GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 8 GB GA102 Benchmark Scores
No benchmark data available for this GPU.
About NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 8 GB GA102
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 8 GB GA102 is a GeForce 30-series card built on the Ampere architecture. The record describes a GA102 die on Samsung's 8 nm process, with 28,300 million transistors, a 628 mm² die size, and a transistor density of 45.1M / mm². It is paired with 8 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus. The FACT PACK contains no benchmark entries and no nearestRivals list, so the specification fields in the record are the only quantitative basis for this analysis.
Benchmark Performance
The benchmarks array in the record is empty. The avgBenchmarkScore field is 0, and the nearestRivals array has no entries. There are therefore no score deltas or percentage differences to report against named GPUs. The only ranking value present is percentileVsAllGpus, which is 50. Because there is no accompanying average score, that percentile cannot be used to infer a measured performance margin over any specific card.
The available performance numbers are compute- and fill-rate specifications. The GPU contains 6144 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, and 96 render output units. Its base clock is 1575 MHz and its boost clock is 1770 MHz. These clocks produce a theoretical FP32 throughput of 21.75 TFLOPS and the same 21.75 TFLOPS at FP16 with a 1:1 ratio. The texture fill rate is 339.8 GTexel/s and the pixel fill rate is 169.9 GPixel/s.
That set of figures describes a large, fast Ampere layout: high shader count, high fill rates, and a substantial 628 mm² die. What it does not provide is a frame-rate measurement. Without a game benchmark or a synthetic score, the exact placement of the RTX 3070 Ti 8 GB GA102 relative to other cards cannot be stated from this record. The 50th percentileVsAllGpus field is the only global ranking, and it is unaccompanied by any score data.
Memory Subsystem
The memory configuration is 8 GB of GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus. The memory clock is 1188 MHz, with an effective data rate of 19 Gbps, giving a bandwidth of 608.3 GB/s. This bandwidth is the memory figure that defines how much data can move between the frame buffer and the GPU core each second.
At high resolutions, the interaction between capacity and bandwidth is the main concern. The 8 GB capacity is the total buffer available for textures, geometry, and render targets. The 608.3 GB/s rate determines how quickly that buffer is filled and read. The 256-bit bus is the interface between the GDDR6X modules and the 6144 shading units. A card with this much compute throughput needs a high-bandwidth memory path, and the record lists 608.3 GB/s as that path.
However, the record contains no memory-heavy benchmark results. The specification data shows a wide 256-bit bus and high 19 Gbps effective memory speed, but it cannot demonstrate how the 8 GB capacity behaves when a specific game exceeds the buffer. The 8 GB number is the hard capacity limit in the data.
Ray Tracing and Feature Set
The Ampere feature set in the record includes 48 RT cores and 192 tensor cores. The record provides no ray tracing performance scores, so the hardware counts are the only quantitative evidence for that workload. The RT core count is 48 and the tensor core count is 192; no workload-specific ray tracing or tensor-core performance is included.
API support is listed as DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x16, and the display outputs are 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. The FP16 throughput is 21.75 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio with FP32, so half-precision compute is rated at the same throughput as full-precision compute in this record. Beyond those API and core-count facts, the pack does not quantify feature-specific performance.
How It Compares
The nearestRivals array is empty. There are no rival names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values in the FACT PACK, so no per-rival comparison can be written. The record does not support any statement like "ahead of" or "behind" a specific GPU.
Generation context is available. The predecessor field is GeForce 20, the successor field is GeForce 40, and the production status is end-of-life. The release date is 2022-10-20. That dates it after the GeForce 20 line and before the GeForce 40 line, within the GeForce 30-series. The percentileVsAllGpus value of 50 is the only ranking field, and it is not tied to any measured benchmark score.
Because there are no nearestRivals entries, the normal per-rival comparison structure is impossible here. Any competitive placement based on percentages would require the missing deltaPct values. The specification data — 21.75 TFLOPS FP32, 608.3 GB/s memory bandwidth, 48 RT cores, 192 tensor cores — is the only quantitative basis for positioning this card.
Who Should Consider It
The lack of benchmark scores means this section cannot point to specific framerates or settings. Instead, the specification sheet suggests the conditions under which this GPU makes sense. It has 21.75 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, 339.8 GTexel/s of texture throughput, 169.9 GPixel/s of pixel throughput, and 608.3 GB/s of memory bandwidth. That is a high-throughput configuration, provided the workload fits within the 8 GB GDDR6X frame buffer.
For high-resolution rendering, the bandwidth is strong at 608.3 GB/s, but the 8 GB capacity is the limiting number in the memory subsystem. Workloads that require more than 8 GB of graphics memory cannot be fully accommodated by the card; the record does not include data on how the card behaves in that case. Users targeting compute-heavy or texture-heavy work should consider the 8 GB limit alongside the high compute and fill rates.
The card is end-of-life, so it is no longer a current-production option. It was released on 2022-10-20 and belongs between GeForce 20 and GeForce 40. A builder considering this GPU today should check whether their specific applications fit within 8 GB and whether the 290 W TDP and 600 W suggested PSU are compatible with their system. The data does not support a specific resolution or settings verdict.
Power and Cooling
The power and cooling section of the record lists a TDP of 290 W, a suggested PSU of 600 W, and a power connector requirement of 1x 12-pin. The board is dual-slot and measures 267 mm / 10.5 inches in length by 112 mm / 4.4 inches in height. These numbers define the chassis and power-supply requirements.
The 290 W TDP is the thermal design power of the card. The 600 W suggested PSU is the power-supply rating in the record. The 1x 12-pin connector is the only power connector listed; no alternative connector configuration is present. The dual-slot width means the card takes dual-slot space, and the 267 mm length and 112 mm height are the clearance figures a builder needs to check.
The card is end-of-life and was released on 2022-10-20. There is no cooler detail beyond the dual-slot form factor, so noise and thermal behavior cannot be assessed from this record. What the record does state is that the board has a 290 W TDP, requires a 600 W suggested PSU, and uses a 1x 12-pin power connector.
