Here we test five games, all at 2560×1440 resolution using maximum image quality settings.

We don't focus heavily on gaming performance in these AIB card reviews, for the simple reason that factory overclocks don't make that much difference. Despite a theoretical clock speed advantage of 90MHz, real-world gaming performance is only 2-3% ahead of the Nvidia Founders Edition across the 5 games we tested. That does put the Aero OC even closer to the 4070 Ti, but the differences are very small compared to the Founders Edition. If you do want to see how the 4070 Super performs in a much wider array of games, check out our day 1 review.
