Live benchmark data
In verified runs saved here, RTX 5070 averages 99% higher FPS. Averages mix every resolution and settings level owners actually ran, so treat this as a directional signal, not a lab result.
Verdict — RTX 5070
Competent card that would have been great with 16 GB. As-is, expect to lower texture settings within 2–3 years to avoid stutter. Consider the 5070 Ti if budget allows.
Verdict — RTX 4070
One of the most efficient cards ever made — sips power, runs cool. VRAM is the weak point but adequate for most 1440p use. Used market often prices it well against a new 5060 Ti.
