RTX 4070 benchmark with Core i5-12600K 1080p, 1440p, Ultrawide, 4K benchmarks at Ultra Quality
It is worth noting that the RTX 4070 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. In terms of memory, the RTX 4070 's 12288 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. 4K gaming is joyous on this RTX 4070 , and with a little tweaking to your AA settings, it'd be hard to imagine a title not capable of 60 fps on average.
The release year of the graphics card. The newer the better technology and performance optimization and
driver support.

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.
The RTX 4070 sits between the RX 6950 XT and the RX 6900 XT, falling slower than RX 6950 XT by 5.4% and faster than RX 6900 XT by 4.8%. It has a strong relative performance against every graphics card here. In addition, the RTX 4070 was also faster than the RTX 3070 by a good margin. When compared to its lower sibling - the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB - we see a more than 20% faster performance for the RTX 4070.
The RTX 4070 sits between the RX 7900 XT and the RTX 3080 Ti, falling slower than RX 7900 XT by 1.1% and faster than RTX 3080 Ti by 4.7%. It has a strong relative performance against every graphics card here. Its results are actually indistinguishable from those of the RX 7900 XT. Those who have a high refresh rate monitor will enjoy what RTX 4070 has to offer as it averages 267.8 fps. In addition, the RTX 4070 was also faster than the RTX 3070 by a good margin. When compared to its lower sibling - the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB - we see a more than 20% faster performance for the RTX 4070.

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.
