GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture using the AD103 chip at a 5 nm process node. 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). These clocks allow the GPU to execute 44.10 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, which directly influences how quickly the card can process Rust's rendering workloads.

The 16 GB of GDDR6X memory is a defining characteristic of this card, providing 672.3 GB/s of bandwidth across a 256-bit bus. In Rust, where large base structures and expansive world rendering demand significant texture memory, this capacity prevents VRAM bottlenecks at higher resolutions. The 8448 shading units and 264 texture mapping units give the card substantial fill-rate capability, with a pixel rate of 250.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 689.0 GTexel/s.

The GPU's 66 ray tracing cores and 264 tensor cores support modern rendering features, though Rust's primary workload remains traditional rasterization. The card's 96 ROPs handle final pixel output, which becomes more critical at 4K resolution where pixel throughput demands increase. The 285 W TDP and triple-slot cooler design indicate a high-power component, requiring a 600 W recommended PSU and 1x 16-pin power connector.

In the benchmark data, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER shows strength in compute-heavy tests, scoring 31811 in Passmark G3D and 18372 in Passmark GPU Compute. Its performance in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 (5569) reflects modern API efficiency. The GPU ranks at the 86th percentile of all GPUs, and its average benchmark score of 48704 places it within 0.7% of the NVIDIA CMP 50HX (49071) and 2% above the NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile (47743).

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals clear scaling patterns as resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 152.2 at 1080p to 106.7 at 1440p, then further to 63.9 at 4K. This represents a 58% reduction from 1080p to 4K, indicating that the GPU becomes progressively more constrained at higher pixel counts.

The Low settings preset shows a different scaling profile. At 1080p, the system achieves 208.9 FPS, which drops to 181.5 at 1440p and 106.6 at 4K. The 1440p to 4K drop is particularly steep at 74.9 FPS, suggesting that even at Low settings, the 4K resolution pushes the GPU hard. This pattern indicates that at lower settings, the CPU has more headroom to feed frames, and the bottleneck shifts more decisively to the GPU at 4K.

Ultra settings exhibit the most dramatic scaling. From 116.4 FPS at 1080p, performance falls to 81.2 at 1440p and 46.7 at 4K. The 4K Ultra result drops below 60 FPS, which is notable for a high-end GPU. This suggests that Rust's Ultra preset at 4K places extreme demands on the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, likely due to heavy shading and texture work that stresses the GPU's compute and memory subsystems.

Medium settings follow the expected pattern: 180.5 FPS at 1080p, 125.9 at 1440p, and 75.8 at 4K. The scaling factor from 1080p to 4K is 0.42, meaning 4K performance is roughly 42% of 1080p performance. This ratio is consistent across most settings, indicating that resolution scaling is primarily GPU-limited in this configuration.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the system demonstrates strong performance across all settings. Low settings deliver 208.9 FPS, Medium achieves 180.5 FPS, High reaches 152.2 FPS, and Ultra produces 116.4 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is 92.5 FPS, showing that settings have a substantial impact even at this resolution. The data indicates that 1080p is well within the capability of this combo, with even Ultra settings maintaining frame rates above 100 FPS.

At 2560x1440, performance remains solid but shows more variation. Low settings produce 181.5 FPS, Medium delivers 125.9 FPS, High reaches 106.7 FPS, and Ultra drops to 81.2 FPS. The 1440p results suggest that High and Ultra settings still provide smooth gameplay, though the margin between settings widens compared to 1080p. The drop from Medium to High at 1440p is 19.2 FPS, while the drop from High to Ultra is 25.5 FPS, indicating that Ultra imposes a significant additional load.

At 3840x2160, the performance picture changes notably. Low settings achieve 106.6 FPS, Medium reaches 75.8 FPS, High produces 63.9 FPS, and Ultra falls to 46.7 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is the only sub-60 FPS measurement in the entire dataset, highlighting that this resolution and setting combination pushes the hardware to its limits. The progression from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a consistent decline: 30.8 FPS from Low to Medium, 11.9 FPS from Medium to High, and 17.2 FPS from High to Ultra.

Comparing across resolutions, the 4K Ultra result (46.7 FPS) is 60% lower than the 1080p Ultra result (116.4 FPS). Similarly, 4K High (63.9 FPS) is 58% lower than 1080p High (152.2 FPS). These consistent percentage drops reinforce that resolution scaling is a dominant factor in determining final frame rates.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER ranks 176th out of 1717 tested combinations in Rust, placing it in the 89.8th percentile of all configurations. This high ranking reflects the strength of both components working together, though it is not at the absolute top tier of tested systems.

The CPU contributes to this ranking through its strong multi-threaded performance. With 8 cores and 16 threads based on Zen 3 architecture, the Ryzen 7 5800XT achieves a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 23794 and a Passmark multithread score of 27988. Its single-thread performance is also solid, with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3359. The CPU's 86th percentile ranking among all CPUs indicates it sits above the vast majority of processors.

The GPU's contribution is equally significant. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER's 86th percentile ranking among GPUs, combined with its 16 GB VRAM capacity, allows it to handle Rust's demanding rendering workloads effectively. The GPU's nearest rivals in benchmark scores include the NVIDIA CMP 50HX (49071, 0.7% higher) and the Intel Arc A550M (49737, 2.1% higher), with the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER outperforming the NVIDIA RTX A2000 (47915) by 1.6% and the NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile (47743) by 2%.

The 176th rank out of 1717 combos suggests that while this pairing is strong, there are 175 configurations that deliver better Rust performance. This is expected given that newer CPU generations and higher-end GPUs exist in the test pool. However, the measured FPS data shows that this combo delivers excellent real-world performance, particularly at 1080p and 1440p, with 4K requiring settings adjustments to maintain high frame rates.

The data indicates that the combo is well-balanced, with neither component severely bottlenecking the other in most scenarios. The strong scaling from 1080p to 1440p and the more pronounced drop at 4K suggest that the GPU becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions, while the CPU provides adequate frame generation at lower resolutions. This balance contributes to the combo's strong overall ranking and its ability to deliver playable frame rates across a wide range of settings and resolutions.
