Description

The Coolest & Quietest Graphics Card in Its Class

ASUS and Noctua engineers teamed up to pair two iconic NF-A12x25 PWM fans with a tailor-made thermal solution that rides on a custom PCB. This potent pairing allows the ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 Noctua Edition to operate at lower GPU temperatures and produce less noise than any air-cooled graphics card in its class.

Cool and Quiet

From shroud to heatsink, every aspect of the cooler is optimized to set new standards for thermals and acoustics.

Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM Fans
The two Noctua NF-A12x25 120mm fans integrate a low-resonance Sterrox® liquid-crystal polymer (LCP) fan impeller, metal-reinforced motor hub, stabilized bearings, and custom low-noise PWM controller to deliver performance you can rely on day in, day out.

Tailor-made Heatsink

ASUS and Noctua engineers ran extensive simulations to optimize heatpipe placement and fin density to take full advantage of the air propelled by both Noctua NF-A12x25 fans.

Card Enhancements

Additional upgrades first championed on ROG Strix and TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 30-series graphics cards allow the ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 Noctua Edition to deliver performance and durability at every level.

0dB Technology: An advanced controller brings fans to a standstill when the GPU temp is below 50 Celsius, letting you enjoy light gaming in relative silence. As temps rise, the fans automatically start up again.
Auto-Extreme Technology: Auto-Extreme is an automated manufacturing process that reduces component strain and avoids the use of harsh cleaning chemicals, resulting in less environmental impact and a more reliable product.
Dual BIOS: Choose between two cooling profiles, with an onboard switch. The default Q mode activates a more gentle fan curve to reduce noise, and P mode prioritizes ultra-low temperatures.
Armored Underside: The rear of the card is protected by a sturdy metal backplate featuring a wide vent to direct hot air towards chassis exhaust fans. The I/O bracket is forged from stainless steel for a secure mount.
