NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER vs NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
Where they actually differ
The most decisive specs, ranked by how much they matter — before the full spec table.
| Spec | NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER | NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 5070 Ti |
|---|---|---|
| TDP | 320 W | 300 W |
| CUDA / Stream cores | 10240 | 8960 |
| Ray tracing cores | 80 | 70 |
| 3DMark Time Spy | 21500 | 20100 |
| Boost clock | 2550 MHz | 2452 MHz |
Between the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER and GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER comes out ahead in cuda / stream cores / ray tracing cores, while the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti wins on tdp. Overall, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER scores 69.7 and the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti scores 68.1 on our Mars Score.
Which should you buy?
These two are nearly even on the Mars Score (69.7 vs 68.1). The decision is not about overall quality — both clear the bar — it is about which specific trade-offs fit your use.
Pick the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER if you push the hardware — gaming, on-device AI, heavy multitasking — and the extra compute headroom is worth the trade-offs. The biggest gaps in its favor are cuda / stream cores, ray tracing cores, 3dmark time spy, among others. The single most decisive one: CUDA / Stream cores — 14.29% more. 10240 vs 8960.
Pick the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti if you care most about tdp. Its strongest claims are tdp. The single most decisive one: TDP — 20.00 W less. 300 vs 320.
Both ship with comparable vram, memory bus, dlss, so those specs do not separate the two — focus on the differences below.
Bottom line: there is no wrong answer here — match the spec advantages to how you actually use the product. The Mars Score parity says both are well-rounded; the differences are about trade-offs, not quality.
Which should you buy: NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER or NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 5070 Ti?
NVIDIA - GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER leads the current Mars Score by 1.6 points.The more useful decision is the trade-off behind that result: compare cuda / stream cores, boost clock, tdp against the way you will actually use the product.
