GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop vs GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop beats the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop in gaming performance.

The GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop 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. In addition, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop has a slightly lower TDP at 110 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop at 115 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop is better than the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop.
