Hardware Profile
Overview
The GeForce RTX 2070 is NVIDIA's upper-mid-range card from the Turing generation, launched in October 2018. It succeeded the GTX 1070 from the Pascal lineup, stepping up to the new RTX branding that distinguished cards with dedicated ray-tracing hardware.
Built on the Turing architecture, the RTX 2070 carries 8GB of GDDR6 memory alongside 1st-generation RT cores and Tensor cores. These additions enabled hardware-accelerated ray tracing and the first iteration of DLSS — though DLSS 1 had limited game support and was less refined than later versions. Rasterization performance was a meaningful leap over the GTX 1070.
The RTX 2070 targets 1440p gaming and can handle 4K at reduced settings in less demanding titles. It suits gamers who want a capable high-resolution card with ray-tracing capability, and those transitioning from older Pascal or Maxwell hardware looking for a significant performance uplift.
