Gaming gains are real

Both cards are swaggering into the ring, promising to render your games faster than a caffeinated squirrel and prettier than a pixelated peacock. But who's got the proper technological trousers?

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti

What's the story?

AMD's contender has a Base Clock of 2.4GHz and can boost up to a zippy 2970 MHz. Nvidia's card has a Base Clock of 2.30 GHz and boosts up to 2.45 GHz. Both cards are packing 16GB of VRAM, but the 9070 XT uses GDDR6 running at 20 Gbps on a 256-bit bus, giving it an effective memory bandwidth of around 640GB/s. It also features 64MB of 3rd-Gen AMD Infinity Cache. The 5070 Ti uses newer GDDR7 memory, also on a 256-bit bus, with bandwidth speeds of up to 896GB/s.

Is it any good?
