GeForce RTX 2070 vs GeForce RTX 4070 Ti

Intro

Compare that to the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, which makes use of a 4 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 2310 MHz. The GDDR6X memory works at a frequency of 1313 MHz on this card. It features 7680 SPUs along with 240 Texture Address Units and 80 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Power Consumption (Max TDP)

GeForce RTX 2070		175 Watts
GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		285 Watts
	Difference: 110 Watts (63%)

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti will be 13% faster than the GeForce RTX 2070 overall, due to its greater data rate. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		516096 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2070		458752 MB/sec
	Difference: 57344 (13%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti should be much (approximately 173%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce RTX 2070. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		554400 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2070		203040 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 351360 (173%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti should be a lot (about 105%) faster with regards to FSAA than the GeForce RTX 2070, and also should be capable of handling higher resolutions without slowing down too much. (explain)

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti		184800 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2070		90240 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 94560 (105%)

Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (measured in MB per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in one second. It's worked out by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If the card has DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the max fill rate.
