NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Goes on Sale, Starting at $599
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER started selling today. The card is generally available, with the NVIDIA MSRP set at USD $599. The RTX 4070 Super is part of a three product refresh of the GeForce RTX 40-series product stack that NVIDIA announced at its 2024 International CES event, on January 8. It offers more performance for the price the RTX 4070 originally sold at, which now comes with a price cut to $549, with its real-world pricing expected to be between $510-560. The RTX 4070 SUPER is based on the same 5 nm "AD104" silicon as the RTX 4070 and RTX 4070 Ti, but comes with a decent bump in shaders over the original RTX 4070.
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is configured with 7,168 CUDA cores—a 21 percent increase over the RTX 4070. It also gets an extra 16 ROPs, maxing out the 80 ROPs present on the silicon. What's more, NVIDIA also unlocked the full 48 MB of on-die L2 cache memory for the RTX 4070 SUPER, which is the same as the RTX 4070 Ti. The original RTX 4070 only has 36 MB of this cache enabled. Spare for 4 SM worth 512 shaders, the RTX 4070 SUPER is almost an RTX 4070 Ti, but there's one last differentiator—power limits. The RTX 4070 SUPER is configured with a total graphics power (TGP) of 220 W, whereas the RTX 4070 Ti has it set at 285 W. Some of the factory-overclocked RTX 4070 SUPER cards attempt to raise this limit by around 20 W. NVIDIA has decided to phase out the RTX 4070 Ti from its product stack, which finds itself replaced with the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, coming in next week.

In terms of raw price/performance overall amd still beats them. RX 7800 XT is slightly faster overall than regular RTX 4070 and it's a bit cheaper. RTX 4070 SUPER right now is overpriced and lags behind both.
