Here we present frame rate figures for each graphics card, averaged across all 12 games on test today. These figures can disguise significant variations in performance from game to game, but provide a useful overview of the sort of performance you can expect at each resolution tested.

Overall then, across the 12 games tested, the RTX 4070 Ti Super averaged 104FPS at 1440p. That makes it 7% faster on average compared to the RTX 4070 Ti, and 7% slower than AMD's RX 7900 XT. It also comes in 14% behind the RTX 4080 so there's still a decently-sized gap between these AD103 GPUs.

Up at 4K we do see the benefits of the wider memory bus, and the Ti Super comes in 8% faster than the original 4070 Ti, while it's still 7% slower than the RX 7900 XT and 15% behind the RTX 4080. As a reminder – and if you missed it, be sure to check out page four of this review –  Nvidia is suggesting that performance of this Ventus card is about 5% below their expectations, but we can only go on the numbers we have seen and tested for ourselves so far.
