Key Differences

  • No game was measured on every one of these cards on one shared test system, so there is no speed comparison to make.
  • GTX 1070 has the most memory bandwidth: 256.3 GB/s against 256.0 GB/s.
  • GTX 1070 draws the least power: 150 W against 185 W.
  • Core counts are not comparable across these architectures.

Frame rates compare runs of the same game at the same quality preset on one test system. DLAA counts as native resolution, because it applies anti-aliasing at full render resolution rather than upscaling; DLSS and FSR upscaling are never counted as native. Where a capture named ray tracing without a readable on or off value, it is read as on.
