ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 4070 Super OC Edition 12GB GDDR6X Graphics Card

Pros

• ↑ DLSS 3 Frame Generation keeps estimated frame rates above 60fps during dense EGLL approaches with 100% AI traffic at 1440p Ultra — a threshold most mid-range alternatives at this price tier can't hold without dropping render scaling.
• ↑ 12GB GDDR6X handles MSFS 2024's aggressive terrain streaming and live weather texture loads without VRAM-induced stutters during VFR cross-country legs over photogrammetry regions — most competing cards at this tier ship with 8GB or slower GDDR6.
• ↑ The value score of 141.3 per $1000 spent makes this one of the stronger efficiency arguments for pilots upgrading from a GTX 10-series or RTX 20-series card who want meaningful gains across VFR, IFR, and online multiplayer sessions without stepping into flagship pricing.

Cons

• ↓ Estimated 4K Ultra performance sits around 40–48fps, meaning photogrammetry city overflights — Tokyo, New York, or London — at native 4K will require DLSS Quality or dropping to High presets to stay out of ASW territory in any VR session.
• ↓ At the next price tier up, you gain access to cards with 16GB+ VRAM and meaningfully higher rasterisation headroom; if you're planning to move to a Reverb G2-class headset or stream MSFS simultaneously, this card's ceiling becomes a real constraint sooner than the flagship tier.
