JUST BUILD IT
Guy Cocker
HANDS DOWN, no question, the RTX 4070 Super is the pick of Nvidia’s updated GPU range. It’s 15 to 20 percent quicker than the OG 4070 for exactly the same money. Yes, yes, the vanilla RTX 4070 has had a $50 haircut, and now has an MSRP of $549 to the RTX 4070 Super’s $599, but that price gap is less than 10 percent. Do the math, or just read Zak’s review on page 74.
While we’re talking 4070 Supers, you won’t be surprised that our former head honcho, Zak, has slotted one into the heart of this month’s sleek and sinister build, starting on page 16. To match the moody all-black attire of the 4070 Super Founder’s Edition card, Zak has gone for a minimalist and monolithic stealth vibe, courtesy of the Hyte Y40 mid tower case, plus Noctua Chromax Black fans and CPU cooler to suit.
