GeForce RTX 5070 vs GeForce RTX 4070 Super: specs comparison

GeForce RTX 5070 came out in 2025 on the Blackwell architecture, GeForce RTX 4070 Super in 2024 on Ada Lovelace. GeForce RTX 5070 has 12 GB of GDDR7 on a 192-bit bus (672 GB/s), GeForce RTX 4070 Super has 12 GB of GDDR6X on a 192-bit bus (504 GB/s). Power draw: 250 W vs 220 W. Recommended PSU for both: 650 W.

In short. The table below is built from the official spec sheets. Green marks the best value in a row, and under the table you will see which resolutions the VRAM is enough for. This is not an FPS benchmark.

Which is better for 1080p, 1440p and 4K

  • 1080pEnough VRAM on both: GeForce RTX 5070, GeForce RTX 4070 Super. Higher memory bandwidth: GeForce RTX 5070 (672 GB/s)
  • 1440pEnough VRAM on both: GeForce RTX 5070, GeForce RTX 4070 Super. Higher memory bandwidth: GeForce RTX 5070 (672 GB/s)
  • 4KBoth cards have less than 16 GB of VRAM — expect medium settings in new games.

Based on actual specs: 8 GB of VRAM or more for 1080p, 12 GB for 1440p and 16 GB for 4K at high settings in new games. This is not an FPS benchmark: we don’t show scores we can’t back with a source.

How to use it

  1. Compare VRAM and memory bandwidth — they matter most at high resolutions.
  2. Check TDP, connectors and the recommended PSU: will your power supply cope.
  3. Look at the “Which is better for 1080p, 1440p and 4K” block.
  4. To add a third card, press “Change models or add a third”.
