Pick up your copy of Avowed here: https://game.page/avowed/Iceberg%20Tech (Disclosure: I received a free review copy of this product from https://www.keymailer.co) Given the relatively small performance uplift from the RTX 50 series, as well as the updated DLSS upscaling and ray reconstruction being brought to older generations of GPU, the RTX 4070 is looking like it’s going to remain relevant in 2025. Unlike previous generations of 70-class cards, the 4070 features 12GB of VRAM - generally considered to be about the bare minimum for modern gaming. 2025 is already shaping up to be a demanding year on GPUs - should you be thinking of picking one of these up?
