Sometimes the RTX 3070 is better than the mobile, sometimes less …

Of the equivalent DGPs, the RTX 3070 is 8-10% larger than the RTX 3070; But when configured with low TGP, the Ti variant struggles to justify its suffix.

Earlier in the year, Nvidia strengthened its offer by drawing graphics cards for its laptops. GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti mobile. We already had a vision RTX 3080 Ti Performance Thanks for the video of HardwareCanucks on some games at the end of January. The GeForce RTX 3070 TI should be reviewed by notebook check this time. In the same TGP, this reference is 8-10% higher than the RTX 3070. On the other hand, with a very limited TGP, it can position itself well behind the non-Tii version.

Compared to the GeForce RTX 3070, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti has more cores: 5888 CUDA cores vs 5120, 44 RT cores vs 40, 176 Tensor cores vs 160. There is no difference in VRAM 1/4 GB. 256-bit bus in both cases). Finally, the TGP range oscillates between 80 and 150 W.

Notebook comparison compares the performance of all three machines on the benchmark (3DMark) and games (The Witcher 3, Far Cry 5 …). The GeForce RTX3070 TI features two MSI PCs, the Vector GB66 and the Stealth GS66. The vector on the card is 150W, the stealth is 105W TGP; Boost frequencies are 1485 MHz and 1035 MHz, respectively. The third laptop is the XMG Apex 17 model, powered by TGP 145W RTX 3070.

DGP Beware

Overall, the Vector GP66 is 8-10% larger than the XMG Apex 17. On the other hand, despite its GeForce RTX 3070, the latter is more efficient than the Stealth GS66.

Note that PCs all have different processors. In principle only, the Core i7-12700H will not turn the stealth against the XMG and its Ryzen 7 5800H, even though Intel’s chip will probably have more regulated TDP.

All of these results confirm one thing: when buying a laptop, you should not stop at naming components. As the notebook check shows, the RTX 3070 equipped system is much more powerful than the PC equipped with the RTX 3070 Ti. Do not hesitate to access the source to find all the scores.
