GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q vs GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q in gaming.

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. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q has a slightly lower TDP at 90 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop at 115 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop is faster than the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q.
