Valorant benchmark on GTX 1070: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Valorant FPS with a GTX 1070 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 131FPS min 79Excellent | 88FPS min 63Good | 37FPS min 33Acceptable |
| High | 171FPS min 103Excellent | 115FPS min 82Good | 48FPS min 42Acceptable |
| Medium | 223FPS min 135Excellent | 150FPS min 107Excellent | 63FPS min 56Good |
| Low | 289FPS min 174Excellent | 194FPS min 138Excellent | 81FPS min 71Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 46% | CPU 27% | GPU 41% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 1070. There is 22% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Valorant at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the GTX 1070 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 131 | 164 | 190 |
| 1440p | 88 | 119 | 145 |
| 4K | 37 | 54 | 68 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1070 has no dedicated hardware for it, so it is an option best left disabled.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the GTX 1070 has headroom to spare in Valorant: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the GTX 1070 Enough for Valorant?
The GTX 1070 delivers 131 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Valorant. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 88 FPS and at 4K 37 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
