The 'iGame RTX 4070 Neptune' is a new graphics card by Colorful that features a liquid cooling system with a 240mm radiator and two fans.The card uses Nvidia’s AD104-250 GPU with 5,888 CUDA cores and 12GB of GDDR6X memory. It has a base clock of 1920 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz, which can be increased to 2640 MHz with a one-key overclocking function.
The card has a TDP of 230W, which is 30W higher than the reference model from NVIDIA, and uses a 12+4-pin power connector. It also has a custom PCB with a 14+3-phase power delivery to enhance overclocking potential.
The card is priced at $829, which is more expensive than the RTX 4070 Ti’s MSRP of $799.
The card promises to provide superior cooling performance and high overclocking headroom, but it may not be able to match the performance of the RTX 4070 Ti, which has 7,680 CUDA cores.
