The RTX launch has certainly been interesting, offering a range of new and powerful GPUs, packed with a few new features that are sure to become standard fare over the next few years and beyond. Ray Tracing and the advanced DLSS features both seem like huge innovations. However, we’ve got the hardware, now we’re waiting for the software to take advantage of those features. I do think the value to consumers from RTX cards will improve as that happens.
However, while the RTX 2080 Ti is incredibly powerful, it’s also incredibly expensive. Furthermore, the RTX 2080 is a solid middle ground, offering all the RTX and DLSS features, but at a more affordable price. That card also brought 1080 Ti levels of performance and beyond to a non-Ti model. Now we have the RTX 2070, one of the most anticipated cards of the range, as it’s more affordable but also provides an entry-level for Ray Tracing and DLSS type features.
The latest card from MSI is the first RTX 2070 card we’ve got, so the comparison to others isn’t here just yet. However, we can, of course, compare it to other GPUs we’ve tested thus far, as well as the rest of the RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti cards we’ve tested.
