GeForce RTX 2070 (móvel) vs Radeon RX 5700M: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce RTX 2070 (móvel)

2019

Why buy it

  • 14.4% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 15.4 vs 0 G3D/$ ($800 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • Draws 115W instead of 180W, a 65W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like FSR Frame Generation (2023).
  • Radeon RX 5700M is the safer long-term pick here because the hardware is newer and the feature stack is stronger.

Radeon RX 5700M

2020

Why buy it

  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with FSR Frame Generation (2023).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 2070 (móvel) is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 14.4% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Radeon RX 5700M instead at 12,669 vs 12,357, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Radeon RX 5700M is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer feature stack, with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) and FSR Frame Generation (2023), while GeForce RTX 2070 (móvel) is limited to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) and no comparable frame-generation support, a 7nm process instead of 12nm, and a newer 2020 generation instead of 2019. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 2070 (móvel) makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and lighter 1440p, GeForce RTX 2070 (móvel) is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and lighter 1440p headroom, Radeon RX 5700M has the stronger long-term case.
