Verdict
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX wins in 10 out of 10 games
At CheckFPS we measured both cards across 10 popular games at 1080p, 1440p and 4K on a reference CPU. The RX 7900 XTX comes out ahead by around 18% more FPS on average, and that lead holds up as resolution climbs. That's why we recommend it as the most balanced option for gaming; still, if the price gap is wide, the other card remains a sensible buy.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions when comparing the RX 7900 XTX with the RTX 4070 Ti Super.
Which is better, the RX 7900 XTX or the RTX 4070 Ti Super?
On average at 1080p, the RX 7900 XTX is 18% faster than the RTX 4070 Ti Super. The best one for you depends on your resolution, budget and whether you prioritise ray tracing or price.
Which is better at 4K?
At 4K Ultra, the RX 7900 XTX averages 64 FPS and the RTX 4070 Ti Super 50 FPS across the most popular games. For smooth 4K, enabling upscaling (DLSS/FSR) helps on both.
Is it worth paying more for the faster one?
At 1080p or 1440p the FPS gap may not justify the extra cost; at 4K or with ray tracing the faster card matters more. Check the by-resolution table to decide.
Which has better ray tracing and upscaling?
AI upscaling (DLSS on NVIDIA, FSR on AMD, XeSS on Intel) raises FPS on both; for ray tracing, GeForce RTX cards usually lead. See each card’s support above.
How big is the FPS difference between them?
On average across top games, the gap is around 18% at 1080p. At higher resolutions (1440p and 4K) the relative difference usually stays similar.
7900 XTX vs 4070 Ti Super: what's the real difference?
In performance, the RX 7900 XTX beats the RTX 4070 Ti Super by around 18% more FPS on average at 1080p — the gap shifts a bit by resolution, as shown in the table above. If you're torn between the 7900 XTX and the 4070 Ti Super on price, the price and $/FPS section above can help you decide.
