Mobile RTX 4070 & RTX 4080 Vs Desktop RTX 4070 - DON'T buy a 4070 gaming Laptop!

In this video I compare, across 11 games, the performance of the laptop RTX 4070 and RTX 4080 against a desktop RTX 4070.
This will give us an idea on how the supposed same GPU class for a laptop compares to its desktop counterpart.
Is Nvidia pulling the wool over our eyes with their naming scheme?

I made an averaging error in my final chart. It should read mobile 4080 98fps, desktop 4070 97fps and laptop 4070 60 fps

[@rossdev]

Nice comparison between the three cards! I think the main problem consumers have is the price gulf between 4070 and 4080, the latter is just too expensive. I have both mobile gpus in different laptops (Legion 7i and Acer Predator Triton 14). The price difference between both was considerable, it's a real pity there isn't any more competition in the GPU space to keep pricing more competitive.

[@OWNORDISOWN]

Thanks! I agree, we need more competition. Nvidia is just getting greedy. The 4090 is crazy expensive

In Canada 4080 laptop is too expensive (around 1000-2000$CAD more than 4070 while 4070 only by 200-300$ CAD costs more than 4060)😢 Considering 4070 almost has 50% more cores than 4060, TGP might be a issue. If both were truly 140 watts 4070 could be a better card :D

Yeah Nvidia really needs to overhaul their naming scheme for their Mobile GPUs because as JayzTwoCents and Jarrod's Tech have said there is a huge difference between a laptop GPU and a desktop GPU. With the laptop RTX 3080 it performs like a desktop 3060 Ti. The Laptop 4090 performs like an RTX 3090. Makes me wonder if the laptops that were tested in Hogwarts Legacy would have faired better if they had a r9 7945HX3D chip in it instead of the 13900HX.

[@TabalugaDragon]

laptop 3080 ti performs between desktop 3070 and 3070 ti actually, in well-cooled laptops that is. It would only perform like a 3060 ti in thin and lights like Razer Blade 14. I've compared the FPS myself.

[@Fender178]

@@TabalugaDragon I was talking about the Laptop 3080 not 3080 Ti which does perform similar to a desktop 3060 Ti. The Laptop 3080 Ti you are correct that it does perform around a RTX 3070.

@@Fender178 Then that would be desktop 3070 ti level, because laptop 3070 ti already is just 5% slower than the desktop 3070 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpOvgGSaet6Nrc0&pp=gAQB and 3080m is 5-10% faster than that. 3080 ti laptop version performs closer to 3070 ti than to normal 3070.

[@OWNORDISOWN]

Yes, Nvidia should change the names of their laptop GPUs, it just misleads everyone. As for the 7945HX, in my review of the Asus Rog strix scar 17 that had the 7945HX and rtx 4080 the 1% low was 7fps.

[@OWNORDISOWN]

The step up to a 4090 is quite a bit. Wouldn't the 4080 accelerate your software nearly as well? I would get the 4080 and use the money saved to get the extra RAM if you find you are getting close to using the 32GB up.

[@lillyskye831]

@@OWNORDISOWN thanks for the quick reply! Definitely agree on spending money on extra RAM and maybe that's where the perfomance boost lies. Honestly, I don't know. I've spent hours researching but most of what I find is gamer-focused. And in my design world, I'm a PC-user minority LOL. One tech friend said the 4090 is a negligible increase in performance, but another tech said the opposite, that there's a very noticeable difference in multitasking with the 4090's 16GB. Hoping for some Black Friday deals because the prices are insanely crazy across the board. *sigh*

Do you think Nvidia has the mobile GPU naming scheme wrong? Should they be pushing more watts to the GPU if the cooling is sufficient?

[@cameronbosch1213]

Oh, they have it wrong all right, but they did it on purpose. While the GTX 10 and RTX 20 series were close to desktop levels of performance (previous generations had the M suffix on the laptop GPUs), with RTX 30 series, that's no longer the case, and the RTX 4070 is such a rip off compared to even the desktop 4070, that the laptop 4070 may as well be a 4060 Ti. I really wish AMD put out a Radeon RX 7800M GPU, becuase the laptop I'm getting maxes out at a 7700S because AMD has nothing with more than 8 GB of vRAM...

agreed, I think governments need to stop this dishonest naming. They want 70, 80 and 90 in the name? Fine, then they'd better add some letter to it like they did during M are to clearly diffirentiate them from the desktop GPUs, OR just call them honestly, as these are still basically desktop GPUs(almost the same specs) but named 1 tier higher than what they actually are.

[@allstargaming2500]

RTX 4070 would've been an excellent card if it was priced at $450 and the Ti version should be $100 with 16GB and the 4080 should have 20GB and a bigger bandwidth for that premium $1200 price Greedyvidia asks for. Even the RTX 4080 struggles to handle ray tracing at 4K so as to make the 4090 the best one for your money.

[@Dampfheini]

Thank you very much for the comparison! I LOVE my Laptop 4080! Of course it is not as strong as the desktop 4080 but based on the game I play it even can keep up with my desktop RX 6900XT which is great and exceeded my expectations! And regarding that performance it even stays quite (and) cool! My gaming laptop is an Aorus 17H with I7 13700H and 32 GB DDR5 5200Mhz RAM (upgraded)! Its a beast of a machine for "just" 2300 EUR! But what I don't get is why the 13700H is so much faster (like Ryzen 5900X desktop) than my not that much older I7 11800H. Its about 40 to even 50% difference in speed! 😮

*chef's kiss As close to a perfect video as possible stephen. An absolute banger, you basically spelt out all of my frustrations. I will just say, the 4070ti is like 15% faster than the 4070. So if the 4080m is 5% ahead of the 4070, its not bad since it has similar specs to the 4070ti. But what is bad and you alluded to it, is the 4080's dynamic boost, meaning it probably never uses the 175w it has. Meaning its really closer to a 160w gpu. Infact this reminds me of the 3070ti vs 3080Ti on laptops. 3080ti has more cores but isn't much faster due to lower clocks. Same thing here. 4080m has too many cores for its supposed 175w tdp. Had nvidia given it the desktop 4070 core count they can easily make it be very close to desktop 4070 even at 150w. 5888 vs 7420 is a massive difference. I am so glad you call out nvidia's nerf to tdp. It infuriates me channels like HUB and Jarrod's tech don't point this out. Could you also do a future test with bypassing dynamic boost using the 528.49 driver trick? Use that and compare the results. My 3070ti can't realistically go beyond 130w even though its the 150w variant.

I repasted and lifted it up and cleaned it so now it pushes 150w and is 70-75 degrees. Even after hours of gaming. Thats with a low end thermal paste. Something like PTM7950 will go even better

[@DavidNgo86]

That's the 4080 mobile

[@Britishblue.]

Just got a 4070 laptop a few days ago (legion slim 5). Crazy that my 3060 with 12gb vram is outperforming it in the last of us. The price and other components in the laptop made it worth it to me though

[@jameyt1]

the 4070 mobile won't hold its value for long with 8gb of vram

[@OWNORDISOWN]

Totally agree. Lots of naysayers out there who think otherwise but you are right 👍

[@sgtcrofty2053]

The gap between the 4070 and 4080 mobile is too big. I have an msi 4070 laptop which has an 1080p screen and im very happy with it. I'm getting very good performance in 1080p and I got it for £1000. The 4070 mobile is an 1080p card.

[@aaz1992]

But Nvidia want the noobs to buy 4090 laptops because 4090 sounds more better :p

Honestly worth getting the laptop 4080 on sale, over a desktop 4070 PC.

Idk about your country, but in Poland a 4080 laptop is twice the price of a 4070 PC build

[@marcoashley8681]

@@tibiaots24In my country gaming laptops with RTX 4080 and i7/9 are much cheaper than a prebuilt 4070 desktop so definitely worth it for those who don’t want to buy the parts separately

[@luqnotperfect]

I have to travel all the time so I carry a mac for work and a laptop with 4070 for gaming, and it goes so well for me, more than I expected. Previously I game on desktop 2080 with 3600 r5

[@lightmyfire88]

Another yt comparison with no Quiet Mode, this mode is perfect for 4070 i wanna see results

[@InnocentiusLacrimosa]

Yeah... this so stupid that Nvidia "4090" mobile is actually power contrained 4080M and so it rolls down the stack. So now we are watching mobile "4070" and it is actually the disappointing power constrained desktop 4060. What makes it even worse is that on desktop also the product tiers were inflated by 1 for each product besides 4090.

[@TabalugaDragon]

no, 4070m is a power constrained desktop 4060 ti, but yes, it's still pathetic because it has MUCH worse specs than desktop 4070. Had they given the 4070m 16GB like one of 4060 ti versions it wouldn't be so bad, but nope - their greed won again.

[@gytispranskunas4984]

Dont forget that 4070 is not REALLY 4070. Because when you look at 4060 motherboard its laughible. Its literally 4050 just named as 4060. And comes with 4060 price tag. Mid range is now gone. There is only low end and top end.

[@OWNORDISOWN]

Very true!

[@damian-ps3jz]

Just because of the price, I bought a 4070 laptop, although I know about its limitation due to the vram, I didn't care much since the games that require more vram don't interest me or they would go just at 1080p, although maybe I would regret it if the store where I bought it sells a laptop with a 4080 at the same price

[@OWNORDISOWN]

Yeah, if the price is reasonable then it makes sense. I have seen some good sales on laptops from 2023

You have GOT to do a review of the new 7900m AMD gpu! Please!

[@LuizValenz]

I think is a good era for mobile GPUs

[@OWNORDISOWN]

Certainly I'm impressed with my mobile 4080. It is a good boost over the 3070Ti I had previously

[@TabalugaDragon]

1000 and 2000 series were the best era. They used desktop GPUs in laptops(100% the same or even better specs than on desktops) and honest naming, which resulted in laptops being VERY close to desktop GPUs.

[@LuizValenz]

@TabalugaDragon I can not agree with you . New mobile gpus are more powerful and energy-efficient insane moreover powered by AI, so You can pack in a laptop , gpu which it will get a good longevity, just Imagine the impact to have FG and DLSS in the next years, adding this we have FSR 3, open source.... I hope you can understand my point why this era y so good for mobiles GPUs..... On the other hand, you said , " The use desktop GPUs in laptop." That is incorrect. I had both 2060, mobile, and desktop... jejeje performance gap was quite different ;),

[@TabalugaDragon]

@@LuizValenz They could be even more powerful if Nvidia used honest naming. If laptop 4070 had desktop 4070 specifications it would perform even better, including at lower power limits. Frame Generation, DLSS have nothing to do with spefications, all 4000 series GPUs had them. But if laptop 1070 was only 5% slower than its desktop version(it actually had *more* cores than desktop 1070), the laptop 4070 is up to 55% slower than desktop 4070 due to Nvidia's greed and the wish to scam laptop users. How is that better than having proper desktop GPU in a laptop? "That is incorrect. I had both 2060, mobile, and desktop... jejeje performance gap was quite different ;)," I didn't say they performed exacly the same, I said they were close. The laptop 2060 used exactly the same chip as the desktop 2060, which resulted in performance not being so far. If it used a cut down GPU like many modern ones or GPUs before 1000 series(M-branded GPUs) it would be even further away from the desktop 2060. Want proof? See GTX 960m vs desktop 960 benchmarks. The desktop 960 is like twice faster. Can you say the same about your 2060? No. Because it was a proper desktop GPU in a laptop. The 80-90 watt 2060 and 115w 2070 were the furthest away from desktop versions in 2000 series(due to big difference in power consumption), whereas 1650, 1660 ti, 115w 2060 and 2080 were within 10-15% of the desktop versions. In 1000 series the difference was only 5-10% on average for ALL laptop GPUs.

How would perform rtx 4080 if its power would be limited same as rtx 4070 in laptop?

it should perform better, as it has more cores. The laptop 4090m is basically a downclocked desktop 4080 with slower memory.

[@OWNORDISOWN]

So far my favorite is the Cyberpowerpc Tracer Vii. The mech 17 GP2 is the same machine, although Ekuktronics has the Prema bios and can undervolt the CPU. The bios is locked down on my Tracer. I like it because it is solidly built. All metal. In turbo mode the CPU gets into the low 90s. Balanced mode low to mid 80s. It's fairly quiet, has windows hello camera, advanced Optimus and you can water cool it if you like. I have the cooler but haven't tried it yet. Screen is plenty bright and is 240hz. It has an SD card reader which I wanted. Cyberpowerpc often have sales and 5% off coupons. The only thing was that the first one had dodgy speakers and it's replacement was giving me a blue screen error. This one is great. I also really liked the Legion 7i pro and is probably my second favorite followed by either the GE78HX or GT77 titan. I just feel that it is a shame that the MSI laptops don't have advanced Optimus. The Alienware m18 and m16 ran hot and has that inverted motherboard which I've never been a fan of.

[@Jowersman]

@@OWNORDISOWN do you think the carry weight of the Legion 7i vs ASUS M16 would be noticeable? It's about 1 lb difference or close to it. 7i seems like such a good buy right now... I just worry about portability. Thanks!

The naming convention isn't that confusing, the 4090 mobile is just the fastest mobile and obviously isn't the same as a desktop 4090 because it costs like half of what the desktop version does. Just picked up a 4070 laptop for 1k$ but just a 4070 desktop card is 600$. The mobile version of everything is underpowered and doesn't perform the same on half the power, but that's to be expected and it's built into the price.
