Between the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and Radeon RX 9080, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti comes out ahead in cuda / stream cores and dlss, while the Radeon RX 9080 wins on ray tracing cores and 3dmark time spy. Overall, the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti scores 67.6 and the Radeon RX 9080 scores 75.1 on our Mars Score.
Which should you buy?
The Radeon RX 9080 edges ahead on the Mars Score (67.6 vs 75.1), but the 7.5-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti if you care most about cuda / stream cores and dlss. The biggest gaps in its favor are cuda / stream cores, dlss.
Pick the Radeon RX 9080 if you push the hardware — gaming, on-device AI, heavy multitasking — and the extra compute headroom is worth the trade-offs. Its strongest claims are ray tracing cores, 3dmark time spy, vram, among others.
There are no meaningful ties on the headline specs — every popular-comparison metric has a winner.
Bottom line: the Radeon RX 9080 is the safer default. The other model is the right choice only when its specific advantages line up with your priorities.
