GeForce GTX 1070 vs GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop beats the GeForce GTX 1070 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1070 has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. Despite this, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop 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 RTX 4070 Laptop has a slightly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1070 at 150 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 GTX 1070.
