The fact that Nvidia 7 YEARS ago sold a mid-tier card with 8 GB of VRAM and another mid-tier card 7 years later, the 4060 ti STILL has 8GB of memory even though it's already not enough for games like hogwarts legacy is mind boggling.

The 1070 is still a really good gpu. If you bought it at release date, I would say that you would have made a really great purchase!

1070 Transistors = 7, 200 million
4070 Transistors = 35, 800 million

You don't need everything at ULTRA to play on the 1070. "High" looks just as good.
All of these will run VERY WELL at 60 fps (VSync turned on) on a 1070.

Proud owner of Rog Strix 1070 OC Edition I got today to upgrade my gtx 970, and yesss, it's night and day, im hitting my desired 75fps in halo infinite with ease now. i got it for £125 but with part exchange of old parts i got it for £70.
It's definitely the 970's big brother for sure and blows it out the water.

Basically, if you are going to continue gaming at 1080p, the 1070 will still do the job with a few tweaks. If you have to upgrade, a 6700XT at $300-350 is a good budget choice. Or, a 1080 can be picked up for $100. The series 10 remains the best Gen of cards we've seen from any manufacturer. Shame we're now in La La Land.

damn that 1070!!!😮 considering everything is maxed dude

[PabloSotto]

I have a GTX 1070 that still performs well, but it's tired and the RTX 4070 is a nice upgrade when it's priced right.

Funny how TLOU VRAM is already almost full. Good job NVIDIA with sticking to 8 GB VRAM since 7 years. At this point I feel like NVIDIA is just trolling us...

[AMD_]

3.5x times faster even without Frame Generation.

Here below are the interesting comparisons:
It actually had been through 4 years and been came with 3 generations that those relative performances of 70 tiers graphics card had had gone up to 238% when comparing the GTX 670, 2GB VRAM to GTX 1070, 8GB VRAM, meanwhile the level of aforementioned 70 ties' launch prices had been almost kept the same with 399 USD to 379 USD respectively! Besides, the power consumptions of its kind had been dropped from 170 W down to 150 W!

Then here come to the development progresses of almost been nearly 7 years with same 3 generations forwards from GTX 1070, 8GB VRAM to RTX 4070, 12GB VRAM, the relative performances between them have been increased to 269% but the launch prices also have been levelled up from 379 USD to 599 USD, so have the power consumptions been gone from 150 W up to 200 W!

I've buy my GTX1070 ZOTAC AMP Extreme on premiere 2016 during my upgrade preparation for battlefield 1 (+i7 7700k). I change CPU (Ryzen 7 5800x3d), RAM, and still running great at 1080p games (ect. Battlefield 2042 around 90/100 FPS or ). Just great card.

8gb vram is actually enough for mid tier, just for some unoptimized one like Hogwarts and TLOU is hogging more vram than it should. I mean, look at Cyberpunk with Overdrive Mode (which is for me is looks much better than TLOU or HL) is not even maxing out 8gb of vram, that is on the most demanding graphics mode.

[van-nllo]

For me it would be a great upgrad, i upgrad from a gtx 770 and got more than twice as much performance with gtx 1070, with the 4070 its almost three times

I'm still using EVGA 1070FTW gpu. On a 6yr old spec PC, using Samsung TV (which Im going to replace when I decide which monitor to go with) for me its time to upgrade, as now I'm wanting to get back into gaming.. but with the latest shit thats out now, so confusing.

[Igor-Bond]

Cool, thank you, you are well done, I respect your work! But I want to see a similar AMD video card test!

A couple months ago I sold an EVGA GTX 1070 SC Black edition for $100 to a repeat customer. For the games he plays, he said the 1070 was a major upgrade from the RX 580 he was using.

[biskwiq]

this would be my future gpu when i have my money

[nossy]

One thing is for sure. The RTX 4070 won't age as well as the GTX 1070 because of it's 12 GB VRAM.
