Hey everyone! I'm in the market for a graphics card and have a budget of €700. I'm particularly interested in 1440p gaming performance. The RTX 5070, specifically the Ventus 2X model, has caught my attention, but I hardly see it in any benchmarks or comparisons. Is it a solid choice, or should I be looking at other options? Also, if I want to stick with DDR4 RAM, what CPU should I consider?

The RTX 5070 is a solid GPU for 1440p gaming, but the Ventus 2X model is a bit of a budget option when it comes to cooling, compared to the three-fan versions. That said, it still performs well! For the CPU side, if you're wanting to stick to DDR4, I'd recommend considering a 12th or 14th Gen Intel processor.
You might want to check out the RX 9070xt! It definitely outperforms the RTX 5070 in most scenarios and can give you a performance closer to that of the 5070ti.

My case is pretty small, and those three-fan setups might not fit!
