GeForce RTX 3090 vs GeForce RTX 5070 Ti benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 3090 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti has a significantly 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. In addition, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 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 5070 Ti has a slightly lower TDP at 300 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3090 at 350 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is faster than the GeForce RTX 3090.
