GeForce RTX 2070 vs GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 2070 in our tests.

The GeForce RTX 2070 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. 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 significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 2070 at 175 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 RTX 2070.
