The Verdict

The data tells a clear but nuanced story. The RTX 5070 Mobile delivers far higher recorded benchmark scores, with an average of 29928 versus 2690 for the RTX 5070 SUPER. The Mobile part ranks at the 75th percentile among all GPUs in the database, while the SUPER ranks at the 18th percentile. However, the SUPER has only one recorded test (3DMark Steel Nomad DX12), which may not represent its full capabilities.

For users prioritizing raw compute and rendering performance across diverse workloads, the RTX 5070 Mobile is the clear choice based on available measurements. Its PassMark G3D score of 20355 and Geekbench OpenCL score of 122238 demonstrate strong general-purpose compute. The SUPER's single 2690 Steel Nomad score suggests it may be optimized for a different workload profile, but the lack of comparable test data makes a full verdict difficult.

The RTX 5070 SUPER wins decisively on specifications: 6400 shading units versus 4608, 50 RT cores versus 36, 200 tensor cores versus 144, and 18 GB memory versus 8 GB. It also delivers 32.15 TFLOPS FP32 versus 13.13 TFLOPS. These are massive architectural advantages. The recorded benchmark gap likely reflects the different test suites available rather than true performance parity.

The verdict: pick the RTX 5070 Mobile if the goal is proven performance across the database's benchmark suite. Pick the RTX 5070 SUPER if the specification sheet matters more, particularly for memory capacity, bandwidth, and raw compute throughput, and if the 3DMark Steel Nomad workload is representative of the intended use case.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no overlapping benchmark tests between the two GPUs. The RTX 5070 Mobile has nine recorded scores across Geekbench and Passmark suites. The RTX 5070 SUPER has exactly one recorded score in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12.

The RTX 5070 Mobile's results span multiple workloads. Its Geekbench OpenCL score is 122238 and Vulkan is 116960. Passmark scores include 20355 for G3D, 8279 for GPU compute, 896 for G2D, 214 for DirectX 9, 192 for DirectX 11, 129 for DirectX 10, and 93 for DirectX 12.

The RTX 5070 SUPER's 2690 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 cannot be directly mapped to any of those tests. The Mobile GPU's Passmark DirectX 12 score of 93 is the closest comparable metric, but the different test methodologies prevent meaningful side-by-side comparison.

The average benchmark score gap is stark: 29928 versus 2690. This is an 11.1x difference in favor of the Mobile part. However, the Mobile GPU's average is computed from nine diverse tests, while the SUPER's average comes from a single test. The percentile rankings reflect this: 75th versus 18th.

The nearest rival data also diverges sharply. The RTX 5070 Mobile competes with desktop GPUs like the RTX 3070 Ti (delta -0.1%), RTX 2080 Ti (delta +0.5%), RX 6800 (delta -0.6%), and RX 6700 (delta -1.7%). The RTX 5070 SUPER's nearest rivals are lower-tier parts: Quadro K1100M (delta +1%), GT 1030 (delta +1.1%), Arc Pro B50 (delta +1.1%), and GT 440 (delta +1.7%).

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ across nearly every hardware specification in the database.

Chip and die: The Mobile uses GB206 with 21,900 million transistors on a 181 mm² die. The SUPER uses GB205 with 31,100 million transistors on a 263 mm² die. Transistor density is similar: 121.0M per mm² for the Mobile versus 118.3M per mm² for the SUPER.

Architecture Differences

Both GPUs share the Blackwell 2.0 architecture, the GeForce 50-series family, and NVIDIA as manufacturer. Both use a 5 nm TSMC process. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both use PCIe 5.0 x16.

The differences in architecture implementation are substantial. The SUPER's larger die (263 mm² versus 181 mm²) and higher transistor count (31,100 million versus 21,900 million) provide the physical foundation for its higher compute unit counts. The SUPER has 39% more shading units, 39% more TMUs, 67% more ROPs, 39% more RT cores, and 39% more tensor cores than the Mobile.

The clock architecture differs fundamentally. The SUPER's base clock of 2325 MHz is 2.56x higher than the Mobile's 907 MHz. The boost clock of 2512 MHz is 1.76x higher than the Mobile's 1425 MHz. These clock advantages compound with the extra compute units to produce the SUPER's 2.45x higher FP32 throughput (32.15 versus 13.13 TFLOPS).

Memory architecture is another major divergence. The SUPER's 192-bit bus provides 672.0 GB/s bandwidth versus 384.0 GB/s for the Mobile's 128-bit bus. The 18 GB capacity versus 8 GB represents a 2.25x increase. The effective memory clock also differs: 28 Gbps versus 24 Gbps.

The power architecture reflects these differences. The SUPER's 275 W TDP is 5.5x the Mobile's 50 W. The Mobile's IGP form factor and lack of power connectors indicate an integrated design for portable devices. The SUPER's dual-slot design with a 16-pin connector and discrete dimensions (245 mm length) targets desktop installations.

The transistor density is nearly identical (121.0M versus 118.3M per mm²), indicating both chips use comparable design density on the same process node. The performance differences come from scale and clock speed, not density improvements.

The release cadence also differs: the Mobile launched earlier in 2025 and belongs to the GeForce 50 Mobile generation with a predecessor in the GeForce 40 Mobile line. The SUPER launched later in 2025 and belongs to the base GeForce 50 generation with no predecessor recorded.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 5070 Mobile wins on proven benchmark performance. Its average benchmark score of 29928 places it at the 75th percentile of all GPUs. It competes directly with desktop parts like the RTX 3070 Ti (within 0.1%) and RTX 2080 Ti (ahead by 0.5%). Its Passmark G3D score of 20355 and Geekbench OpenCL score of 122238 indicate strong general-purpose compute. Its 50 W TDP and IGP form factor make it suitable for power-constrained portable systems. The nine recorded benchmark scores provide broad coverage across DirectX 9 through 12, OpenCL, Vulkan, and compute workloads.

The RTX 5070 SUPER wins on raw specification sheet. It offers 18 GB of GDDR7 memory, which is 2.25x the Mobile's capacity. Its 672.0 GB/s bandwidth is 75% higher. Its 32.15 TFLOPS FP32 throughput is 2.45x higher. Its 6400 shading units, 50 RT cores, and 200 tensor cores all exceed the Mobile's counts by roughly 39%. The 2325 MHz base clock and 2512 MHz boost clock are far above the Mobile's 907 MHz and 1425 MHz. The SUPER's 201.0 GPixel/s pixel rate and 502.4 GTexel/s texture rate are 2.94x and 2.45x higher respectively.

Use-case split based on the data: For applications that rely on the database's recorded benchmark suite, including Geekbench OpenCL/Vulkan and Passmark DirectX/Compute tests, the RTX 5070 Mobile delivers proven results. Its 75th percentile ranking and competitive positioning against RTX 3070 Ti and RX 6800 class GPUs indicate solid real-world performance in those measured workloads.

For applications that demand maximum memory capacity, memory bandwidth, and raw compute throughput, the RTX 5070 SUPER's specifications dominate. The 18 GB memory pool suits workloads with large data sets. The 672.0 GB/s bandwidth supports high-resolution textures and large frame buffers. The 32.15 TFLOPS FP32 throughput provides headroom for compute-heavy tasks.

The SUPER's single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2690 indicates it does run that specific modern DirectX 12 workload, but the database lacks additional tests to characterize its broader performance. The Mobile GPU has no 3DMark Steel Nomad score, so the two cannot be compared on that specific test.

The percentile difference (75th versus 18th) reflects the available data. The Mobile's percentile is based on nine tests. The SUPER's is based on one. The SUPER's nearest rivals (GT 1030, GT 440, Quadro K1100M) all score within 1.7% of its single test, which suggests the Steel Nomad workload may not be representative of the SUPER's actual capabilities given its far higher specifications.

The practical recommendation from the data: choose the Mobile for measured, multi-workload performance in portable form factors. Choose the SUPER for maximum specifications, memory capacity, bandwidth, and compute throughput in a desktop configuration.
