RX 7900 GRE VS RTX 4070- Final Thoughts
The above chart shows that the latest AMD-produced RX 7900 GRE GPU performs better than Nvidia’s RTX 4070 GPU. Except in Microsoft Flight Simulator, AMD’s GRE version GPU delivered equivalent performance similar to the Nvidia RTX 4070 GPU.
But also, Nvidia’s RTX 4070 has done great with all the games you see in the chart list. Every game has successfully delivered over 60 FPS without lag or performance issues.
So, if you are an AMD user, surely go for the RX 7900 GRE GPU for an upgrade. And if you are on Nvidia’s side and want to upgrade from any older Nvidia GPUs like the GTX 1000 series or the RTX 2000 Series, then the Nvidia RTX 4070 GPU will be the perfect upgrade.
But the performance difference between these GPUs doesn’t make much difference because both cards are enthusiast-level cards, and the slight difference between them will neither affect your gaming nor content Creation.
With that being said, Nvidia is much better when giving out driver updates, and maybe in the future, the performance might get a bump because of the Driver updates. But until that happens, AMD RX 7900 GRE is a clear winner.
