For most gamers, the NVIDIA RTX 3070 is the better performer of the two — about 19% faster, which translates to a noticeable but smaller bump in demanding games. Interestingly, the slower AMD RX 6700 XT actually has more VRAM (12GB vs 8GB) — a small edge for very high-res textures, though it can't close the raw performance gap. If you already own the AMD RX 6700 XT, the gap to the NVIDIA RTX 3070 is small enough that an upgrade is hard to justify on performance alone.

Yes. The NVIDIA RTX 3070 is about 19% faster overall, averaging roughly NaN FPS versus NaN FPS for the AMD RX 6700 XT at 1440p with optimized settings across popular games.
About 19% faster on average. The exact gap varies by game and resolution — heavier, GPU-bound games show the biggest difference.
A 19% jump is a small step up — usually not worth the cost on its own. Interestingly, the slower AMD RX 6700 XT actually has more VRAM (12GB vs 8GB) — a small edge for very high-res textures, though it can't close the raw performance gap.
FPS figures are estimates from a generalized model (hardware tier × game load × per-setting weights), not live benchmarks — real performance varies by scene, drivers and game version.
