Hello,
Is the RTX 3070 good for 1440p gaming?
If good is defined as 1440p 60hz on a high level of graphical quality on all games, then yes it will do that. Some games like Cyberpunk with ray tracing will push a 3070 to it's limit even at 60hz but it will do it with some tweaks. For 144hz, you might have to play on medium depending on the game.Hello,

I have yet to find a game I needed to play at medium. Pro tip, 100-120Hz is just fine in most cases and where it isn't, the hardware demand is usually lower anyways.If good is defined as 1440p 60hz on a high level of graphical quality on all games, then yes it will do that.

I was only thinking if the OP was playing at very high refresh rates on a graphically demanding game. Assassin's Creed Valhalla at 1440p 144hz is going to be pretty intense, but I don't really understand the value in playing those sorts of games at high frame rates anyway. I still play them at 60hz despite having a 165hz monitor.I have yet to find a game I needed to play at medium.

I guess I misunderstood you there, then. Apologies. ACV is exactly the kind of game I'm talking about - you likely won't see 144+ FPS, but 100-120, sometimes 60, instead. But you won't likely see or feel a great difference anyways, it's simply not that type of game. So always wanting 144 FPS because you got a 144Hz monitor is... eh. In games where you would need that, like shooters, you will most likely have them anyways. But not all games need that.I was only thinking if the OP was playing at very high refresh rates on a graphically demanding game.

That's ok, I do find some of the tech reviewer advice frustrating sometimes, some will assume all games must run at 144hz or higher. You can quickly get into unnecessary hardware recommendations.I guess I misunderstood you there, then. Apologies.
