Fragz' verdict
The RTX 4070 Ti clearly takes the lead over the RTX 4060 Ti, with its GPU score coming in a significant 77.6% higher. This performance gap is evident across our benchmarks; for instance, the RTX 4070 Ti delivers nearly double the frames in Earth II (Vulkan) at 49.9 FPS compared to the RTX 4060 Ti's 26.6 FPS, and it also shows a substantial advantage in Mission to Earth II (DX12) and Earth II Landing (DX12 Ultimate). Backing this up, the RTX 4070 Ti boasts a much higher raw compute with an ALU index of 568584 versus 327708, along with superior memory bandwidth at 138 GB/s compared to 119 GB/s, more VRAM at 12 GB versus 8 GB, and a higher peak clock of 2910 MHz against 2760 MHz, translating to a smoother and more capable gaming experience. It's important to note that both cards currently have only one verified run in our database, so the sample size is thin for these measurements. While the RTX 4060 Ti can still handle current titles, the RTX 4070 Ti is the superior choice for gamers seeking significantly higher frame rates and better performance headroom.

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
