NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Reviews To Focus On MSRP & Premium Variants Individually, Launches 13th April
The latest embargo document for NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card has leaked out by Videocardz. The new document shows that NVIDIA will be separating the reviews into MSRP and Non-MSRP takes.
