Pros And Cons

Comparison Table

Architectural Differences

1. Clock Speed: The RX 6800 XT lags in base clock speed at 1825MHz compared to the RTX 4070 Ti Super’s faster 2340MHz. Boost clocks are closer, with the RX 6800 XT reaching 2250MHz, while the RTX 4070 Ti Super hits up to 2610MHz.
2. Manufacturing Nodes: The RTX 4070 Ti Super has 5nm processing nodes, which are much more power efficient than the 7nm processing nodes found on the RX 6800 XT.
3. TDP: The better processing nodes of the RTX 4070 Ti Super also translate into a lower TDP of around 285 watts than the RX 6800 XT’s 300-watt TDP.
4. VRAM: The memory configuration on both cards is almost the same, with the RTX 4070 Ti Super using 16 gigabytes of GDDR6X memory over a 256-bit bus, whereas the RX 6800 XT swaps it out with GDDR6 memory over the same bus size.
5. Other Differences: RTX 4070 Ti Super enhances gaming with ray reconstruction, DLSS, and frame generation. RX 6800 XT uses AMD’s software for similar benefits, but Nvidia’s approach is more refined.

In the midst of Nvidia’s new card releases, revisiting older models is crucial to assess their value. Dive into the RTX 4070 Ti Super vs RX 6800 XT comparison to gauge how the new card stacks up against its predecessor!

Gaming Benchmarks – 4K

The subsequent few sections of our RTX 4070 Ti Super vs RX 6800 XT comparison will look at the performance these cards have in modern titles. Our tests will be conducted using a test bench fit for both cards, the specifications of which are listed below:

Test Bench

• CPU: Intel Core i9-12900K
• RAM:  G.Skill Ripjaws S5 6000MHz DDR5
• SSD: XPG GAMMIX S70 BLADE 2TB NVMe
• PSU: ENERMAX REVOLUTION D.F. X 1050W
• CPU Cooler: Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 – AIO Water Cooler
• Motherboard: ASUS TUF Gaming Z690-Plus 

Cyberpunk 2077

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

• In this game, at mostly Ultra High settings and no upscaling, the RX 6800 XT averaged 68 FPS, while the RTX 4070 Ti Super performed 35% better with an average framerate of 94 FPS.
• The 1% lows were around 60 FPS on the RX 6800 XT, whereas the RTX 4070 Ti Super proved to be noticeably smoother, with lows of about 71 FPS.

Watch Dogs: Legion

• In Watch Dogs: Legion, the RX 6800 XT achieved 63 FPS, while the RTX 4070 Ti Super surpassed it with 93 FPS, creating a 48% performance difference.
• The 1% lows also fell short on the older card, hovering around 52 FPS, whereas the RTX 4070 Ti Super was much more comfortable with lows of around 81 FPS.

Red Dead Redemption 2

Doom Eternal 

Horizon Zero Dawn

• With all the settings turned up, this PS port ran with an average framerate of 114 FPS on the Nvidia card, which was around 54% higher than the RX 6800 XT’s average framerate of about 74 FPS.
• The 1% lows flipped the narrative for the first time in our testing. The RX 6800 XT had lows of 66 FPS, noticeably higher than the RTX 4070 Ti Super’s 1% lows of 54 FPS.

A Plague Tale Requiem

• In A Plague Tale Requiem, the RTX 4070 Ti Super averaged 67 FPS, outperforming the RX 6800 XT by about 40%, which managed around 48 FPS.
• The 1% lows of these cards also stood starkly apart, with the RX 6800 XT getting lows of around 37 FPS, whereas the RTX 4070 Ti Super managed more enjoyable lows of about 52 FPS.

Overall Gaming Performance

The RTX 4070 Ti Super outperformed the RX 6800 XT by a significant 37% in average FPS during our tests, showcasing its superiority. Even without factoring in its strengths in RT and frame-gen capabilities, the Nvidia card stood out. In 1% lows, the RTX 4070 Ti Super delivered smoother minimum framerates.

Power Consumption

Despite the leaps in performance of the RTX 4070 Ti Super, it only consumed around 3% more power than the RX 6800 XT, which is a massive increase in power efficiency. Most gamers aren’t worried about their card’s power efficiency as much as they worry about the actual power they draw, in which both cards are virtually identical.

Price And Value 

Finally, now we’ve gotten to the strong point of the RX 6800 XT. Despite its performance being around a third lower than the RTX 4070 Ti Super, it costs almost half as much, even less if you buy used. This gives it a tremendous frame-per-dollar number compared to any new card on the market.

What We Recommend

RTX 4070 Ti Super: The RTX 4070 Ti Super delivers top-notch performance for demanding titles, excelling in gaming tests with advanced features and outstanding ray-traced capabilities, making it an ideal choice for high-end gaming.

RX 6800 XT: The RX 6800 XT, while falling short in performance compared to the RTX 4070 Ti Super, offers a more reasonable value. It performs well in most 4k games, with a few exceptions. Adjusting settings allows enjoyable gameplay on this card, and its lower price makes it accessible to a wider audience.

At the end of the road, the choice of the RTX 4070 Ti Super vs RX 6800 XT is one based on your budget. The Radeon card excels at giving a good gaming experience on a budget, whereas the RTX 4070 Ti Super leaves no stone unturned with its excellent performance and well-rounded feature set.
