GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture with a 5 nm process from TSMC, housing 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die. It operates with a base clock of 2340 MHz and a boost clock of 2610 MHz, with memory running at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). The 16 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus provides 672.3 GB/s of bandwidth, which is critical for handling high-resolution textures and complex scenes without stuttering.

In Doom, the GPU's role is evident when comparing the 4K results across settings. At 4K Low, the combo achieves 127.3 FPS, but this drops to 111.2 FPS on Medium, 94.8 FPS on High, and 80.3 FPS on Ultra. The gradual decline indicates that the GPU is the primary driver of performance at this resolution, as the CPU has enough headroom to feed the graphics card even at lower settings. The 16 GB VRAM capacity is not a limiting factor here, as the game's highest settings do not appear to exceed the available memory.

The GPU's compute capabilities are substantial, with 8448 shading units, 264 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. It also features 66 RT cores and 264 tensor cores, which are not heavily utilized in Doom (a 2016 title) but provide headroom for other workloads. The texture rate of 689.0 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 250.6 GPixel/s are high enough to sustain the frame rates seen in the measured data, particularly at 1440p where the GPU is still the dominant factor.

The GPU's performance relative to its nearest rivals shows it is a strong contender. With an average benchmark score of 48704, it slightly trails the NVIDIA CMP 50HX (49071) by 0.7% but outperforms the RTX A2000 (47915) by 1.6% and the RTX A1000 Mobile (47743) by 2.0%. This indicates that the 4070 Ti SUPER is well-positioned among high-end graphics cards, and its 86th percentile ranking confirms its capability for demanding titles.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers exceptional results: 342.8 FPS on Low, 320.3 FPS on Medium, 272.9 FPS on High, and 222.2 FPS on Ultra. These figures are all well above the 144 Hz refresh rate common in gaming monitors, making the system ideal for competitive play where every frame counts.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain high but show a more pronounced gap between settings. Low settings produce 241.9 FPS, Medium drops to 211.2 FPS, High reaches 177.2 FPS, and Ultra falls to 142.9 FPS. The 1440p Ultra result is still above 140 FPS, which is sufficient for most high-refresh-rate displays, though the drop from Low to Ultra is 41%, indicating a significant GPU workload increase.

At 3840x2160, the performance becomes more demanding. Low settings yield 127.3 FPS, Medium drops to 111.2 FPS, High achieves 94.8 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 80.3 FPS. These 4K results are playable, but the Ultra preset dips below the 90 FPS mark, which may be noticeable to users with high-refresh-rate 4K monitors. The pattern across all resolutions shows that the Low-to-Ultra scaling is consistent, with each step up in settings costing roughly 10-15% of performance.

The data reveals that the combo is most comfortable at 1080p, where even Ultra settings exceed 220 FPS. At 1440p, the system remains capable, but the Ultra preset requires a compromise if users want to maintain frame rates above 144 FPS. At 4K, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor, as the frame rates scale almost linearly with the graphics workload.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 is a Zen 3 architecture processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, manufactured on a 7 nm process by TSMC. It has a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The CPU supports DDR4 memory in a dual-channel configuration, providing 51.2 GB/s of bandwidth, and features 16 MB of L3 cache.

In Doom, the CPU's role is primarily to feed the GPU with enough data to maintain high frame rates. The CPU's benchmark scores are strong: it achieves 20655 in Cinebench R23 multicore and 2916 in single-core, with a 3DMark single-thread score of 901. These numbers indicate that the CPU can handle the game's physics and AI processing without becoming a bottleneck, especially at lower resolutions where the GPU is less taxed.

The CPU's performance relative to its nearest rivals is extremely tight. It scores 27220 on average, which is only 0.7% higher than the Intel Core i9-9900K (27043) and 0.8% higher than the Intel Core i7-12700H (27006). The AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 (26909) trails by 1.2%. This close grouping suggests that the Ryzen 7 5700 is not the differentiating factor in this combo's performance; instead, it provides a solid foundation that allows the GPU to shine.

At 1080p, the CPU's influence is minimal because the GPU is the primary bottleneck. However, at 4K, the CPU has more room to operate, as the GPU becomes the limiting factor. The CPU's 84th percentile ranking indicates it is a capable processor, but the measured FPS data shows that the GPU is what drives the system's overall performance in Doom.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends on the user's resolution and refresh rate priorities. At 1080p, the Ultra preset (222.2 FPS) is recommended for the best visual quality without sacrificing frame rates, as it still exceeds 220 FPS. For users with 240 Hz monitors, the High preset (272.9 FPS) offers a better balance, but Ultra remains viable.

At 1440p, the High preset (177.2 FPS) provides the best experience for most users, as it delivers frame rates above 170 FPS while maintaining good visual fidelity. The Ultra preset (142.9 FPS) is still playable, but the drop below 144 FPS may be noticeable on high-refresh-rate displays. For competitive play, the Medium preset (211.2 FPS) is a strong choice, offering near-competitive frame rates with slightly reduced visuals.

At 4K, the Medium preset (111.2 FPS) is the recommended sweet spot, as it provides a 17% performance boost over High (94.8 FPS) while maintaining acceptable visual quality. The Low preset (127.3 FPS) is viable for users who prioritize frame rates above 120 FPS, but the visual degradation may be too severe for some. The Ultra preset (80.3 FPS) is only recommended for users with 60 Hz displays, as the frame rate is below the threshold for smooth motion on high-refresh-rate monitors.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals a clear pattern of GPU limitation. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 272.9 at 1080p to 177.2 at 1440p (a 35% decrease) and then to 94.8 at 4K (a further 46% decrease from 1440p). This scaling is consistent with the GPU being the primary bottleneck, as the CPU has sufficient headroom to keep up with the increasing pixel workload.

The scaling is more pronounced at Ultra settings: 222.2 FPS at 1080p drops to 142.9 FPS at 1440p (a 36% decrease) and then to 80.3 FPS at 4K (a 44% decrease from 1440p). This suggests that the Ultra preset places a heavier load on the GPU's shading and texture units, which is expected given the higher rendering quality.

The Low settings show a slightly different pattern: 342.8 FPS at 1080p drops to 241.9 FPS at 1440p (a 29% decrease) and then to 127.3 FPS at 4K (a 47% decrease from 1440p). The smaller drop from 1080p to 1440p at Low settings indicates that the CPU is more involved at lower graphics loads, but the 4K result still shows the GPU taking over as the limiting factor.

This scaling behavior implies that the combo is well-balanced for 1080p and 1440p gaming, where the CPU and GPU work together effectively. At 4K, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck, and users should adjust their settings accordingly to maintain target frame rates. The data suggests that the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is best utilized at 1440p, where it delivers high frame rates without pushing the GPU to its absolute limits.
