About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q1 2025 with a MSRP of $749. It is built on the Blackwell 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename GB203) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 5070 Ti has 16 GB of GDDR7 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 896 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 Ti includes 8,960 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 2,295 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,452 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 280 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 96 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 280 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 70 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 5070 Ti occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1b, DisplayPort 2.1b display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 700 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 300 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 5070 Ti has the 8th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 566 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 66.12% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090. Its 85,811 score and $749 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 114.57. This is the 17th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q4 2020 with a MSRP of $499. It is built on the Ampere GPU microarchitecture (codename GA104) and is manufactured on a 8 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 3070 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 includes 5,888 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,500 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,725 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 RTX 3070 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 550 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 220 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 3070 has the 45th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 566 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 33.14% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090. Its 43,005 score and $499 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 86.18. This is the 39th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
