Have you tried underclocking to reduce power usage (and thus heat production)? Seems worth trying before getting an entire new GPU... Performance per watt, I think the 4070 is one of the best cards right now, last I looked. Might be worth seeing what Intel do with battlemage, come Q2 2024.

I saw a very interesting price for an unofficial pcie rtx a2000 8gb made with leftover laptop chips, how good is that for gaming? Or it's mostly optimized for CAD design?
Power and heat-wise to performance I was pretty satisfied with 3070 but it's just a feeling and (bad) comparison because now I have 3080 and that chugs power huffs heat lol
