Nvidia RTX 4070 Super delivers excellent 1440p gaming with DLSS 3 and ray tracing at a competitive price.
Overview
The RTX 4070 Super is Nvidia mid-range refresh, replacing the original RTX 4070 at the same $599 price point. With more CUDA cores and better ray tracing performance, it targets the sweet spot for 1440p gamers.
Performance
In our testing across 12 games at 1440p ultra settings, the RTX 4070 Super averaged 98fps without DLSS and 142fps with DLSS 3 enabled. Ray tracing performance improved roughly 15% over the original 4070.
Titles like Cyberpunk 2077 with Path Tracing and DLSS 3 ran at a smooth 65fps at 1440p — impressive for a card in this price range.
Power and Thermals
With a 220W TDP, the 4070 Super is remarkably efficient. Our test card peaked at 68C under full load with the stock cooler, drawing just 215W in gaming workloads.
Verdict
The RTX 4070 Super is the best 1440p graphics card on the market right now. It hits the perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and price.
