My trusty old 3060 Ti was finally showing its age, struggling to keep up with modern demands—so I made the leap to a shiny new 5070! I went with the MSI Phantom model priced at 4,799 yuan, complete with a robust 650W power supply.

The performance boost is nothing short of impressive. Running a CFD two-phase flow simulation with 1 million meshes, the 5070 delivered an 80% speed increase over the 3060 Ti—effectively doubling the performance, just as the online benchmarks promised! Out of curiosity, I also tested the 4070 Ti Super, but the difference was marginal—only about 3% faster [lol][lol]. At least the 5070 offers better value for the price [lol].

Looking back, my 3060 Ti cost me 2,650 yuan two years ago. Now, for 4,799 yuan, I’ve nearly doubled my performance—talk about a worthwhile upgrade!
I’ve been eyeing the 5070 for a while now, and your review definitely swayed me—it sounds like it’s worth the upgrade, especially for heavy workloads. That 80% improvement in your CFD test is insane; I can only imagine how much time that saves in professional settings.
I’m really considering upgrading after reading this. The 80% speed boost in that CFD simulation sounds amazing, but I’m still wondering if the 5070’s gains are worth it compared to the 4070 Ti Super for more casual gaming.
Absolutely! While the 5070 shines in specific workloads like your CFD simulation, for more casual gaming, the 4070 Ti Super is still plenty powerful and might save you some money. If gaming is your main focus, both cards deliver smooth experiences, so it comes down to budget. Either way, you won’t be disappointed—both GPUs are top-tier! Thanks for the great question.
I’m really impressed by the 5070’s performance jump compared to the 4070 Ti Super, especially in those heavy workloads like your CFD simulation. It sounds like a solid upgrade if you’re pushing your GPU to its limits, though I wonder how it performs in less intensive tasks.
