Performance Analysis
Dense FP16 throughput on the RTX 2070 reaches 29.9 TFLOPS whereas the RTX 4090 reaches 165.2 TFLOPS dense FP16, producing a ratio of 5.5 times higher dense FP16 capability on the newer card. The corresponding FP32 figures of 7.5 TFLOPS and 82.6 TFLOPS indicate that the RTX 4090 can sustain larger batch sizes during training or inference because its memory bandwidth of 1008 GB/s exceeds the RTX 2070 bandwidth of 448 GB/s by a factor of 2.25. When sparsity is available the RTX 4090 further increases dense FP16 throughput to 330.4 TFLOPS with sparsity, a figure absent from the RTX 2070 specification.

When to Choose the RTX 2070
The RTX 2070 becomes the preferable option in deployments limited to a 175 W TDP envelope where the 8 GB memory capacity remains adequate. Its lower power draw of 175 W compared with 450 W allows integration into systems that cannot accommodate higher thermal or electrical loads while still delivering 29.9 TFLOPS dense FP16 for lighter inference tasks.
When to Choose the RTX 4090
The RTX 4090 is the preferable option when workloads require the 24 GB memory capacity or the 82.6 TFLOPS FP32 rating to accommodate larger models or higher batch sizes. Its 1008 GB/s memory bandwidth supports the 165.2 TFLOPS dense FP16 rating for training or inference jobs that exceed the limits of the RTX 2070 specifications.
Use Cases
The RTX 4090 provides 165.2 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 24 GB memory compared with 29.9 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 8 GB on the RTX 2070.
The RTX 4090 supplies 165.2 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 1008 GB/s bandwidth enabling larger batch sizes than the 29.9 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 448 GB/s of the RTX 2070.
The RTX 4090 delivers 165.2 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 1008 GB/s bandwidth supporting higher resolution outputs than the RTX 2070 specifications allow.
The RTX 4090 provides 82.6 TFLOPS FP32 and 24 GB memory compared with 7.5 TFLOPS FP32 and 8 GB memory on the RTX 2070.

How this page is made
- Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the RTX 2070 and the RTX 4090. Dense and sparse throughput are listed separately.
- Prices and availability are live: every offer shown is an in-stock, on-demand listing from a provider we track, rechecked every minute.
- The written comparison (overview, performance notes, when to choose each card, verdict, use cases and FAQ) was drafted with an AI model from the specification table above and passed an automated check that rejects any figure not in that table. It was last generated on . It contains no prices; those are always read live.
