Today Amazon is offering a ZOTAC GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12GB AMP AIRO GPU for only $673.20. This is the least expensive RTX 4070 GPU on Amazon right now, with the next best price going for over $50 more. This particular model is a limited edition Spider-Man: Across the Spider Verse collab with themed backplate, tote bag, and more. Even with the release of the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER refresh, the RTX 4070 Ti is still an outstanding card for up to 4K gaming. At this price, it’s a much better value too.
ZOTAC GeForce RTX 4070 Ti GPU for $673.20
If you wanted to stick with an NVIDIA card, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is the least expensive GPU we’d recommend for 4K gaming. This is an ideal choice for playing games at 1080p or 1440p at very high framerates, or 4K gaming at 60fps or more. It’s a significant upgrade in performance compared to the RTX 4070 and 3080: about 25% improvement in 4K, 20% in 1440p, and 15% in 1080p. It’s also considerably more powerful than the RTX 4070 SUPER, which I think is slightly underpowered for 4K gaming.
On the AMD front, at this price the RTX 4070 Ti is even less expensive than the RX 7900 XT ($690 on Amazon). A big advantage that the RTX 4070 Ti holds over any of the AMD cards is its support for DLSS 3.0, which offers a rather significant boost in frame rate for games that support as well as superior ray tracing performance. Ray tracing isn’t really a viable option for lower end cards, but the RTX 4070 Ti has enough horsepower that you could run ray tracing while still maintaining good framerates.
This ZOTAC “AMP AIRO” variant features a rugged triple fan active cooling with an eye-catching magnetic Spider-Man: Across the Spider Verse backplate. The metal backplate itself features a passthrough design that allows one of the fans to flow through for ambient air movement. As a side effect, it also helps to cool some of your motherboard components. The ports on this particular GPU are 3x DisplayPort and 1x HDMI 2.1. This model is also slightly overclocked out of the box.
