Our Verdict: Upgrading from R9 FURY X to GTX 1070 is not recommended as it is less than 30% of improvement in performance. In general, a reasonable upgrade is between 30% and 50% or more to justify the purchase of new hardware. The price/performance ratio is much better for GTX 1070 .

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070

The GTX 1080 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Pascal set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 1070 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 399. The good news is, with the release of the GTX 1070 Ti, the GTX 1070 's price is getting more discount.

NVIDIA ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Pascal graphics card inside the GTX 1070, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. Spec for spec, this GTX 1070 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 970, by boasting 50.5 % more fps.

The GTX 1070 has 8 GB RAM compared to the GTX 970 's 4 GB video memory. In our synthetic benchmarks, the GTX 1070 blows past the GTX 970 and, amazingly, even the GTX 980 as well.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 1070 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 970 and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX Vega 56, the GTX 1070 was -2.4 % slower.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Baldur's Gate 3, Armored Core VI, F1 22, Anthem, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II at 60 fps to 68 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 62 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play GreedFall, Hitman 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Death Stranding, F1 2019 at 61 fps to 67 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 64 fps.

For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Overwatch 2, Valorant at 64 fps to 134 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 99 fps.

AMD Radeon R9 FURY X

The R9 FURY X is much more expensive than the R9 390 as it costs a whopping $ 649. Compare this to the R9 390, AMD Radeon R9 390X, which came originally at a price of $ 329, $ 429. Meanwhile, the NVIDIA closest equivalent card is the GTX 980 which costs $ 549. Spec for spec, this R9 FURY X leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the R9 390, by boasting 30.9 % more fps.

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, GTX 980, the R9 FURY X was 5.8 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The R9 FURY X consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the R9 390, AMD Radeon R9 390X and it really justifies an upgrade.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Battlefield 2042, Gears of War 5, Far Cry 6, Resident Evil 4, Monster Hunter: World at 60 fps to 65 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 62 fps.

GTX 1070 vs R9 FURY X with i7-6700K vs i7-4790K at 4K and ultra vs ultra settings

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 / i7-6700K

It is clear that the GTX 1070 is a significantly more capable high-end card that can play AAA titles at 1080p/1440p with 50-60 frames per second. In terms of memory, the GTX 1070 's 8192 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. In short the performance is exceptional, there's no question that this is one of the most powerful single GPU out there in 2025 .

AMD Radeon R9 FURY X / i7-4790K

At 1440p, R9 FURY X can hit 50-60 fps on pretty much everything at ultra, just without antialiasing, less ambient occlusion and turned down shadows. It is worth noting that the R9 FURY X is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. With regards to max load temperature, the R9 FURY X 's cooling is excellent at keeping it cool and under control. Deciding whether to invest so much money in a high-end GPU like R9 FURY X requires careful thought. With current 4096 MB RAM, the R9 FURY X can have very few memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games.
