GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel)

2016

Why buy it

✅Competitive enough if your priority is price, power, or specific feature preference.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 4060 Ti across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
❌2016 hardware with 8 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 56.8 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $399 MSRP).
❌50% higher power demand at 240W vs 160W.

GeForce RTX 4060 Ti

2023

Why buy it

✅126.4% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 56.8 vs 0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
✅Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
✅Draws 160W instead of 240W, a 80W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Fewer clear downsides in this head-to-head, aside from the usual pricing and availability swings.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 126.4% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 27.3% in PassMark G3D (22,651 vs 17,790), so the answer here is pretty clean.

Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer feature stack, with DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) and DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while GeForce GTX 1070 SLI (móvel) is limited to no meaningful modern upscaling stack and no comparable frame-generation support, a 5nm process instead of 16nm, 34 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2023 generation instead of 2016. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

GeForce RTX 4060 Ti makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup.
