That’s not to say there is nothing to commend this card.
Was it what enthusiasts wanted?
You just can’t claim that for the RTX 5070.
But the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 could have and should have been so much better than it ultimately is.
It seems like every decision was made to keep things right where they are rather than move things forward.
They may change over time as more card results are added and cards are retested.
The ‘average of all cards tested’ includes cards not shown in these charts for readability purposes.
Boy howdy, here we go.
Again, a win is a win, but it’s much closer than it should be gen-on-gen.
It’s with gaming, though, where the real heartbreak comes with this card.
OK, but what about the RTX 4090?
Can the RTX 5070 with DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation match the native 4K performance of the RTX 4090?
Yes, it can, at least if you’re only concerned with average FPS.
For most games, this isn’t going to be a deal breaker.
You’re going to feel it.
So where does that leave the RTX 5070?
It’s not what we were promised, not by a long shot.
Should you buy the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070?
Also, hey stop making 12GB RTX 4070s.
Memory isn’t that expensive.
Those that do, it works great, but it’s not nearly enough.
