Bottom line: how fast is the GeForce RTX 4070?

At 1440p (High), the GeForce RTX 4070 averages 214 fps in Counter-Strike 2, per PC Guide. For local LLM inference it generates 283.0 tokens/sec running llama3.2:1b at q4_K_M under llama.cpp, per LocalScore.ai. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 37,790 points, per Overclocking.com.

Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.

The GeForce RTX 4070 is a graphics card from the Ada Lovelace family from NVIDIA. Data on this page draws on 8+ Amazon listings, 10 synthetic benchmark results, 12 community AI inference reports, 14 measured game frame-rate results, aggregated from public benchmark databases (TechPowerUp, PassMark, Geekbench, Cinebench) and the LocalLLaMA community. Read this page when shopping the GeForce RTX 4070, comparing it against other graphics cards in your build, or sizing it for a specific workload (gaming at 1080p/1440p/4K, productivity benchmarks, or local LLM inference).
