Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an action RPG with FPS elements, launched in August 2016, that uses the Dawn engine, being compatible with DirectX 12. We tested it using the benchmark included in the game, with DirectX 12 enabled, graphic options “high” and MSAA 2x.
The results below, in Full HD and 4K, are expressed in frames per second.
On Deus Ex: M
ankind Divided in Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 5% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was also 5% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
F1 2017
F1 2017 is a racing game launched in August 2017, using the Ego 4.0 engine, being compatible with DirectX 12. We tested the performance in this game using the built-in benchmark, with quality options “high”.
The results below are expressed in fps.
On the Doom test with Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 5% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K resolution, both the video card had the same performance.
These results shown that there was a CPU bottleneck in this game.
GTA V
Grand Theft Auto V, or simply GTA V, is an open-world action game released for PCs in April of 2015, using the RAGE engine. In order to measure the performance on this game, we ran the performance test of the game, measuring the framerate with FRAPS. We ran GTA V at Full HD and 4K, with all image quality set as “very high” and MSAA 2x.
On the Full HD benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 4% faster than the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti performed similarly to the GeForce GTX 1080.
Hitman
Hitman is an action/stealth game, launched in March 2016, that uses a DirectX 12 compatible version of the Glacier 2 engine. To measure performance in this game, we ran the benchmark in it, measuring the framerate with FRAPS. We ran this game with DirectX 12 enabled, with image quality set as “ultra” and SMAA on.
The results below, in Full HD and 4K, are expressed in frames per second.
On Hitman, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti performed similarly to the GeForce GTX 1080.
With 4K resolution, also both video card had the same performance.
Mad Max
Mad Max is an open-world action game launched in September of 2015, using the Avalanche engine. In order to measure the performance using this game, we ran its intro, measuring the framerate with FRAPS three times. We ran the game with image quality set as “very high”.
The results below are expressed in fps and they are the mean between the three collected results.
On Mad Max, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was on a technical tie to the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 5% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
Rainbow Six Siege
“Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege” is a tactical FPS game launched in December 2015, using the AnvilNext engine, which is DirectX 11. In order to measure the performance using this game, we ran the benchmark included on it, using graphics quality “ultra”.
The results below are expressed in frames per second.
On this game, in Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 5% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K resolution, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 4% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
Rise of the Tomb Rider
Rise of the Tomb Rider is an adventure/action game launched in January of 2016, based on Foundation engine. In order to measure the performance using this game, we ran the benchmark included on it, using graphics quality “high” and DirectX 12 enabled.
The results below are expressed in frames per second.
On Rise of the Tomb Rider, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 7% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K resolution, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was 6% slower than the GeForce GTX 1080.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an open-world RPG, released in May of 2015 and based on the REDengine 3 engine. In order to measure the performance in this game, we walk around at the first scene of the game, measuring the framerate with FRAPS three times. We ran the game at Full HD (1920 x 1080), with image quality set to “ultra”.
The results below are expressed in frames per second and represent the arithmetical mean of the three collected results.
On Rise of the Tomb Rider, in Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti performed similarly to the GeForce GTX 1080.
On 4K resolution, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti was also as fast as the GeForce GTX 1080.
In our tests, it was clear that the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti is almosts as fast as the GeForce GTX 1080. On most games, they performed similarly, and on the other ones, the GTX 1070 Ti was around 5% slower.
This was actually expected, since these two video cards use the same architecture and have very similar specs; the only differences are that the GTX 1070 Ti has 128 cores less, and its memory ticks at 8 GHz, and not 10 GHz like on the GTX 1080.

Regarding to the GALAX GeForce GTX 1070 Ti EX model, it is robust and well-made. The cooling system is great and it is almost quiet even at full load. The fans stop when the GPU is idle. Bringing two power connectors also gives a better chance of a successful overclocking.
The decision to buy the GeForc
e GTX 1070 Ti will depend on the price you find it: if it costs less than the GeForce GTX 1080 (it should do,) it is a better deal, since it has almost the same performance. This video card will allow you to play any recent game at Full HD resolution with the highest possible quality and high framerate, and it will even support 4K gameplay on some titles.
