RTX 4070 FPS Calculator
The RTX 4070 is our reference card, so every other number in the calculator is measured against it. Across our 30 games at High it averages 104 FPS at 1080p, 74 FPS at 1440p and 40 FPS at 4K. That makes 1440p at 60 FPS a safe target, with a setting or two lowered in the heaviest titles. Its 12 GB of VRAM is never a limit in our table. 4K works in lighter games and with upscaling. It is no longer sold new in most places, so check the newer RTX 5070 as well.

What CPU to pair with RTX 4070
With 74 FPS on average at 1440p, RTX 4070 can be held back by a weak processor. Pair it with a current-generation 8-core CPU, ideally one with large cache such as an X3D chip, so the card is not waiting on the CPU in esports and simulation games.

What monitor suits RTX 4070
1080p: A 1080p monitor wastes RTX 4070. Even at 360 Hz you give up image quality the card can easily afford.
1440p: A 1440p panel at 165 to 240 Hz is the sweet spot. RTX 4070 averages 74 FPS at 1440p High, enough to use a fast panel in most games.
4K: A 4K panel at 120 to 144 Hz suits RTX 4070. It averages 40 FPS at 4K High, so VRR matters, and upscaling gets the heaviest games above 60 FPS.
RTX 4070 FPS FAQ
How many FPS does the RTX 4070 get in Counter-Strike 2 at 1440p?
Our estimate for RTX 4070 in Counter-Strike 2 at 1440p High is 230 FPS. That is the highest of the 30 games in the table. Across all 30 games it averages 74 FPS at 1440p High.
Is the RTX 4070 good for 1080p gaming?
RTX 4070 averages 104 FPS at 1080p High across our 30 games. Check the table above for the games you play, since the average hides both the lightest and the heaviest titles.
Can the RTX 4070 run games at 4K?
At 4K High the RTX 4070 averages 40 FPS across our 30 games. The table shows each game, so you can see which ones clear 60 FPS and which need lower settings or upscaling.
Is 12 GB of VRAM enough on the RTX 4070?
It depends on the game and resolution. Alan Wake 2 is the most memory-hungry game in our table, and it is where 12 GB is tested hardest, at 4K. Lower texture quality if you see stutter.
