Gameplay Performance

In the gaming performance below, we are comparing performance at 1440p, as this is the prime target resolution for these graphics cards. We are using an ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER and ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti for comparison, these are stock-clocked, reference-clocked GPU cards for the 4070 Ti SUPER and 4070 Ti. We are also using an AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT reference card.

Alan Wake 2

ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Video Card Alan Wake 2 Performance Graph

In Alan Wake 2, we are running the latest version, which includes updates for DLSS 4 support. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti allows a playable gameplay experience at 1440p with the highest game settings at a smooth and playable 94FPS. If you enable DLSS, performance jumps up to well over 120FPS in this game at 1440p, which is very playable.

The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti improves upon the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER by 11% in performance. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti improves upon the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti performance by 19%. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is 7% faster than the Radeon RX 7900 XT, which does remarkably well in this game, beating the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER in performance.

When we overclock the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti we get a 9% performance increase from the overclock, which is decent, this brings the native resolution performance up to 100FPS. With it overclocked, it is now 21% faster than the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, which does look better.

Black Myth: Wukong

ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Video Card Black Myth Wukong Performance Graph

Black Myth: Wukong is very demanding at Cinematic quality, even at 1440p. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, however, does not offer a playable experience at native resolution in Cinematic quality, it cannot hit 60FPS at native resolution. However, if we enable DLSS the game is very playable at 74FPS average. It is certainly more playable than any of the other cards here.

The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti ends up being 13% faster than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER and 21% faster than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti and Radeon RX 7900 XT. Overclocking the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti improves performance by 8% in this game. With it overclocked, it still cannot reach 60FPS, but with DLSS it is playable. Overclocked it is 22% faster than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER.

Cyberpunk 2077

ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Video Card Cyberpunk 2077 Performance Graph

In Cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p and “Ultra” settings the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is very much playable at over 120FPS. Enabling DLSS further improves that to 150FPS average. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is 21% faster than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER and 29% faster than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. It is 10% faster than the Radeon RX 7900 XT, which does well in this game. It seems the new RTX 50 series 5070 Ti is seeing a bigger jump in this game over the RTX 40 series than other games.

When overclocked, the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti improves performance by 9%. With this overclock that brings the ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti to 32% faster than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, which is the largest experienced in this review today compared to the 4070 Ti SUPER. This game is an outlier, in that regard.

Dying Light 2

SUMMARY

The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Video Card is a $749 MSRP video card from ASUS in its PRIME lineup. It performs faster than the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER in games, but won't blow your socks off, though it is more significant compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. If you can grab it for $749, the value holds as an upgrade compared to the GeForce RTX 30 series, or lesser. The ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is built-well, and has incredible overclocking potential for this PRIME card design. The PRIME design is appealing, minimalistic, and sleek.

Hey, I see that MSRP of 749... got a link where I can see it for that price. Not buy it because we ALL know that's impossible.

I have to take it back. Looking at Microcenters site it's been marked DOWN to 749.99 from the 899.99 price it was initially published at!

I wonder of J2C's video had an impact on that.

While I expected it to be much closer to the RTX 4080 vs the RTX 4070Ti, it's a nice card none the less.

From what I've gathered from other reviews, the 5070Ti likes 4k better than 1440p, where it seems to call for some driver optimizations, could be the best 4kDLSS card for the price.

No reason to get a 4070Ti and might wanna hold off getting a 4080Super until they come down in price.

There's also futureproofing with neural shaders and the other new fancy features Blackwell brings to the table.

I was betting it would be a great overclocker, very pleasant surprise.

Now let's see what AMD brings to the table. I'm expecting the 9700XT to be faster than the 5070Ti in raster with RTX4080Super level of performance.

There's no reason getting a 4070TiS or 4080S because they are completely OOS everywhere other than China.

Why no 4k benchmarks?

Some folks are under the impression it provides a better 4k experience. *shrugs*

compared to the 4070Ti super, it does.

I would not be too thrilled about the 5070 Ti's 4K gaming performance, to be honest. It would most definitely require DLSS to be enabled, and RT would be a pipedream.

From what I've seen, 4k gaming is within reach in several games even without DLSS, but RT is pretty much out of the question even with DLSS. well... actually there's multiframe generation, but, really?

LazyGamer

I'd run it at 4k if that's what I had to work with, DLSS and MFG if I had to. Remember older games / slower games are still fine, but make for less interesting benchmarks ;).

Plenty 4080 super in stock here, for only 1.599€ and up, still cheaper then the 5080's

We have basically zero rolling stock in the US. It's sold out as soon as it's listed.

Yeah, but if you want to play newer games... Also consider people keep their cards maybe 2+ years, so you are talking about new game releases in 2025, 2026, and maybe 2027 that you'll be playing on it.

Restocking is done in the U.S. since production has ceased. There are no more new units to be had. 4000 series is deadski.

on a side note, apparently this "MSRP" card is being listed for $1,000 and up
