GeForce GT 1030 vs GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce GT 1030 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop has a slightly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce GT 1030 has a significantly lower TDP at 30 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop at 115 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop is faster than the GeForce GT 1030.
