Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Super vs 3080
Can the RTX 4070 Super do what the RTX 4070 could not and dethrone the RTX 3080 as the go-to GPU in its performance class?
GPU manufacturer Nvidia caught a lot of flak when it first released the GeForce RTX 4070 in 2023 because it just barely matched the performance of 2022’s RTX 3080. Nvidia fans who were expecting a larger performance upgrade from the GeForce RTX 40 Series suddenly found themselves torn between two high-end GPUs released two years apart.

However, with the recent addition of the RTX 4070 Super to the 4070 Family, this rivalry may finally be coming to a close.
