Summary
Thick, heavy, cool, quiet and fast. Two years ago, I wouldn’t have thought that I would write something like this about a Palit card. They were always good and also inexpensive, but for the sum of all attibute it was not quite enough. But now. Only that with the price you have to practice more intensively, because it is now also plentiful premium. But in the end you can also buy a short-haired game skirt without the PE extensions and flash the card yourself. Because a dual BIOS is something like a free life insurance.
The board is suitably equipped and the cooler is solidly constructed. The large cooling pads and many thermal pads avoid any hotspots, which can be very well liked. The cooler is quite heavy, but thanks to its multi-point attachment it is also sufficiently well fixed and stable. The baking plate cools and stabilizes in a common wash cycle, well so. In addition, there are the soft-washed propellers, which you don’t even hear. Well, so almost not. Quiet is the part yes, you really have to leave that to Palit.
The optics fit, the performance anyway. Seen in this way, this card is a very good alternative to Nvidia’s Founders Edition and more than just any factory-overclocked card. It’s a really solid product that does exactly what you paid for. And unfortunately not very little I quickly summarize what I wrote in detail on the last pages, because the reader always needs a little reminder.
And for the typical first-last-page readers, I would even have the hidden hint that it is well worth reading the rest in between. It’s more interesting than you might think 😉

| Very good and quiet cooler Ordinary components installed Good board layout Clean processing Moderate RGB lighting |
Too expensive Light low-frequency vibrations of the fans |
Conclusion
With the slightly more than 580 Euro road price, Palit has second-country self-confidence, which is also justified in view of the technical implementation. Whether this also applies to the price, everyone has to deal with themselves. The cooler cools as if there is no tomorrow, the memory has reserves without end and very quiet is the whole cart on top of that. So you could only complain about weight and price
And so, at the end of the day, the question remains whether you really need such a noble 2070s, or whether you better sneak in the cheapest GeForce RTX 2080, which is then not so much more expensive. But our customers cannot take this decision away from us. Lushly equipped C-Class against splintered E-Class in the basic package without an additional cost list. It’s a matter of taste, as always.
