0 viewsUpdated 22 Apr 2026

Quick Answer

The RTX 4070 Super is 10-15% faster than the RTX 4070. If buying new, the Super is the better buy for $100 AUD more. If you already own the RTX 4070, the 15% gain is not worth the upgrade cost. Wait for the RTX 5070 instead.

Buying New: Get the Super

At $100 AUD more, the 4070 Super offers 12-15% more performance. That is excellent value for $100. The cost-per-frame is better on the Super.

Already Own RTX 4070: Skip It

Selling your 4070 (~$550 used) and buying a 4070 Super ($850) means spending $300 for a 15% upgrade. That is poor value. Wait for the RTX 5070 which should offer 30-40%+ improvement over the 4070.

Our Verdict

If buying new, always choose the RTX 4070 Super for $100 more. If upgrading from an existing RTX 4070, skip it and wait for next generation. The 15% improvement does not justify the upgrade cost.
