Sorry, what do you mean with cabling headache? I got a MSI MPG A850G power supply. Also whic is better between MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Gaming X Trio and MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ventus 3X?
it has higher boost clock frequency you can also achieve this with gigabye too with msi afterburner
I made the assumption you have a pre-ATX 3.0 PSU, which lacks a 12VHPwr connector. But it looks like yours has one.
If we're talking about the boost clock frequency being advertised on the box, it doesn't matter. Cards will boost as hard as they can, often beyond that clock speed. My card is advertised to go up to 2745MHz, but it'll happily go up to 2950MHz.
yeah you can so yes there is no problem with it. you can any of them too but msi is adverising a little bit higher recomended boost frequency. it could be cause of maybe better thermal design i don't know exactly.
Do not by Gigabyte video cards until they clarify their warranty stance on the PCIe connector breaking or change their design. They have an idiotic retention design and put vital traces near it so if it should crack due to their design you're out of luck and have a dead card that so far they won't cover under warranty.
The biggest difference between those is typically the cooler quality/design and sometimes fan curve. If the 4070 pulled more power I'd say get the Gaming just to be safe, but it really doesn't so whichever is cheaper is what I'd suggest.
That advertised frequency(2475 vs 2490mhz) doesn't matter, unless something's seriously wrong; those advertised clocks are more of a worse case scenario, when all these cards overclock themselves beyond that, as hotaru.hino already posted.
