What does this comparison mean?
RTX 2070 Super 8GB delivers 136.6% more FPS than RX 480 8GB here while retaining the same 8GB memory capacity. This is an increase in measured benchmark throughput without a larger memory buffer, so an upgrade aimed specifically at fitting bigger textures or datasets needs a separate capacity check.
Both variants have 8GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.
The two GPUs in context
RX 480 8GB
The RX 480 launched in June 2016 and introduced AMD's Polaris architecture. This is the 8GB GDDR5 version, rather than the separately listed 4GB configuration.
RTX 2070 Super 8GB
The RTX 2070 Super is an 8GB Turing model released in July 2019 as part of NVIDIA's RTX Super range.

How the figures are compared
Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.
GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
