GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER vs GeForce RTX 5060: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER vs GeForce RTX 5060
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is dramatically faster, around 92% ahead of the GeForce RTX 5060. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is comfortable at 4K with upscaling and native 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 5060 is better matched to 1440p. The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER packs 8,448 CUDA cores versus 3,840 on the GeForce RTX 5060.
Price & Value
The GeForce RTX 5060 currently lists from $590 CAD, $410 CAD less than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER at $1,000 CAD. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER wins on performance-per-dollar by about 13%. The GeForce RTX 5060 still sits about $291 CAD above its $299 CAD MSRP. The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER still sits about $201 CAD above its $799 CAD MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 145W against 285W, the GeForce RTX 5060 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Blackwell architecture on a TSMC 4N process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
VRAM favors the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER at 16GB versus 8GB on the GeForce RTX 5060 — that extra 8GB matters most at 4K, with high-res texture packs, and for content-creation/local-AI work. The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER's memory is also faster — 672 GB/s versus 448 GB/s (256-bit vs 128-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER or GeForce RTX 5060?
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce RTX 5060 if you find it at a steep discount.
