GeForce RTX 4070 vs RTX A4500 comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4070 beats the RTX A4500 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4070 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 4070 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 RTX A4500 has a significantly lower TDP at 200 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 at 300 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 4070 is better than the RTX A4500.
