DOTA 2
In contention for the most popular game on Steam and the biggest competition in eSports: DOTA 2 is powered by the Source 2 engine. The game is fairly light on low to medium settings but maxed out, with heavy action on screen especially during clashes, can really stress most systems. This is a game where frame times matter as responsiveness is very important in high-stakes competition. We’re looking at consistently low frametimes in this game for the best experience.
You can watch the replay of the actual game used in the benchmark in your Dota2 client. Search for this game: 7583012200. Nothing special in this particular match but the clash is a good enough test. You can download it for your own reference. (save it to your DOTA2 replays folder)

I often wonder if Asus really deserves their huge price premium versus the likes of Inno3D, Zotac and Palit
Tough question. Some people really buy into the brand and feel good owning one. I’m a Zotac guy but only because I prefer their warranty for reference cards versus Palit.
Miguel Araneta similar sentiments. Just add Php 10K+ and you can already get the RTX 4090.
John Francis Gamao yup. Even for their cheaper cards, I think the ROG and TUF 4070 Supers are not that far from the price of Palit and Inno3D 4070 Ti Supers (around 5-6K difference).
Miguel Araneta the TUF non OC model is good to buy if someone really likes Asus brand. It’s close to PH’s SRP but I’ll avoid the OC version of it. OC version price is an additional 8-9K for a measly 1-3 FPS difference.
