Palit introduces the GeForce RTX 4070 Dual, a graphics card that utilizes the Ada Lovelace architecture from the NVIDIA RTX 4000 Series. Despite its more minimalist size, this graphics card still offers impressive performance and is suitable for gamers who need space efficiency.
Weighing only 748 grams, the RTX 4070 Dual is about 250 grams lighter than the Founder’s Edition variant. Its length of 26.9 cm and height of 11.5 cm keeps it compact without sacrificing performance. No 12VHPWR adapter is needed, making installation easier.
Design and Features
The design of the RTX 4070 Dual is simple, with a cover and slot bezel that match the concept and price. The backplate uses plastic material, which means it doesn’t help much with heat circulation. However, the Palit and GeForce RTX logos, as well as the RGB LED strip, which can be adjusted via the ThunderMaster application, add aesthetic value.
Palit uses 4 x 6mm heatpipes for cooling, with the GPU and VRAM connected to an integrated base plate. Separate heatsink fins are used to connect the MOSFET VRM. This graphics card occupies two slot spaces and operates with a single 8-pin power connector. Four visual ports are available: three DisplayPort 1.4a and one HDMI 2.1a, and it supports PCIe Gen4.
