ZOTAC GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Trinity
A basic entry for the 4070 Ti that will cost close to MSRP
ZOTAC still has great quality builds even for a lower price
Will fall behind in perfromance without a factory overclock
With the grand architecture there is a lot of power behind it, so what kind of temp should you be looking at

If you look to enjoy your new RTX 4070 Ti, then the cooling and size of it are of some consideration. So what temperature should the RTX 4070 Ti run at? In the TechPowerUp review we see a range of temperatures to expect from the different models. Although lacking the FE card, these custom cards still give us a look at the likely ranges.
We personally reviewed the RTX 4070 Ti and found that the ASUS TUF model we tested featured an excellent cooling solution – so let’s take a look at the ideal RTX 4070 Ti temperature. We talk average temps, optimal running temperature, and more.
Core Clock Speed
2,760 MHz OC,
CUDA cores
7,680
Memory Size
12GB GDDR6X
Dimensions
305 x 138 x 65 mm
PSU Required
750 W
TBP
285 W
So we see the GPU temperatures vary between 59°C and 71°C during gaming. With the hotspot reaching 72°C to 80°C. These also depend on the option of quiet or OC BIOS options but are still in a good spot.
Generally, graphics cards should run within safe operating limits to prevent hardware damage. The majority of graphics cards are equipped with an upper safe temperature of 95 to 100 degrees Celsius. But running your graphics card at such extreme temperatures for long durations can decrease its lifespan and harm other components of your system.
NVIDIA has developed advanced cooling solutions in its design in order to reduce the heat generated by its graphics cards. The NVIDIA RTX 40 series utilizes multiple fans, heat pipes, and vapor chambers, as well as good thermal paste, which provides better thermal conductivity than standard thermal paste.
To guarantee your graphics card runs safely and is stable, use third-party software like MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision X1. Generally speaking, keeping the graphics card’s temperature below 85 degrees Celsius helps create a safe and stable operating environment.

Like most modern GPUs, there is an upper safe temperature between 95 and 100 degrees Celsius. This should be your ‘max’ temperature for the RTX 4070 Ti. However, tests show that the card reached a high of 80°C under heavy load, putting it safely below that range.
Normal temperatures depend on a number of factors, but tests show us that the RTX 4070 Ti operates between 59°C and 71°C while gaming, meaning it will run much lower when resting.
