The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER’s average benchmark score of 31087 places it in the upper quartile of all GPUs, with a percentile of 76. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA Quadro M5000, posts an average score of 31206, which is 0.4% higher. The NVIDIA GRID M60-1Q scores 31220, also 0.4% above the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell scores 31532, 1.4% higher, and the NVIDIA TITAN RTX scores 31676, 1.9% higher. These margins are narrow, indicating that the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER sits just below a cluster of professional and high-end consumer cards in aggregate performance.

In individual tests, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER shows a wide range of results. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 5569, a modern rasterization workload. Geekbench OpenCL returns 199267, while Geekbench Vulkan returns 53683. Passmark scores vary by API: DirectX 10 posts 181, DirectX 11 posts 278, DirectX 12 posts 119, and DirectX 9 posts 360. The Passmark G2D score is 1225, which reflects 2D desktop tasks, while the Passmark G3D score is 31811, a more representative gaming metric. The Passmark GPU compute score is 18372, covering general compute workloads. These numbers show that the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER excels in compute and high-level 3D tasks, but the older DirectX 9 and DirectX 10 scores are lower in absolute terms, which is expected given the API’s age and the card’s architecture focus.

The Ryzen Z2 GPU has no benchmark records in the database, so no direct comparison of scores is possible. Its percentile of 50 indicates it sits at the median of all GPUs, but without an average score or rival list, the performance context is limited. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER’s lowest Passmark score, DirectX 12 at 119, still reflects a modern workload, and its highest, G3D at 31811, shows strong rasterization capability. The delta percentages against nearest rivals range from -0.4% to -1.9%, meaning the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is slightly behind all four listed cards, but the differences are within 2%, so the card clusters tightly with its peers. No such data exists for the Ryzen Z2 GPU, so the head-to-head section must be read as a one-sided record.
