ROG Strix GeForce RTX 5070 Ti OC Ed. Review: Top of Asus’s Lineup

The ROG Strix GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB OC Edition targets enthusiasts of premium products. It impresses with its refined design, significantly oversized cooling, and ARGB lighting that stands out in a glass case. Extras include headers for system fans and a fifth display output. It offers a Q mode for quiet cooling fans and gives tuners ample headroom for boosting performance and and fine-tune acoustics.

Cyberpunk 2077, RT Medium, 3840 × 2160 (Q mode)

The next set of measurements is also from the Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark with RT Medium settings at 3840 × 2160 resolution. This consists of eight consecutive benchmark runs. The graph always shows the last run, from which the average value for the warmed-up card is calculated.

In the quiet mode, the card is only marginally slower.

The clock speed of the warmed-up GPU ranges between 2805 and 2827 MHz with an average of 2820 MHz, so the clock speed drop due to higher temperatures is negligible.

The power limit is 20 W lower with the quiet BIOS, but the average card power draw according to monitoring only dropped from 283 W to 281.8 W, and a similar difference is seen in the total PC power consumption.

The average system power draw under load was 418.8 W.

The GPU and memory temperatures are only slightly higher, with the GPU reaching a maximum of 70.3 °C and the memory 72 °C.

Fan speeds dropped to around 900 RPM during pauses between tests, increasing slightly with each successive test loop as the card warmed up, reaching around 1280 RPM towards the end.

The limit indicators graph shows a significant reduction in the brown bars signaling the voltage limit for long-term load; the card is now limited more by power.
