Notes on 5 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, Launch price: NVIDIA sells no Founders Edition of this card; $749 is the starting MSRP for partner cards.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, Power connectors: One 16-pin 12V-2x6 socket; an adapter for two 8-pin cables comes in the box.
  3. 3AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, HDMI version: AMD's spec page lists HDMI 2.1; its own press release and Notebookcheck state HDMI 2.1a.
  4. 4NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1b at the full UHBR20 rate.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, DisplayPort version: Notebookcheck lists the DisplayPort 2.1 link rate as UHBR13.5; AMD notes DP 2.1 support depends on AIB designs.

Performance and power

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti delivers superior processing capability with 8,960 shader cores and 43.9 TFLOPS of FP32 compute. Higher clock speeds and advanced Blackwell architecture mean smoother frame rates in demanding titles.

Running this extra performance requires a 300 W board power and a 750 W recommended PSU, leaning on a modern 12V-2x6 connector. The AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT operates at a more efficient 263 W and runs on a standard 8-pin power setup with a 700 W recommended PSU.

Memory and speed

While both cards match at a 256-bit memory bus width and 16 GB capacity, the RTX 5070 Ti pulls ahead with GDDR7 memory. This reaches a blazing 28 Gbps speed and an 896 GB/s memory bandwidth.

By comparison, the RX 7800 XT relies on GDDR6 technology at 19.5 Gbps and 624 GB/s bandwidth. However, AMD counters with a larger 64 MB last-level cache compared to the 48 MB found on the NVIDIA card.

Connectivity and value

The RTX 5070 Ti adopts the newer PCIe 5.0 interface alongside updated DisplayPort 2.1b and HDMI 2.1b outputs. These standards ensure better long-term compatibility with high-refresh monitors and future display technologies.

On the other hand, the RX 7800 XT launches at a lower price of $499 compared to the $749 starting MSRP for partner NVIDIA cards. That significant price difference makes the AMD card a compelling option for budget-conscious builders.
