RTX 2070 benchmark with i7-980X 1080p, 1440p, Ultrawide, 4K benchmarks at Ultra Quality
With some tuning, the RTX 2070 makes the most sense for gamers with 4K monitors. Though serious gamers hardly play at 4k. In terms of memory, the RTX 2070 's 8192 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. This combination between RTX 2070 and Intel Core i7-980X @ 3.33GHz is going to cause serious bottlenecks in many games and cause severe FPS loss. In short the performance is exceptional, there's no question that this is one of the most powerful single GPU out there in 2025 .
The release year of the graphics card. The newer the better technology and performance optimization and
driver support.

The RTX 2080 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Turing 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 2070 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 499. The good news is, with the release of the RTX 2070 SUPER, the RTX 2070 '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 Turing graphics card inside the RTX 2070, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. The RTX 2070 is much more expensive than the GTX 1070 as it costs a whopping $ 499. Compare this to the GTX 1070, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti, which came originally at a price of $ 399, $ 409. Meanwhile, the AMD closest equivalent card is the RX 5700 XT which costs $ 399.
Spec for spec, this RTX 2070 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 1070, by boasting 29.1 % more fps. In our synthetic benchmarks, the RTX 2070 blows past the GTX 1070, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti and, amazingly, even the GTX 1080 as well.
Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 2070 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 1070, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 5700 XT, the RTX 2070 was -1.6 % slower.
For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Assassin's Creed Odyssey, A Plague Tale: Requiem, Dead Space, God of War, Metro Exodus at 65 fps to 67 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 66 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Battlefield 2042, Baldur's Gate 3, Armored Core VI, Anthem, Watch Dogs: Legion at 63 fps to 68 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 65 fps.
For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Fallout 76, Spider-Man Remastered, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Forza Horizon 4, Overwatch 2 at 61 fps to 81 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 67 fps.
The RTX 2070 sits between the Radeon VII and the RX 5700 XT, falling slower than Radeon VII by 0.5% and faster than RX 5700 XT by 0.9%. It has an average relative performance against every graphics card here. Its results are actually indistinguishable from those of the Radeon VII. Against its rival - the RX 5700 XT, the RTX 2070 is much slower. Compared to its higher sibling, the RTX 2070 was much slower than the RTX 2080 by more than 20%. There is a big margin in performance when comparing the RTX 2070 against the RTX 2070 SUPER.
The RTX 2070 sits between the RTX 3060 and the RX 6600 XT, falling slower than RTX 3060 by 2.4% and faster than RX 6600 XT by 3.3%. It has a strong relative performance against every graphics card here. Its results are actually indistinguishable from those of the RTX 3060. Against its rival - the RX 5700 XT, the RTX 2070 is much slower. Compared to its higher sibling, the RTX 2070 was much slower than the RTX 2080 by more than 20%.

i7 8700 rtx 2070, hitting 90 fps on GTA 5.
Very high settings, no sync.
Why does the site tells me that I can hit 120 fps ?
I saw videos of real time play benchmark and they have the same results as me, fix pls.

@EpicStrafe well it shows up there that you will lose about -21.4 FPS or 20% at 1080p, however, you still get a good 60+ FPS overall.

What to Consider Before Buying a Graphics Card
If you have been planning to upgrade your system by purchasing a new graphics card. Then there are some important factors to consider.
Resolution VS Quality: Impact on Game Performance
What affects game performance? Clarity or Details?
Ultra VS High Quality Settings in PC Games
Every player has a different notion about the ideal setting for PC games. But in most cases, opting for a High quality graphics configuration is the way to go.
What are CPU or GPU Bottlenecks?
Are you getting sudden frame drops? you might have a bottleneck.
What is the acceptable FPS speed for me?
For some games, you can still enjoy great garphics at lower frame rates.
