When slightly undervolted or when lowering the TDP (wattage used) manually, this is an almost silent card and has plenty of VRAM along with the ability to drive my 3 screens here (and possibly 4 or 5 as there's 5 ports on the back). Even at stock it really isn't loud and barely broke 75~77c on 3Dmark.
Two HDMI and three display ports on the back, and a nice back-plate so hopefully the RAM on the back of the card doesn't get too hot. Solid enough not to sag notably, if properly mounted to a SOLID case.
DUAL 8-PIN PCI-E CONNECTORS, NOT 12-PIN high-power (new) connector. Great for upgrading.
While these cost 'too much' new, getting them now that the 4090 is out and clearly superior (especially in ray tracing) can get you a good deal with plenty of specs to not get outdated in less than two or three years.
Sure, you can buy a much faster 4090 with much improved ray tracing performance, but if that doesn't matter as much as getting a good deal (most of us!), this has just as much VRAM and enough grunt to drive multiple high-res screens without a hitch.
Just make sure you have a well-ventilated case and have enough power resources / wattage/amps available for the card to use. Use two different pci-e cables if possible (one plug from each) for best load distribution / best amperage supply available. Consider having AT LEAST 32gb system RAM minimum.
Used market has great deals compared to new card prices and 4090 / 3090 Ti prices. For the price of a new 4070 12gb at MSRP you can get a faster card with twice the VRAM, which will last much longer before being obsolete. 12gb and 8gb of VRAM is already not enough, there's also a select few games that use more than 16gb (!) of VRAM but thankfully they're very few and far between currently.
