Using the graphics card-only power draw figures presented earlier in the review, here we present performance per Watt on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 1080p.

Per-Game Results at 1080p:

12-Game Average at 1080p:

In terms of efficiency, at 1080p the RTX 5070 is tied second with the RTX 4080 Super, meaning it still lags behind the RTX 5080, while it's an 8% improvement over the 4070 Super.

Ray tracing results

As a bonus, we now include the power figures for all eight games we test with ray tracing enabled.

8-Game ray tracing average:

With RT enabled, the 5070 slips back behind the 4080 Super and is only a marginal improvement over the RTX 4090.
