth be told, the data results obtained after the fact were more or less on the same field, with its synthetic benchmarks being only marginally better before said BIOS update.
Benchmarks, Temperatures, And Power Consumption
As we use the non-Super RTX 4070 Ti as the base line, the RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity OC’s improvement ranges from minimal to substantial, at least on a synthetic level. In 3DMark and Unigine Superposition, it also seems to be a tad faster and more powerful than its MSI counterpart.
When it comes to gaming, it is, once again, a mixed bag. It’s odd really: Doom Eternal is one of those titles that I expect the RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity OC to at least be running on the same average framerates as other rival GPUs, more or less depending on the titles. Again, the only title where the card really excelled was with in Starfield but that is purely due to the game’s use of FSR3 and Frame Generation, and nothing more.
One game that isn’t listed here, Helldivers 2, shows the RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity OC capable of maintaining close to a 100 fps average at 1440p, and that’s with the game running at native resolution, and not supersampling.
Moving on, The RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity OC does appear to run hotter, both when it is idle and running at load. Specifically, it’s between four and six degrees higher than the MSI Ventus 3X, and close to 11°C higher than the non-Super variant of the card.
Conclusion
At RM4,439, the Zotac GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super can and will burn a pretty sizable hole in your wallet but at the very least, you’re guaranteed a satisfying gaming experience within the realms of QHD and Full HD resolutions. 4K gaming is possible, yes, but you’re obviously going to have the drop some graphics settings down a notch or two, so some expectation management is required here.
That pristine white sheen also makes it a look but like all white products, you’ll have to take into consideration the “yellowing” that will set in over time. On that note, you can also opt for the standard black edition of the card that looks just as good and costs a couple hundred Ringgit less.
