Buying call

Buy an RTX 3070 card used if you want solid 1080p and 1440p gaming for less: reviewers praised its performance, ray tracing and smaller size than the RTX 3080, and called it great value at launch. Skip it for new demanding games, because 8GB of memory is limiting now. It also lacks DLSS frame generation, and it's discontinued.
