About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Mobile GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2022. It is built on the Ampere GPU microarchitecture (codename GA104) and is manufactured on a 8 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 3070 Ti Mobile has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 448 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 3070 Ti Mobile includes 5,888 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 915 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,410 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 184 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 96 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 184 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 46 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 115 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 3070 Ti Mobile has the 51st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 35.34% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q1 2010 with a MSRP of $349. It is built on the Fermi GPU microarchitecture (codename GF100) and is manufactured on a 40 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 470 has 1,280 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 837 MHz memory clock and a 320 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 133.9 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The GTX 470 includes 448 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 607 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 56 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 40 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GTX 470 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, mini-HDMI 1.3a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 550 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 215 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The GTX 470 has the 266th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 4.15% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 4,342 score and $349 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 12.44. This is the 94th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
