Fragz' verdict
The RTX 4070 Ti decisively takes the win over the RTX 2080 SUPER, leading by a massive 112.5% in GPU score. This substantial performance gap is evident across our test suite, with the RTX 4070 Ti delivering 45.1 FPS in Earth II (Vulkan) and 56.7 FPS in Mission to Earth II (DX12), compared to 19.4 FPS and 23.1 FPS respectively for the 2080 SUPER. The newer card also boasts significantly higher raw compute with an ALU index of 559655, a peak clock of 2910 MHz, and more memory bandwidth at 129 GB/s, alongside 12 GB of VRAM. While the RTX 2080 SUPER's data comes from a thin sample of only two verified runs, its 8 GB of VRAM and lower overall performance mean it simply can't keep up with modern demands. For gamers seeking a significant upgrade in raw power and future-proofing, the RTX 4070 Ti is the clear choice.

What the numbers mean
The GPU score is the graphics card's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the card in, and depends on processor, memory and storage. We show both and never mix them.
All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
