Launch price in today's dollars

The GeForce RTX 4070 launched at $599 in 2023. Adjusted with the U.S. Consumer Price Index, that is about $651 in 2026 dollars (7-month average), a 9% rise over 3 years. At its launch price that is 878 Blender points per $100.

Method: launch price × (CPI 2026 average ÷ CPI 2023 average), calendar-year averages of BLS series CPIAUCSL. 2026 covers 7 months so far.

Blender rendering score

Median score 5,258 (middle half of runs 5,058–5,442) across 1,937 community runs on Blender 4.x with the OPTIX backend. That is #17 of 103 graphics cards in our dataset with a score, and #8 of 10 in the GeForce RTX 40 series.

This is a rendering benchmark (samples per minute over the monster, junkshop and classroom scenes), not a gaming benchmark. It says how fast the part renders in Blender's Cycles engine and nothing about frame rates. Source: Blender Open Data, CC0, snapshot 2026-09-06.
