As of yesterday, GeForce RTX 4070 Founders Editon pictures were leaked. Foreign media Videocardz leaked official benchmarks of upcoming mid-range graphics cards compared with GeForce RTX 3080, RTX 3070 Ti, and GeForce RTX 3070.

According to the official benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4070 would have a performance equal to the GeForce RTX 3080 in rasterization, and the new graphics card is taking the lead with 1.4x when it comes to performance with DLSS 3. 

So where the RTX 4070 would gain ground with Frame Generation (DLSS3) and Shader Execution Reordering, obtaining 40% performance or more over the GeForce RTX 3080. 

That’s why Nvidia is betting on the benefit of using DLSS3 in their marketing and barely mentioning performance figures without DLSS or raytracing. As for SER (Shader Execution Reordering), at the moment, the two titles that used it (or are going to use it) are Sackboy: A Big Adventure with its March 16 patch and Cyberpunk 2077 with its Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode update on April 11.

Conversely, the GeForce RTX 4070 will be 1.2 times faster than the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and 1.3 times faster than the GeForce RTX 3070 when DLSS 2 is applied. According to NVIDIA, the GeForce RTX 4070 will be 1.4x, 1.7x, and 1.8x faster than RTX 30 GPUs with DLSS3 and FG, respectively.

Officially, the card targets the 1440p gaming experience with 100 FPS, considering ray tracing and DLSS3 are enabled.

Gaming benchmarks at 1440p now show twice as many games with Frame Generation than without. Most reviewers will probably focus on the second part showing titles that don’t have DLSS3, with their tests to demonstrate the gen-to-gen performance improvements.

GeForce RTX 4070 will go on sale for $599 and will be launched on April 13. Are you excited about the new mid-range graphics card from Nvidia? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
