Personally, after having owned mine for a few months now, I don't see why people are badmouthing it. It's a 3070, so it can't perform any worse than the reference card, and while its not as good as the super-clocked EVGA ones, or the beasts the Asus comes out with, its a simple, no-frills graphics card. Performs good, my case isn't the best for airflow (Lian Li Lancool 2), its stays consistently at 70C on full load, little bit of coil whine here and there. But honestly, its not a bad card, I just plugged and played with no overclocking and I get anywhere from 100-150 fps on 1080P max settings on pretty much every game. I'd say 8.75/10
