NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti vs AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT perform within a few percent of each other for gaming. Both sit in the same class, and our framerate data has each of them limited by the processor rather than the card itself, so neither holds a decisive lead. Choose on price, power draw and the features you actually use.

How many FPS do the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT get?
Estimated framerates with both parts measured against the same reference processor (a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D), so the graphics card is the only thing changing. Figures are ranges, not exact numbers. Measured at 1440p because at 1080p even a fast processor caps both cards and the columns come back identical.

Which is better value?
At launch pricing, the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT delivers more benchmark performance per dollar, by about 4%. Street prices move, so check current cost before deciding: a 4% value gap disappears quickly on discount.
Will the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti bottleneck your build?
These figures hold one component constant. Your own build decides the answer: a faster graphics card buys nothing if the processor is already the limit.
How we compare graphics cards
Benchmark scores come from PassMark, 3DMark, Geekbench and Cinebench. Framerates come from our own model, built from measured GPU baselines and processor ceilings, and it declines to produce a number for hardware it does not cover rather than estimating one.
