NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q1 2025 with a MSRP of $549. It is built on the Blackwell 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename GB205) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 5070 has 12 GB of GDDR7 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 192 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 672 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 5070 includes 6,144 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 2,325 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,512 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 192 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 80 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 192 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 48 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 5070 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1b, DisplayPort 2.1b display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 600 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 250 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 5070 has the 14th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 55.21% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090. Its 71,642 score and $549 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 130.5. This is the 7th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
