GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER brings 12 GB of GDDR6X memory across a 192-bit bus, yielding 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. Its AD104 chip, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC, contains 35,800 million transistors within a 294 mm² die. The GPU operates with a base clock of 1980 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz, with memory running at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). These specifications translate into 35.48 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, 224 texture mapping units, and 80 raster output units.

In Greedfall, the GPU's role becomes increasingly pronounced as resolution climbs. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo reaches 276 FPS average, a figure that far exceeds what the CPU alone could sustain in most scenarios. The RTX 4070 SUPER's pixel rate of 198.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 554.4 GTexel/s provide ample fill-rate headroom for the game's environments and character models. The 12 GB VRAM capacity proves sufficient even at 4K Ultra, where the average drops to 52 FPS — a setting that stresses memory bandwidth more than capacity, given the game's 2019 vintage.

The GPU's benchmark percentile of 83 versus all GPUs positions it slightly above the median high-end tier. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB, scores 43,262 versus the RTX 4070 SUPER's 43,223 average, a delta of -0.1%, indicating near-identical aggregate compute performance despite the workstation card's larger memory pool. The RTX 5050 Mobile and RTX 4090 Mobile also sit within 1% of this desktop card's average benchmark score, underscoring how mobile parts have closed the gap in raw compute while the desktop card retains advantages in sustained power delivery and thermal headroom.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals a clear GPU-bound trajectory at higher resolutions, with the CPU's influence diminishing as pixel count increases. At Low settings, the combo delivers 276 FPS at 1080p, 192 FPS at 1440p, and 114 FPS at 4K — a drop of 30.4% from 1080p to 1440p and a further 40.6% from 1440p to 4K. This steep decline indicates the GPU is the limiting factor at 4K even on Low settings, as the CPU's 16 threads have ample headroom at the lower resolution.

At High settings, the scaling follows a similar pattern: 197 FPS at 1080p, 137 FPS at 1440p (a 30.5% reduction), and 82 FPS at 4K (a 40.1% reduction from 1440p). The consistency of these percentage drops across Low and High presets suggests the game's rendering pipeline scales predictably with resolution, with the RTX 4070 SUPER's 192-bit memory bus and 504.2 GB/s bandwidth becoming the primary constraint at 4K.

Ultra settings amplify the resolution penalty. The combo achieves 126 FPS at 1080p, 87 FPS at 1440p, and 52 FPS at 4K. The 4K figure represents only 41.3% of the 1080p result, showing that Ultra settings at 4K push the GPU to its limits. Notably, the gap between 1080p and 1440p at Ultra (a 31.0% drop) is nearly identical to the Low setting's drop, suggesting the CPU maintains consistent performance headroom across presets while the GPU's workload scales with both resolution and quality.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its strongest results. Low settings produce an average of 276 FPS, with no minimum or maximum reported. Medium settings yield 217 FPS average, with a minimum of 185 FPS and maximum of 250 FPS. High settings achieve 197 FPS average, while Ultra drops to 126 FPS average. The spread from Low to Ultra represents a 54.3% reduction, indicating that quality presets significantly impact frame rates even at the lowest resolution.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance scales as expected. Low settings average 192 FPS, Medium averages 151 FPS with a minimum of 128 FPS and maximum of 173 FPS, High averages 137 FPS, and Ultra averages 87 FPS. The Medium preset's minimum of 128 FPS remains comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold, suggesting smooth gameplay even during demanding scenes. The Ultra preset at 1440p delivers 87 FPS average, which still provides a responsive experience for most action RPG players.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the dominant constraint. Low settings average 114 FPS, Medium averages 90 FPS with a minimum of 76 FPS and maximum of 103 FPS, High averages 82 FPS, and Ultra averages 52 FPS. The Medium preset's minimum of 76 FPS indicates that even in the most demanding moments, the system avoids dropping below playable frame rates. The Ultra preset's 52 FPS average sits just below the 60 FPS target, suggesting players seeking 4K Ultra may need to accept some compromises or rely on adaptive sync technologies.

The measured data shows a consistent pattern: Medium settings provide the best balance of frame rate stability across all resolutions, with the minimum FPS figures only reported for Medium presets. This suggests the game's Medium preset avoids the extreme draw calls and shader complexity that can cause frame-time spikes at High and Ultra settings.
