Bottom line: how fast is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti?

At 1440p (Max), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti averages 598 fps in CS:GO, per Beebom. For local LLM inference it generates 297.0 tokens/sec running llama3.2:1b at q4_K_M under llama.cpp, per LocalScore.ai. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 26,516 points, per Digital Trends. Its 8 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: that capacity fits 7B-parameter models at Q4.

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.
