Performance Comparison

About G3D Mark

🏆 Chipversus Verdict

⚠️ Generational Difference

The RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation is significantly newer (2023 vs 2017). The RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation likely supports modern features like Ray Tracing, Tensor Cores, and DLSS/FSR upscaling, which act as force multipliers for performance. The TITAN V lacks this hardware feature set, limiting its longevity in modern titles despite any raw power similarities.

🚀 Performance Leadership

The RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation is the superior choice for raw performance. It leads with a 2.9% higher G3D Mark score. However, the TITAN V offers more VRAM, which may be beneficial for texture-heavy scenarios at higher resolutions.
