Pros & cons summary
| Recency | 4 March 2025 | 12 April 2021 |
| Maximum RAM amount | 12 GB | 4 GB |
| Chip lithography | 5 nm | 12 nm |
| Power consumption (TDP) | 250 Watt | 40 Watt |
RTX 5070 has an age advantage of 3 years, a 200% higher maximum VRAM amount, and a 140% more advanced lithography process.
T600 Max-Q, on the other hand, has 525% lower power consumption.
We couldn't decide between GeForce RTX 5070 and T600 Max-Q. We've got no test results to judge.
Be aware that GeForce RTX 5070 is a desktop card while T600 Max-Q is a mobile workstation one.
