The MSRPs

Using the average frame rate data presented earlier in the review, here we look at the cost per frame using the UK MSRP launch prices for each GPU.

As we'd expect, a circa ~15% performance uplift for effectively the same price as the original RTX 4070 (or £10 less for UK buyers) means the cost per frame of the 4070 Super has improved a fair bit – it represents a 15% reduction in cost per frame versus the 4070 when looking at the 1440p data, and closes the gap on the RX 7800 XT quite significantly – though it isn't able to fully catch up with the AMD GPU.

Current retail pricing

Of course, current retail pricing can vary a fair bit compared to the MSRPs, but even then, if the 4070 Super can come to market at the £579 asking price, it's value is still going to be very competitive. It's also worth pointing out that in many cases the 7800 XT's value won't be as good as what's shown here as it's been selling above MSRP quite consistently since its launch, and only in the last week or so did I see a reference model drop back to MSRP.
