AMD Radeon Pro 570 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Comparison

The AMD Radeon Pro 570 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER occupy opposite ends of the GPU timeline, yet both appear in the same benchmark database with surprisingly close overall percentile rankings. The Radeon Pro 570, a 2017-era integrated graphics solution for Mac systems, sits at the 78th percentile among all GPUs, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, a 2024 add-in card, ranks at the 76th percentile. This oddity stems from the fact that the Radeon Pro 570’s average benchmark score of 33,207 exceeds the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER’s 31,087, driven largely by the latter’s inclusion of older DirectX 9 and 10 tests that drag its aggregate down. The data tells a story of two very different products that, on paper, appear closer than their hardware generations suggest, but the head-to-head results reveal a massive gulf in raw compute capability.

FAQ

Q: Which GPU has the higher average benchmark score?

A: The AMD Radeon Pro 570 holds an average benchmark score of 33,207, which is higher than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER’s 31,087. Despite this, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER wins both shared head-to-head benchmarks decisively.

Q: How do the two GPUs compare in Geekbench OpenCL?

A: The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER scores 199,267 in Geekbench OpenCL, while the Radeon Pro 570 scores 27,702. This represents an 86.1% deficit for the AMD card, making it the largest single-test gap between the two.

Q: What is the memory configuration difference?

A: The Radeon Pro 570 has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 217.0 GB/s bandwidth. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER offers 16 GB of GDDR6X on the same 256-bit bus, with bandwidth of 672.3 GB/s, which is over three times higher.

Q: Which GPU has dedicated ray tracing hardware?

A: Only the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER includes ray tracing cores, with 66 of them, alongside 264 tensor cores. The Radeon Pro 570 has no RT or tensor core counts listed in the data.

Q: What are the relative percentile rankings?

A: The Radeon Pro 570 sits at the 78th percentile among all GPUs, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is at the 76th percentile. Both are near the upper-middle range, but the AMD part ranks slightly higher despite its older architecture.

Q: What is the process node difference?

A: The Radeon Pro 570 uses a 14 nm process at GlobalFoundries, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER uses a 5 nm process at TSMC. The newer node allows the NVIDIA chip to pack 45,900 million transistors into a 379 mm² die, versus 5,700 million in 232 mm² for AMD.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER wins every head-to-head benchmark where both GPUs have results. In Geekbench OpenCL, it posts 199,267 versus 27,702, a 86.1% advantage that reflects its far higher compute throughput. In Geekbench Vulkan, it scores 53,683 against 31,974, a 40.4% lead. These results align with its 44.10 TFLOPS FP32 performance, which dwarfs the Radeon Pro 570’s 3.960 TFLOPS. The NVIDIA card also dominates in memory bandwidth, with 672.3 GB/s versus 217.0 GB/s, and offers 16 GB of VRAM versus 4 GB, making it the clear choice for any workload that stresses memory capacity or bandwidth.

The Radeon Pro 570, however, wins on aggregate score due to the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER’s weaker showings in legacy DirectX tests. The NVIDIA card scores only 181 in Passmark DirectX 10, 278 in DirectX 11, 119 in DirectX 12, and 360 in DirectX 9, while its Passmark G3D score of 31,811 and GPU compute score of 18,372 are strong but not enough to offset the low legacy results. The Radeon Pro 570, by contrast, has no such lagging tests in its benchmark set, which includes only Geekbench Metal, OpenCL, and Vulkan. This means the AMD part appears more consistent in its recorded data, but that consistency does not translate to real-world superiority in any shared test. For modern workloads, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER wins outright; for legacy DirectX compatibility, neither GPU posts competitive numbers, but the data does not include a direct comparison for those tests.

Architecture Differences

The Radeon Pro 570 is built on GCN 4.0 architecture with the Ellesmere chip, fabricated on a 14 nm process at GlobalFoundries. It packs 5,700 million transistors into a 232 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 24.6 million per square millimeter. The architecture supports DirectX 12 (12_0), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.3. Its shading units number 1,792, with 112 texture mapping units and 32 ROPs. There are no ray tracing or tensor cores listed, reflecting its pre-RTX era design. The GPU operates at a base clock of 1000 MHz and boost clock of 1105 MHz, with memory clocked at 1695 MHz (6.8 Gbps effective). It is an integrated graphics processor with no power connectors and a 150 W TDP.

The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER uses the Ada Lovelace architecture on the AD103 chip, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It contains 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die, with a density of 121.1 million per square millimeter. This newer architecture supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. It has 8,448 shading units, 264 TMUs, and 96 ROPs, plus 66 ray tracing cores and 264 tensor cores. Clocks are significantly higher at 2340 MHz base and 2610 MHz boost, with memory at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). The card is a triple-slot design requiring a 600 W suggested PSU and a single 16-pin power connector. The architectural gap is stark: Ada Lovelace brings hardware ray tracing, tensor acceleration, and a much denser transistor layout compared to the older GCN design.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Two benchmark tests have direct results for both GPUs. In Geekbench OpenCL, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER scores 199,267, while the Radeon Pro 570 scores 27,702. The delta is 86.1% in favor of NVIDIA, meaning the RTX card delivers over seven times the OpenCL performance. This is the most lopsided result in the comparison and reflects the massive difference in FP32 throughput, shading units, and memory bandwidth.

In Geekbench Vulkan, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER scores 53,683 versus 31,974 for the Radeon Pro 570, a 40.4% advantage. While still a clear win for NVIDIA, the margin is much smaller than in OpenCL. This suggests the Radeon Pro 570’s Vulkan implementation is relatively efficient for its era, but it still cannot match the newer card’s raw hardware capabilities. Across both tests, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER wins 2 out of 2, with no wins for the Radeon Pro 570. The only metric where the AMD card leads is the average benchmark score, which is skewed by the RTX card’s low legacy DirectX scores in the Passmark suite—none of which have a direct counterpart for the Radeon Pro 570. In any shared, modern API test, the NVIDIA card is decisively faster.
