About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER

2024

Why buy it

  • Costs $150 less on MSRP ($599 MSRP vs $749 MSRP).
  • Delivers 15% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 50.0 vs 43.5 G3D/$ ($599 MSRP vs $749 MSRP).
  • Draws 220W instead of 300W, a 80W reduction.
  • Measures 245mm instead of 304mm, a 59mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower PassMark G3D performance (29,958 vs 32,587).
  • Less VRAM, with 12 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Fewer Tensor Cores for AI-powered features like DLSS and frame generation (224 vs 280), which can reduce FPS gains in supported games.

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 5070 Ti better than GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER?
Yes. GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is the better GPU overall here. You are getting 8.8% higher PassMark G3D performance, 280 vs 224 Tensor cores, and 16 GB vs 12 GB of VRAM. It also comes from 2025 instead of 2024, which helps its case as the more complete modern gaming card.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2025 generation instead of 2024, 8.8% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 16 GB instead of 12 GB, and better upscaling support with DLSS 4 Super Resolution (2025) instead of DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) and better frame-generation support with DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation (2025) instead of DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023). That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is about 25.0% more expensive on MSRP at $749 MSRP versus $599 MSRP, and you are getting 8.8% higher G3D Mark. GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER still makes more sense on price alone and remains capable enough for modern gaming.
Is GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
Yes. GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is still a strong gaming GPU in 2026: it is excellent for 1080p and 1440p maxed-out gaming, and still very capable for 4K in many titles. This mostly comes down to price. If you want to stay closer to $599 MSRP, it remains a strong choice; if you are comfortable paying more, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti earns that extra money with a clearly stronger gaming result and a more complete overall package.
