Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER better than Radeon AI PRO R9700?

Yes. GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the better GPU overall here. You are getting 13.4% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data, 4.8% higher PassMark G3D performance, and DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. It also comes from 2024 instead of 2025, which helps its case as the more complete modern gaming card.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting better frame-generation support with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023) instead of FSR upscaling. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the smarter buy today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is about $700 cheaper on MSRP at $599 MSRP versus $1,299 MSRP, and you are getting 13.4% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 4.8% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 127.2%. Radeon AI PRO R9700 is the newer 2025 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.

When does Radeon AI PRO R9700 make more sense than GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER?

Yes. Radeon AI PRO R9700 is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is excellent for 1080p and 1440p maxed-out gaming, and still very capable for 4K in many titles. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture and staying closer to $1,299 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER. The trade-off is that GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER currently gives you 4.8% higher G3D Mark and 13.4% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 127.2%.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

A critical advantage for the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. This allows it to generate entire frames using AI/Algorithms, essentially doubling the frame rate in CPU-bound scenarios or heavy ray-tracing titles. The Radeon AI PRO R9700 lacks specific hardware/driver support for this native frame generation tier.The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER gives access to NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), widely regarding as the superior upscaling method for image quality. The Radeon AI PRO R9700 relies on FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution), which is capable but generally slightly noisier than DLSS in motion.
