What does this comparison mean?

For an RTX 4070 Super owner, the RTX 5070 is a 13% step in this continuous benchmark, while both cards retain 12GB of memory. The move from GDDR6X to GDDR7 changes the memory technology, not the capacity available to a large scene or texture set. Blackwell Multi Frame Generation is a separate supported-game feature; it is not included in this FurMark comparison. If the existing card already meets your workload, compare the actual upgrade cost and application results before treating the newer generation as a necessary replacement.

Both variants have 12GB 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.

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.
