GeForce RTX 3090 Ti vs GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 3090 Ti vs GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER and GeForce RTX 3090 Ti post nearly the same score in our performance index, so neither holds a meaningful raw-speed advantage. Both are best suited to 4K with upscaling and native 1440p gaming. The GeForce RTX 3090 Ti packs 10,752 CUDA cores versus 7,168 on the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER starts at $719 GBP against $1,464 GBP for the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. Despite being slower, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER offers the better performance-per-dollar (~99% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER still sits about $120 GBP above its $599 GBP MSRP. The GeForce RTX 3090 Ti is trading below its $1,999 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER draws just 220W versus 450W for the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Ada Lovelace architecture on a TSMC N4 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 24GB against 12GB, the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER's 12GB can fall short. The GeForce RTX 3090 Ti's memory is also faster — 1,008 GB/s versus 504 GB/s (384-bit vs 192-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti (Ada Lovelace vs Ampere), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER or GeForce RTX 3090 Ti?
Choose the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER stretches your money further for near-identical performance.
