AND I knew RTX 5070 deceived me. This graphics card 539 £ / 549 USD, parked next to the extravagant stupidity of two graphic RTX 5090, looked like a very pleasant offer, offering all the same DLSS 4 and the Multi Rame Generation as his larger, heavier brothers. In addition, update to RTX 4070 Super, GPU, which could cope with 4K, not looking at the place in the premium 1080p set. Tragically, however, RTX 5070 breaks the holy covenant, mutual understanding between the owners of computers and the creators of parts that have been forceful for decades: if you buy a novel version of things, it should be faster than the aged version of this. Look beyond the illusion of the MFG, and it is not much too often.
Covering the specifications does not boost any clear reasons for the lack of efficiency; The core number of Miracles RTX 5070s is 6144, putting it only between RTX 4070 (5888) and RTX 4070 Super (7168), but the speed clock speeds were increased, as well as the strengthening were raised to compensate. Meanwhile, VRAM remains at 12 GB, but with the transition from GDDR6X to GDDR7, which brings much more capacity. Then there is a power assessment, which both delayed edition of the founders and this triple fan pnefece RTX 5070 OC at 250 W-50 in more than the basic RTX 4070 Super. It looks and sounds like a decent generational update.
And yet …
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Review: 4K Temparks
While the RTX 5070 causes the cut as a 4K claimant, exceeding 60 frames per second in most ultra-quality games without height, the only time in which he apparently caused faster air was in Cyberpunk 2077. Somewhere else, only exceeds RTX 4070 super super great through secret fruns for a second and fate to SSS-in many times 4070000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. Process.
Of course, very few potential buyers will update directly from last year’s RTX 4070 Super to RTX 5070, and the latest model at least improves RTX 5070. Troubles are: improvement has already been introduced in the last generation, and for prices that – you are lucky to find RTX 5070 in concentrations below 600 pounds.
It is also worth taking care of a specific claim made by NVIDIA during their original announcement of the RTX 50 series that RTX 5070 provides “RTX 4090 Performance” with MFG. This is the case, depending on how generous you want to be or is missing in the context or complete Tosh. Although it is true that, for example, 4x MFG can drag the RTX 5070 to 71 frames per second in a completely sighed path Alan Wake 2, it is only equal or faster than RTX 4090, if you refuse your older GPU your own tools. Indeed, it only requires the aged DLSS 3, 2x generation of frames to an average of 82 frames per second in identical settings. In miniature, the only way RTX 5070 is really moving at the same pace as RTX 4090, if they are in the same van.
You can still consider the MFG as an RTX 5070 party trick, although in particular at 4K, this is not as great as on Burlier cards, such as RTX 5070 TI and RTX 5080. In Cyberpunk and Alan Wake 2, RTX 4070 combines its 40-series rivals, not to go to DLS playing at DLS at DLS at DLS; In fact, in the latter it is a narrowly regular party. As a result, when the 4x MFG begins, it produces a higher number in the leader, but it does not really facilitate in games and smoother or more responsive than in 30 series DLSS 30. As for the computer, it still works only at a speed of 26/21 frames per second, and all the framework generated by AI in the world does not get rid of the snail-paced feeling that in these conditions they will suffer in these conditions in these conditions conditions.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Review: 1440p comparative tests
1440p is a more comfortable environment for RTX 5070 technology. Gen, although its problems with excessive performance remain. If so, then more Here, burdensome, when higher frames are even more complex to say the difference of naked eye between this and its predecessors.
At Assassin’s Creed Mirage RTX 4070, it ends in ahead, even one frame, and even games in which RTX 5070 is doing relatively well (Cyberpunk 2077, F1 24) sees only an boost in about 10%. There is a simultaneous exposure to the crevices from the RTX 5070 Ti, which suggests that you do not have to stretch to the Ti version to get high quality Quad HD, and again, anyone who updates the RTX 3070 RTX 3070 will enjoy a significant boost in speed. Despite this, these benefits may apply to the RTX 4070 super same as RTX 5070.
The same cannot be said honestly in the scope of frame performance. Although these tests suggest that the RTX 5070 is actually a bit worse in dealing with tracking the path/radiation tracking than the nice GPU RTX 40, unlike 4K, is able to produce a sufficient number of frames before the generation to support the feasible exploit of 4x MFG.
I am not saying that this is the right substitute for traditionally rendered frames, but at least in this resolution you can see where Nvidia comes from. Defended by the need to compensate the sub-frames per second, Frame Gen can simply shine the visual smoothness of the right games as it should.
Despite this, it is also complex not to look into these high RTX 5070 TI and RTX 5080 bars, wondering why the standard RTX 5070 could not just do a little more in the conventional rendering department.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Review: 1080p benchmarks
The decrease to an even less demanding screen does not do much to raise the proposal of the RTX 5070 value. Once again he is persecuted by GPS GPUS XX70, especially in Assassin’s Creed Mirage, where he repeats his embarrassing loss. He gains a few additional frames above the RTX 4070 Super in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, but it already works so speedy that you need a 300 Hz monitor and even inhuman to see them in action.
All this means that we must return to the world of maximum lighting effects and generation of AI frame in search of consolation prize. Similarly to 1440p, RTX 5070, it starts inexplicably worse than RTX 4070 Super, when it concerns tracking of the path, although in both games it is still a solid enough base to exploit 4x MFG without delaying the input coating of your grandchildren in Treacle.
You will have to forgive me that you do not share these results of the type of champagne enthusiasm, which the multi -colored bar charts deserve. I know it’s not like RTX 5070 has gone back to such an extent that it is a bad graphic processor in a general sense-get it on RRP, like this PNNE model, and it is still a good graphics card with many disciplines that will comfortably play anything except the most brutal 4K settings. And what did I say earlier that RTX 4070 is great cheaper faster? Reader, I’m afraid it was a guess. Currently, they are still on sale in the range of 600-700 GBP, and while many RTX 5070S partner will certainly fill the same space, if these two GPu cost the same, there is no critical reason to stick to the elder. Perhaps there is an argument in favor of the energy efficiency RTX 4070 Super – I measured it reaching the peak 219 in my tests, compared to 251 W NA RTX 5070 – but despite all his shortcomings I would prefer to have MFG than saving 30 W.

Despite this, it is also completely sincere and reasonable to expect some kind of meaning, and not completely religious improvements from each novel generation. RTX 5070 simply does not deliver and I am honestly worried that if we just move our arms and accept it, generating frames will really be the only way in which the future GPU turned the problem with the update of “performance”. Even when, as showing the results of tracking 4K paths of the same card, this approach is inappropriate when the game page in the industry still asks about the equipment.
