About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Great price for a Palit RTX 3090 (somewhere between the 4070 TI and 4080 in performance, but with 24GB VRAM so you won't hit 4K texture limits like on the 4070 TI in games like TLOU & newer games

sorted bySo the card is ONLY of interest for the 24GB of VRAM, which would matter to a vanishing few people. Of course the card is USED, which should drop the value by 50%+, at which point the card should be far below 500 quid (the original retail price can be IGNORED since it reflected crypto mining demand, not the real value of the card at the time, which was well below 1000 quid).
In other words, just another Ngreedia rip-off for the hard-of-thinking.
Any folks doing anything 3D modelling related, video editing, AI ... Anything non gaming basically ... The 24GB VRAM is super valuable.
WHY? Because all these and more cause the fake frames to have garbage image quality. Instead, Ngreedia instructs devs to massively dumb down rendering methods, so that DLSS2/3 will produce 'best' results. fake frames require static or slow moving elements in predictable directions at constant velocities. This is how the rotten maths work (technically called predictable optical flow).
Plus new with warranty.
Caution: this is apparently the same or very similar cooler Palit used on their similar model 3080. Reviews (I think I read one from Guru3D) warned that it had difficulty with the heat the 3090 put out and fans would often ramp. Also yeah it can guzzle down the Watts.
But a lot of perf for the price. (edited)
Undervolting the GPU can lead to the following benefits12:
- Improved efficiency
- Potential performance gains
- Cooling benefits
- Increased overclocking potential
- No immediate risk of damage
Lower voltage will mean that the GPU fans can spin at lower RPMs with the accompanying reduced heat. This also means less power is needed to for the fans, keeping your entire system performing at a lower noise level2.Always a WinWin for the user.
The 4070ti with only 12GB VRAM is a joke at this price range though. It is not going to age well at all, especially now that the PS4/Xbox1 era of console are being left behind.
Haven't encountered any issues with VRAM using a 4070 ti on TLOU. In fact, ran like an absolute dream with the 1.1 update.
Good price on this though
*after several months once the game was properly patched
3090 and 4090 are "DAY ONE" cards. Everything else is loaded with problems
Idle 15w
Multi-monitor 28w
Gaming average 356w
Probably around 120w locked at 60Hz
Are you using it for gaming?
...and the Ti version has the RAM on only one side & better cooling/specs.?
I've seen the Ti version going for similar prices on eBay (~£700)...
Shirly that would be a better deal.
I play at 1440p 240hz, I would have liked 16GB of vram absolutely, but I don’t need more than 12GB honestly. I’d rather have the 4 year warranty I got with the 4070Ti, slightly better performance, access to dlss 3 and frame gen. Honestly the warranty alone would make me weary of spending £700 ish on a used GPU, I’d be inclined to assume a GPU as power hungry as a 3090 tends to die at slightly higher rates than a lower TGP card.

For gaming though I'd go with the 40xx series because you get the next-gen features like DLSS 3 and frame generation which give much better frame rates whilst also using less energy.
