Hey dude thanks for all the great reviews you do with laptops. I just wanted to ask if you could throw in one more collection of averages. You get the data anyway. 1% lows. To me it looks like the difference may be significant enough to point it out when even though avg. is about the same it looks like the 1% lows were worse for the 4070. It's just one more chart to show for each resolution you show the avg. for. Thanks again and always good stuff.

My conspiracy theory is that FG can easily be enabled on 30 series, but Nvidia only allows it for 40 series so they can make worse hardware and still sell it Edit: not so crazy after all....

Technically, FG is much like motion interpolation on modern TVs....you can achieve very similar results, where the 60 FPS Output from as PS5 could be 120 and more.... Such features come with artefacts...maybe AMD will release a FSR update soon were also older GPUs from all manufacturers can use it.

[@Piketom1]

CPU temperatures and power requirements are still a major problem in laptops, even relatively beefy gaming laptops. A lower TGP for the graphics card means more power can be sent to the CPU. From personal experience, 70 and 80 series GPUs are typically more limited by the CPU performance in a laptop than anything else. Alleviating the thermal constraints on the system by allowing the GPU to get similar performance at a lower wattage makes a big difference in that regard.

[@BadEnd98]

Yeah but realistically, the CPU is the one heating up laptop the most. GPU power cut down won't make much difference when it's not even going over 70-80 degree. And 4050, 4060 laptop won't even receive more performance going from 100 to 140/150w like 30 series. We're paying more for the same perf

[@BenjaminRodriguezReyes]

This GPU is codenamed AD106. The 106 class GPUs last gen were the 3060 and 3050. They're doing the same old trick again, this is a 60 class card with a 70 class name. Edit: If you look up the AD106 it is the same chip found in the 4060 and 4050. This is probably just a highly binned AD106 aka a jumped up 4060.

Yup. They're selling 4060 as "4060", but it is in fact 4050ti due to 2500 cores vs 3000. 4070 tho is the real 4060 due to much more cores. So Nvidia sells us 4060 which is in fact 4050ti and second, it sells 4070, which is on fact 4060. And 4070 vs 4060 branding is at least 100$ more

Die size wise, the AD106 compares to the GA107. So it's even worse. They are naming the successor to the RTX 3050 Ti as RTX 4070. You heard that right.

@Captain_Morgan What point do you want to prove with an extremely-heavily cut down GA106 that became the 3050, exactly? GP106 isn't a fair comparison, it didn't have dedicated RT cores. And even if it did, it only indirectly refute a tiny part of my narrative.

If the results on 4060 vs 3060 are going to be similar, where 4060 barely beats 3060 and needs DLSS 3 (which on it's own doesn't give too much of a difference) AND a frame generation to get a significant difference, I'm more than happy with my RTX3060 laptop :)

Don't be surprised if you start seeing business, mainstream, relatively portable laptops, fully USB-C powered laptops with 4070, like XPS class laptops. Sure, it won't be at max TDP, but not everything has to be max performance all the time, and those would have been laptops that had a 3060 last generation.

I'm in the exact same situation. I was only planning on buying a 3060, but then I saw how little the difference was in price relative to the performance increase, so I went with the 3070ti. The one I bought is now at least 15% more expensive and seeing how the 4070 does, I am very satisfied :D

I always skeptical when nvidia publish the specification of RTX 40 series laptop which most of them has less cuda cores compared to 30 series. I guess 4060 will have the same story since it only has 3072 versus 3840 on the RTX 3060

[@OneAngrehCat]

I wondered if with their policy of 50% increase of power for 50% increase of price (so, same thing 2 years later), Nvidia would not end up with reviewers comparing a say 4060 to 3070 or 4070 to 3080 and saying it's the same thing at some point. I was wrong. The 3070 Ti laptop is a 4070 laptop. Bravo Jensen.

Getting used to a 15 6" screen is an adjustment from the 17" but it's not as noticeable as I thought it would be. I highly recommend it.

[@xerogue]

4070 is really a 4060.

[@CyberneticArgumentCreator]

A desktop 4060, yes. The laptop has always been one tier down in specs and performance from the desktop naming scheme. 80->70, 70->60, etc. In fact, you can look at this and see the type of performance a desktop 4060 will have stock. The desktop version will have a bit more power to play with for overclocking but in general this is probably the 4060's performance, as has been the case every generation for the last 10 years.

[@xerogue]

@@CyberneticArgumentCreator nope my point is that typically we see a massive uplift in mobile generational performance. For example a 3060m matched a 2080m. The fact a 4070m can't even beat a 3070tim shows that the card is basically a 4060m branded as a 4070m. Proof is in the cuda core count

This video makes me feel so much better about the laptop I bought. Back in September I bought an Asus Zephyrus Pro Duo 16. The model I got has the 6900HX, 3070TI (150 watt TDP) 32gb DDR5 ram, 1TB SSD, and the 165HZ 1200p display. I got mine on sale for $2999 Canadian (or about $2200 USD) and ended up getting it for $2850 since Asus mis-advertised it with a 1600 display (I don't really mind at 16 inches 1200p is fine) so I essentially got it for $2100 USD. I absolutely love the dual display setup and generally everything about it. $2100 USD for a pro duo is already insane and now seeing that my laptop more or less competes with rtx 4070 laptops is a huge relief. I knew the new GPUs were coming out this year but decided to bite the bullet. Glad I did considering the performance is more or less the same and I got my laptop for an insane sales price

[@Al_Neo]

Thanks Jarrod. They are just joking with us while our wallet laughing back at us. 😂

[@vasylzhydun8879]

Actually the FPS per W graph tells pretty existing thing. Laptops like XPS 15-17, ThinkPads, and other non gaming specific laptops with 50 to 70W at GPU will be pretty close to previously thiker and heavier proper gaming laptops. Jump from 3060 to 4070 for XPS might bring more than 50% graphical performance to those machines.

[@MatthewCimone]

I'd love to see a productivity / benchmark comparison between those CPUs. I'm interested if the extra cache makes a big difference. Also wondering why so many more units seems to be paired with i9s in 13th gen laptops.

[@ryszardzokowski812]

Probably even worse for creators, thats why we didn't see any test. Lower cuda and tensor cores and memory bandwidth so in blender and davinci resolve performance will be worst then rtx3000.

Glad I got the 3070ti Legion (the one in video) for CAD 1600! Reassuring.

[@DoubleDragon5180]

Ok so here’s a unpopular take: From what I’m seeing from the “4070”(whatever you wanna call it) is not that bad of a GPU. Here’s the thing, yes it doesn’t perform that much better(if at all) better than the 3070ti but it can go so much lower and not lose that much performance. 1:33 shows that clearly. The fact you can get 1440p60fps at 40watts is seriously impressive. All is needed is a better efficient CPU… I would love to see how the 4070 performs at 50 watts

[@kristhianpinazo8221]

yeah, dude, that means more battery life.

I bought my Legion 5 Pro back in November 2022. I figured if we followed past trends laptops with 40 series GPUs wouldn't hit the market until later in 2023. Well que my surprise when I saw they were being released much earlier than that. I was pretty damn disappointed and really kicking myself for not waiting a couple months considering I spent $1500 for the R7 6800h RTX 3070Ti model. I thought the difference would be much greater than this. Now I feel much better about my purchase. No wonder Nvidia is making excuses to not bring FG to 30 series GPUs seeing that the feature is the only differentiating factor...pretty pathetic tbh.

[@Syntax1963A]

Thank you for this shocking performance of the 4070, as I would have thought it beats the 3070ti by a large amount! If they would enable the cheat of FG for the 3070ti they are in the same league. I would even say because of the 8nm to the 4nm that the 4070 is much easier to destroy. Seeing this I am happy I got the Lenovo 7i 7th gen 3070ti for much lower price. (by the way I do not like the new Lenovo 7i design)

[@ofon2000]

Why didn't you compare the heat generation? I'm pretty sure a 4070 will be extremely efficient which is what mobile users should be shooting for. It's a bummer that they couldn't increase performance without DLSS 3.0 (frame generation like t.v.'s have had for a long time for those new to the topic) , but with the process node improved from 8 nm --> 4 nm these (4070 mobile GPUs) are probably able to run at much lower temperatures overall.

Bcs it uses different laptop with different thermal dissipation design and different thermal envelopes on top of entirely different class of cpu So comparing them doesn't make sense
