Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce GTX 1070: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce GTX 1070
The Radeon RX 5700 is significantly faster, around 31% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1070. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 5700 is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1070 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce GTX 1070 pulls less power (150W vs 180W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon RX 5700 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it.
Generation & Longevity
The Radeon RX 5700 is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1070, so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1070 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1070 or Radeon RX 5700?
the Radeon RX 5700 is the faster card by about 31%. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.
