Is the RTX4070Ti graphics card good? Performance vs. Gaming test with RTX4080 3090Ti

Mondo Digital Updated on 2024-02-19

CES 2023,NvidiaThe RTX4070Ti graphics card was released, which attracted great attention from the industry and consumers. This graphics card will be officially launched on January 5, which has detonated the graphics card market this year. The RTX4070Ti graphics card has a pretty good performance between ** and performance, which has also sparked a lot of interest. So what is the performance of the RTX4070Ti graphics card, and whether it can reach the performance level of the previous generation of flagship RTX3090Ti, the following installation home will share the RTX4070Ti graphics card evaluation, and compare the performance of RTXTI with the game test, let's take a look.

1. Comparison of graphics card parameters

The RTX4070Ti is designed with the ADA Lovelace architecture based on TSMC's 4N manufacturing process, with the core number AD104. Compared to the AD103 core on the RTX 4080, the AD104 core is smaller in scale. However, compared with the previous generation of Kahuang RTX3090Ti, the GA102 core area has shrunk from 628mm2 to 294mm2, but the integration is higher, and the number of transistors has skyrocketed to 35.8 billion. Compared to the RTX4080, the RTX4070Ti has reduced the number of SM units from 76 to 60, the number of stream processing has also decreased from 9728 to 7680, and the number of Tensor Cores and RT Cores has also decreased accordingly, from 45.9 billion to 35.8 billion transistors.

In terms of video memory, the RTX4070Ti still uses GDDR6X video memory, but the video memory capacity has dropped from 16G to 12GB, the video memory bit width is only 192-bit, and the video memory bandwidth has also increased from 7168GB s to 5042gb/s。This wide and bandwidth spec is fine for games at 2K high quality, but it may not perform as well as 2K in 4K high resolution scenarios. After all, a card like RTX4070Ti is undoubtedly positioned as a 2K game card, and if the video memory specifications are put on RTX4080, it will undoubtedly be scolded Chengxiang.

2. 3DMark performance test

3DMark's tests include TimeSpy, TimeSpy Extreme, Firestrike, and PortRoyal, which test DX12's performance at 2K resolution and 4K resolution, and DX11's performance at 1080p resolution and ray tracing performance. As can be seen from the 3DMark test, at 2K resolution, the RTX4070Ti is 1 stronger than the previous generation flagship RTX3090Ti8%。But at 4K resolution, it's 43%。This is mainly due to memory bit width and bandwidth reduction, and the performance of the two is mutually exclusive. The RTX4080 is about 28% stronger than the RTX4070Ti.

3. Game Testing

The game test was conducted at 2K and 4K resolutions. The game tested The Witcher 3, Borderlands 3, Gears of War 5, Forza Horizon 5, Far Cry 5, Cyberpunk 2077, Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Judging from the 2K resolution game test results, RTX4070Ti is all-you-can-eat games at 2K, RTX4070Ti and the previous generation flagship RTX3090Ti are considered to have won and lost each other, and it can be regarded as a tie. When it comes to 4K resolution, RTX4070TI game performance is not as good as 2K, RTX3090TI performance is significantly better than RTX4070TI, RTX4070TI is roughly equivalent to RTX3080TI in 4K environment, even so, at 4K resolution, it can also meet the vast majority of 3A game games, for large 3A games like Cyberpunk 2077, you may need to reduce some picture quality.

Fourth, the copy machine test

In the case of full occupancy of the graphics card, the temperature of the Furmark copy machine for more than ten minutes is basically stable at about 62, and the overall power consumption of the graphics card is 275W, which is 45W lower than that of the RTX4080, which means that the rated 700W power supply can meet its needs, and the 700-750W power supply is recommended.

5. Summary

The RTX4070Ti graphics card is on par with the previous generation flagship RTX3090Ti at 2K resolution, and the performance is excellent. At the same time, at 4K resolution, although the performance is not as good as the RTX3090Ti, it can still meet a large part of 3A games, which is enough for most consumers. It can be expected that this graphics card will become a hot seller in the market. The RTX4070Ti graphics card inherits the essence of graphics card innovation, greatly improves performance, and brings a new gaming experience to gaming enthusiasts. For gamers who want to elevate their gaming experience without spending too much money, this RTX4070Ti graphics card is a great choice.
