Benchmarks

Measured results, not specifications. Percentages are the gap to the leading product in each test.

Blender Cycles (GPU)

Blender 4.5, Blender Open Data (CC0). Median of monster + junkshop + classroom, combined samples/min.

Blender renders 3D scenes by tracing light through them, which loads every shader unit on the card at once. The score measures sustained render throughput, so it tells you what a card does in Cycles and similar renderers rather than what it does in a game. Figures come from Blender's Open Data project, which places no restriction on reuse, and we publish the median of every submission for that card on the same Blender version.

Verdict

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super

5.8 / 10 Expert Rating

The best-balanced card of the RTX 20 Super refresh; a fine budget legacy pick today but outclassed on RT and upscaling by any RTX 30-series card.

NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada Generation

7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

A dependable mainstream Ada workstation card, now best bought at a discount against the newer RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell.
