Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Super Review: A Step In The Right Direction
4,146Correction: A small error on the specs table - RTX 4070 Ti has the same 504GB/s of bandwidth as Super and vanilla 4070s.
Nvidia kicks off 2024 with its Super refresh to the RTX 40 series line, addressing the controversial 70-series offerings by increasing value. Three 'Supers' are en route and we're kicking off with the RTX 4070 Super, offering performance closer to the 4070 Ti at 4070 prices.

Avatar at 4K? Alan Wake 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 path-tracing? Unreal Engine 5? They're all tested here.
