Radeon HD 8490 vs GeForce RTX 4070 Ti comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti beats the Radeon HD 8490 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4070 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti has significantly more memory with 12 GiB of memory compared to 1 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Radeon HD 8490 has a significantly lower TDP at 35 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti at 285 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is faster than the Radeon HD 8490.
