GeForce RTX 2070 vs GeForce RTX 5070 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 5070 beats the GeForce RTX 2070 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 5070 has a significantly 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 5070 also has a significantly 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 2070 has a much lower TDP at 175 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 5070 at 250 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 5070 over the GeForce RTX 2070.
