Is the new RTX 5070 really as fast as Nvidia's previous flagship RTX 4090 GPU? Turns out the answer is yes. Kinda.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 was only fully revealed this week at CES 2025, but already the GPU is causing quite a stir. Though arguably the least powerful of the just unveiled 50-series, the RTX 5070 has been the subject of a number of headline-worthy claims. Alas, most folks will have to wait until the 50-series launches this February to see if it's worth the hype—but tech journalists aren't most folks.

Case in point, PCGamesN has already seen the RTX 5070 in action and has since shared its findings.
