Many thanks to Asus for sponsoring this video. Check out the Asus ROG Strix Pulsar XG27AQNGV for the latest in 1440p display technology with state-of-the-art motion clarity: https://uk.rog.gg/Pulsar Nvidia's 70-class hardware from 2018's RTX 2070 through to the latest RTX 5070 is re-examined in a tech evolution piece looking at the transformation of 1440p gaming over the last eight years. Yes, we have benchmark performance numbers, but the real story is in how optimised settings and ML-based technologies deliver the smoothest experiences for today's high refresh rate displays - and how 70-class hardware is still capable of delivering top-end rendering technologies, like path tracing. If you're on an older 70-class card and are thinking of an upgrade, here's how the landscape looks on some of the most recent and popular games. Note: RTX 5070 was released in 2025, not 2024 as stated in the video. 00:00 Introduction 00:31 Asus TUF Gaming 70-Class GPUs Tested 01:47 1440p Gaming + Displays Are Evolving 02:20 Basic Benchmarking: RTX 2070 to 5070 04:31 Custom Testing: Assassin's Creed Shadows 07:56 Custom Testing: Battlefield 6 09:41 Custom Testing: Expedition 33 Clair Obscur 11:50 Custom Testing: Doom The Dark Ages Path Tracing 14:27 Custom Testing: Cyberpunk 2077 Path Tracing 17:24 Nvidia Reflex Doesn't Get The Credit It Deserves 20:56 RTX 2070 vs 3070 vs 4070 vs 5070 - Final Thoughts 22:13 RTX 2070 - Thoughts Today vs 2018 Review 24:14 And Now...
