GeForce RTX 4070 vs GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER benchmarks

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

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4070 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 SUPER 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 4070 SUPER has a slightly lower TDP at 220 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 at 300 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is faster than the GeForce RTX 4070.
