GeForce RTX 3060 Ti vs GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 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. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti at 200 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop is better than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.
