GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop vs GeForce GTX 1070: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop vs GeForce GTX 1070
The GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop is dramatically faster, around 109% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1070. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1070 is better matched to entry-level 1080p. The GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop packs 5,120 CUDA cores versus 1,920 on the GeForce GTX 1070.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1070 currently lists from $19,143 INR, $106,857 INR less than the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop at $126,000 INR. The GeForce GTX 1070 still sits about $18,764 INR above its $379 INR MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 125W against 150W, the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Ampere architecture on a Samsung 8nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Memory & Bandwidth
The GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop's memory is faster — 448 GB/s versus 256 GB/s — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop is roughly 5 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1070 (Ampere vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
