The interesting part to me was that Nvidia claim the new 5070 will have 4090 level performance for a much lower price ($549). Less memory however.
If that holds up in the benchmarks, this is a nice jump for a generation. I agree with others that more memory would've been nice, but it's clear Nvidia are trying to segment their SKUs into AI and non-AI models and using RAM to do it.
That might not be such a bad outcome if it means gamers can actually buy GPUs without them being instantly bought by robots like the peak crypto mining era.
- dagmx 2y agoThat claim is with a heavy asterisk of using DLSS4. Without DLSS4, it’s looking to be a 1.2-1.3x jump over the 4070.
- knallfrosch 2y agoDo games need to implement something on their side to get DLSS4?
- Vampiero 2y agoOn the contrary, they need to be optimized so badly that they run like shit on 2025 graphics cards despite looking the exact same as games from years ago
- Macha 2y agoThe asterisk is DLSS4 is using AI to generate extra frames, rather than rendering extra frames, which hurts image stability and leads to annoying fuzziness/flickering. So it's not comparing like with like. Also since they're not coming from the game engine, they don't actually react as the game would, so they don't have advantages in terms of response times that actual frame rate does.
- popcalc 2y agoWas surprised to relearn the GTX 980 premiered at $549 a decade ago.
- izacus 2y agoWhich is 750$ in 2024 adjusted for inflation and you got a card that's providing 1/3 of performance of a 4070Ti at equal price range. 1/4 with 5070Ti probably. 3x the FPS at same cost (ignoring AI cores, encoders, resolutions, etc.) is a decent performance track record. With DLSS enabled the difference is significantly bigger.
