GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel)

2016

Why buy it

✅24.1% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅33.3% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 6 GB).

Trade-offs

❌Poor future-proofing: 2016-era hardware with 8 GB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.
❌140% higher power demand at 120W vs 50W.

GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Mobile)

2020

Why buy it

✅Less risky long-term buy than GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel): it remains the more sensible modern option while GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) is already legacy-tier future-proofing.
✅Draws 50W instead of 120W, a 70W reduction.
✅More future proof: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 6 GB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 6 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) better than GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Mobile)?

Yes. GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) is the better GPU overall here. You are getting 24.1% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data, 3.4% higher PassMark G3D performance, and 8 GB vs 6 GB of VRAM. It also comes from 2016 instead of 2020, which helps its case as the more complete modern gaming card.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Mobile) is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2020 generation instead of 2016 and a 12nm process instead of 16nm. That makes it the safer long-run choice for modern games.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 24.1% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 3.4% higher G3D Mark. G3D-per-dollar is basically tied between them. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Mobile) still makes more sense on price alone, but the performance trade-off is much harder to justify by current standards.

When does GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Mobile) make more sense than GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel)?

Yes. GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Mobile) is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture, lower power draw (50W vs 120W), future-proofing, and staying closer to an unclear MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel). The trade-off is that GeForce GTX 1070 (móvel) currently gives you 3.4% higher G3D Mark and 24.1% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. G3D-per-dollar is basically tied between them.
