This is a EVGA RTX 2070 Super Blower card with modded BIOS, on which I have installed an Arctic Accelero Extreme IV aftermarket cooler. Please thoroughly read this listing before buying because there are some limitations imposed by its significant size on case and CPU cooler compatibility.

Update: I found spare parts I forgot I bought for this cooler. I have a brand new fan assembly for the cooler I will include with the GPU. It is easy to swap the fans as an assembly. The plastic shroud holds the fans and the shroud has clips which allow it to easily snap onto the fin assembly. While I believe the fans have a lot of life left, fan longevity is certainly a question with a GPU that has done some mining.

I bought this GPU in February 2021 from a gamer who had purchased it new in late 2019. I upgraded the cooling and then used it to mine Ethereum for about 18 months. Always undervolted and running cool in a climate controlled environment.

For the past year and a half, this has been my primary gaming GPU and it has performed flawlessly. It overclocks very well and tests within the top 2% on Time Spy. I was able to get the #3 score in Speed Way when testing overclock settings (see pics). Note that these rankings are based on combining the GPU with a Ryzen 5600X, though Speed Way scores don’t depend much on the CPU and I was still able to hit #28 on the rankings for any CPU with this GPU.

Several well tested and stable OC settings will be included with the GPU. Please note that not all OC settings will be stable with all games and you may have to use a lower setting with one game than you do another. Benchmark results are shown in pics for Speed Way and Time Spy for both the highest stable OC and stock. Please note that some of the higher results in the rankings are produced by higher OC settings that are not suitable for gaming at all.

Between the vastly improved cooling and flashing the BIOS from one of EVGA’s high performance, OC gaming cards (I tried them all but don’t recall exactly which one ended up working best), this is literally one of the best examples of the 2070 Super in the world. GPU runs on standard Nvidia drivers.

This GPU runs anything. Even Slowfield and AW2. It handles 1440p well and is a beast in e-sports. It also looks impressive in the case. It performs similarly to a 4060. Frame generation may sound good but it increases VRAM utilization and latency.

Important note is that this GPU has rear heatsink that extends 1” above the normal GPU height and limits your cooler selection. Will take any 92mm cooler and some smaller 120mm coolers. I checked clearance on a Thermalright Assassin X 120 R SE and this GPU would just fit with a couple millimeters of breathing room.

GPU would be challenging but possible to fully disassemble. I have added heatsinks to the power delivery components and affixed the backplate heatsink with thermally conductive RTV. Keeps GPU temps in the low 50s C while pulling 250W or more with a massive overclock. Quietest air cooled GPU I have ever seen. I used long life thermal paste; top quality thermal pads; should be good until 2030 before thermal performance starts to degrade. Even then, you can pull the main heatsink and change GPU thermal paste and memory thermal pads without having to deal with the RTV.

Fitment: The backplate is an inch higher than ATX spec. The GPU is 11 3/16” long from the backplate and it stands 5.25” off the motherboard. It is arguably a 4.5 slot GPU. On an ATX board, you can use the lowest PCIe x1 slot but that’s it. On the upside, all but the chunkiest NVMe heatsink fit. It will work in a mATX build but it needs one of the larger mATX cases. Having built in the Q300L, I believe this GPU will fit in that case. The aftermarket cooler includes a support brace which works very well to keep this GPU supported and level. It would work even better in a vertical GPU mount, where it would show off the 'Xtreme' nature of the cooler.
