GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel)

2016

Why buy it

  • Competitive enough if your priority is price, power, or specific feature preference.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Radeon Pro W5700X across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 8 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Poor future-proofing: 2016-era hardware with 8 GB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 17.6 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $999 MSRP).
  • 17.1% higher power demand at 240W vs 205W.

Radeon Pro W5700X

2019

Why buy it

  • 45.3% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 17.6 vs 0 G3D/$ ($999 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (16 GB vs 8 GB).
  • More future proof: RDNA 1.0 on 7nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon Pro W5700X better than GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel)?
Yes. Radeon Pro W5700X is clearly the better overall GPU here. Radeon Pro W5700X averages 45.3% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 17,591 vs 17,790 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon Pro W5700X is a 2019 card with FSR upscaling, while GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel) is a 2016 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
Radeon Pro W5700X is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2019 generation instead of 2016, more VRAM at 16 GB instead of 8 GB, better upscaling support with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, and a 7nm process instead of 16nm. That extra memory headroom makes it the safer pick for newer games, heavier textures, and higher settings over time.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
Radeon Pro W5700X is the smarter buy today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. Radeon Pro W5700X is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $999 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 45.3% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and a lower G3D Mark (17,591 vs 17,790). It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 100+%. That is why the better overall card still comes out as the smarter buy today, not just the faster one.
Is GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel) still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
Yes. GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel) is still a strong modern gaming GPU: it is very strong for 1080p, good for 1440p, and more limited at 4K. It remains a good buy when you can get it meaningfully cheaper than the alternative around an unclear MSRP, even if Radeon Pro W5700X is still the cleaner recommendation on overall value today.
