ASUS Gives GeForce RTX 3070 the Turbo Lateral Blower Treatment | TechPowerUp
 
ASUS today rolled out the GeForce RTX 3070 Turbo graphics card. Given that the company built lateral-airflow coolers for even the 350 W RTX 3090, such a card based on the RTX 3070 should come as little surprise. ASUS designs these cards for cases with airflow restrictions. The card is strictly 2 slots thick and full-height. It uses a lateral blower-type cooling solution that uses a vapor-chamber plate and a copper channel-type heatsink; and a lateral fan that uses double-ball bearing. The card draws power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors located along the tail end, rather than on the top. The card sticks to NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of up to 1725 MHz GPU Boost, and 14 Gbps (GDDR6-effective) memory; although a software-activated "OC Mode" can run it up to 1755 MHz. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4a, and one HDMI 2.1 connectors. The company didn't reveal pricing or availability information.
 
For those who prefer a blower style RTX 3070 then this might be for you.

    Very nice, except putting the power ports at the tail end is going to preclude them from fitting in some of the mini-ITX cases this card would otherwise be ideal for.

    If EVGA put out a blower style 3070 I'll very likely get one for my wife's mini-ITX build... although if it has the power ports coming out the butt of the card, that might be an issue, depending on card length... here's a pic of a 980 Ti SC in it. It now has a 2070 Super. Gonna be tight with butt plugs in there (lol, and that statement actually makes sense in this context).
