Our Verdict: With some tuning, the RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q makes the most sense for gamers with 4K monitors and it is better than RTX 4050 Max-Q by a margin. Though serious gamers hardly play at 4k. For everyone else, especially those on 1080p or even 1440p monitors, the RTX 4050 Max-Q could be the better value choice in the short term. The RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q is faster by 44% for 1440p gaming. However, RTX 4050 Max-Q is still capable of producing more than 60 frames per second. For 1080p games, upgrading from RTX 4050 Max-Q to RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q is not worth it if targeting 60 frames per second. The price/performance ratio is much better for RTX 4050 Max-Q .

RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q vs RTX 4050 Max-Q with Core i9-10900K vs Core i9-10900K at 1440p and ultra vs ultra settings
RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q vs RTX 4050 Max-Q with Core i9-10900K vs Core i9-10900K at 4K and ultra vs ultra settings

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q / Core i9-10900K

In terms of cost, pricing clearly is a genuine issue here and the price of RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q is simply ridiculous. For those on 1080p or even 1440p monitors, the RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q is very expensive and there are better value choices in the short term. In terms of memory, the RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q 's 8192 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. 4K gaming is joyous on this RTX 3070 Ti Max-Q , and with a little tweaking to your AA settings, it'd be hard to imagine a title not capable of 60 fps on average.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Max-Q / Core i9-10900K

In terms of memory, the RTX 4050 Max-Q 's 6144 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. Deciding whether to invest so much money in a high-end GPU like RTX 4050 Max-Q requires careful thought. In short the performance is exceptional, there's no question that this is one of the most powerful single GPU out there in 2025 .
