Radeon RX 6700 XT vs GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop beats the Radeon RX 6700 XT in gaming performance.

The Radeon RX 6700 XT has a significantly 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 Radeon RX 6700 XT also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6700 XT at 230 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 Laptop is faster than the Radeon RX 6700 XT.
