Our Verdict: Upgrading from RTX 4070 to RX 7900 XT 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.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070

The RTX 4080 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Ada Lovelace set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the RTX 4070 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 599. Spec for spec, this RTX 4070 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 3070, by boasting 30.5 % more fps.

The RTX 4070 has 12 GB RAM compared to the RTX 3070 's 8 GB video memory. In our synthetic benchmarks, the RTX 4070 blows past the RTX 3070, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and, amazingly, even the RTX 3080 as well.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 4070 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 3070, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Immortals of Aveum, Microsoft Flight Simulator, The Callisto Protocol, Remnant II, The Last of Us Part I at 69 fps to 93 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 78 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Microsoft Flight Simulator, Forspoken, The Last of Us Part I, Atomic Heart, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor at 64 fps to 78 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 70 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring, A Plague Tale: Requiem, Hogwarts Legacy, Halo Infinite at 63 fps to 66 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 65 fps.

AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT

The RX 7900 XT is much more cheaper than the RX 6950 XT as it costs $ 899. Compare this to the RX 6950 XT, which came originally at a price of $ 1099. Meanwhile, the NVIDIA closest equivalent card is the RTX 4080 which costs $ 1199. Spec for spec, this RX 7900 XT leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RX 6950 XT, by boasting 10.1 % more fps.

The RX 7900 XT has 20 GB RAM compared to the RX 6950 XT 's 16 GB video memory. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RX 7900 XT consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RX 6950 XT and it really justifies an upgrade.

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, RTX 4080, the RX 7900 XT was -5.3 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Starfield, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Immortals of Aveum, The Callisto Protocol, Remnant II at 64 fps to 96 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 85 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Remnant II, The Callisto Protocol, Microsoft Flight Simulator, The Last of Us Part I, Forspoken at 64 fps to 81 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 74 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Borderlands 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, A Plague Tale: Requiem at 64 fps to 75 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 70 fps.
