NVIDIA’s RTX 3000 series has seen many custom graphic cards with liquid AIO cooling, with most of them being for the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080. But now, Colorful has released an RTX 3070 card with AIO Liquid cooling, making it the first and currently, only RTX 3070 graphic card to feature such a cooling design.
Colorful had already implemented the AIO on the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 with the Neptune model, but are now adding an AIO liquid cooler to the GeForce RTX 3070. Colorful has added a water-cooled GeForce RTX 3070 to its lineup to fill a niche void in the market.
The Colorful RTX 3070 graphics card is part of their Neptune series. The cooling solution is an all in one liquid cooler that is attached to a 240mm dual-fan radiator. The GA104 based GeForce RTX 3070 card will feature 14+4 power stages on the PCB which differs from the 14+8+4 power stages on the GA102 PCB used for the RTX 3080 and 3090. The new model features a max TDP of 270W which is 100W less than the TDP of 370W GA102 models. The cooler had to be slightly adjusted to fit the new PCB.
Because of adequate cooling, the Colorful RTX 3070 Neptune card will come factory overclocked. And that overclock is also unique in nature. The Colorful Neptune RTX 3070 runs at a default boost clock speed of 1725 MHz but can quickly change with the press of a button. The button is located I/O bracket and it loads a secondary BIOS with an 1845 MHz boost when pressed. That is a 7% increase in performance with the click of a button.
The Colorful GeForce RTX 3070 Neptune has been officially listed on the company’s website but so far, there is no word on the pricing and availability of the card.
