GeForce GTX 1070 in 2023 - A $100 Bargain That Runs Everything

Mine has been a workhorse. Got a Founder's Edition back in 2016 when they first dropped (I'm so old, LOL) to complete my $1,400 build (at the time, worth much less now), and it has kicked some serious ass since then while paired with my overclocked Intel i5 6600k. Sadly like others have said, it is just now starting to show its age, but man what a wonderful GPU.

I'm rebuilding my savings but eventually I will start to slowly upgrade my rig and getting a newer GPU is first on the list (probably a RTX 4060 or 4070 if I can manage it), followed by a motherboard/CPU combo since Windows 10 will be going the way of the dodo in the next two years anyway.

Mine just caught fire a few days ago, after 7 years of use. Great card 👍



(I just bought an RX 6800 as a replacement. It's pretty much twice as good as a GTX 1070)

1660ti or 1070?
Which one’s got the better performance?
Both costs the same for me , not sure which to pick

Well it may run everything.
But it sure as hell games like shit on almost all recent titles.
It`s 7 years old, it had it`s time.

It has a far better value than todays craphics cards.

Man nvidia messed soooo much when they didnt increass their GPU memory size in 4 generations lol, wtf Nvidia how can a 1070 and a 4060 have the same memory size, bruhhh.

120$ for a 1070? Try 100$ for a 1080 ftw gigabyte, deal of the century right there.

Still playing with my 1050.
No questions allowed. 😅

Running a 1070 ftw edition for the last 6 years. Thing still runs everything fine for me but I need to upgrade. I want another card that can last me 3-4years. I play 1440p 165hz (COD, starfield when it drops, etc). I was going to get a 6700/6750 but I started looking at a 6800xt or 6950xt. Any recommendations? Everything in my PC was upgraded late last year, this is the final piece.

I bought a GTX 1070ti a looooong time ago and it still runs everything I throw at it. However, the CPU I have with it is a 6700k which is unfortunately pretty old, is the main component holding it back.

Bought another 1070ti(used) and just SLI'd it and its not really much of a game changer to be honest. I had this opinion years back and I stand by it still, despite the tech being 100% dead now.

Reason it does that is because there hasnt been released much in terms of good games since

You can get a 5700 XT for 120-140 USD which blows this thing out of the water.

who did get last firmware update?ıs it good or not?Should I upgrade new firmware?

On a 1070 atm as well, but really want to upgrade.
But not at these current prices!
Tempted to buy a 4060Ti is it's price drops though. Maybe some good "deals" come November???

Just got a 1070ti for 80$

my 1070 is in an old pc, and the cpu water cooler leaked, and actually corroded a part of the gpu. it still fucking works lol.

Pff i used hack deiver i got 55-60!in cyberpunks

only upgraded from my gtx 1070 because i got a deal on a 3070 ti oc at 300$

I cant see the difference because you uploaded the video to yt at 30fps and not 60

a friend of mine gave me his evga gtx 1070 and it now allows me to play my games smoothly

Just got a good used 1070 tifor 130 cdn. Much better than my old 1050

An incredible card. Was a revelation coming from a 670. So smooth.

How does it do on starfield?

I just bought the RX 7800xt last week, but the 1070 will always have a special place for me. The best 500€ I could have ever spent on a graphics card. Incredible how it can still run everything even 7 years later and even consume less power than most graphics cards today

please dont lower the vram you have in apex. It uses the onboard ram instead if you do that. Either pick the lowest or the vram you have.

The Pascal era of GPUs simply were amazing, I bought my 1080 back at release and been using it ever since and just now put it in the computer I had my 1070 inside, The 1070 Gaming X I have was the second highest model of the 70 Card you could buy with only the Z model higher clocked. my 1080 Extreme Gaming Edition was the highest model 1080 you could get and I even overclocked it to 2050Mhz, these cards had a certain firmware on release not all worked with and everyone was told to nerf the performance with a downgrade firmware, but my card worked perfect and even faster so I kept the faster firmware and refused to downgrade. Man I been gaming on that GPU, The 1070 was used with 4 monitors on my production PC until the 1080 took it´s place. we never gonna see such value for GPUs again

10 series was the last time Nvidia cared about customers. 1080ti is still better than some new cards now.

Is this csrd worth it on very good condition, will it last long, will it play halo infinite, cyberpunk, and dead space remake 2023 very well?

An you use 1070gtx on 1440p gameplay?

I got a brand new 1070 for 120$

My 1070 Seahawk X has been running everything since 2016 and the temperature never goes above 45 inside my 4000D case. Running Starfield with low - medium settings in 1440p (without dynamic resolution and FSR2 65/100) with 30+ frames in Atlantis and around 52 in most other places, which is more than enough for a single player game.

what would be your valuable upgrade for 1070? I think best Band for Buck now would be a 3060ti

i'm still using a 1070 (ROG strix)
and plan to continue using it for a while.

the 1070 still runs everything at 60fps or so
at some level of detail.

though i have been seeing the 4060 for pretty cheap
and have been considering upgrading.
i really only upgrade when i can get double my performance
for a reasonable price.

but can it run alan wake 2?

i have the 1070 for about 5 years and its starting to worsen now. It can barely run games such as fortnite or ranbow 6 seige on 60 fps. Any tips?

Its amazing i have it. had it for 7 years now its still running new end games at 50/60 fps which is fine imo

Should i buy a asus strix gtx 1070 8gb for 120e?

Got a gtx 1070 laptop, hp omen 17. Holy crap that thing rips. Performance is also very close to the PC card!

I had a 1070 for a minute but I got a 3060 12gb now. Very good upgrade path.

I still have the 1060 on my old pc and play a few games on it, but over the years ive noticed that it just isnt enough anymore

Is this a good one Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 G1?

Just bought a gtx 1070 today, big upgrade for me, have been running a r9 280(brothers old gpu) so definitely excited

how do you enable fsr?

I have the identical 1660 super and I can confirm it runs everything except maybe Starfield

I am still using GTS 1070ti with Intel core i3 12100 and in Apex i get 150+ fps at medium Settings

I got a 1070 ti for $98 USD and it's the best gaming experience I've ever had. Sure it can't raytrace or play the latest games like like Alan Wake 2, but I can play Cyberpunk on high quality settings with quality FSR and it looks and feels great, much better than my old GTX 1650 laptop or my GTX 960 2GB card

I still run this lol <3

No fucking way, apex rendering catalyst's Q so fucking poorly optimized.

1070 Runs everything as of august 2024, with the exception on Alan Wake 2
