8GB · AI Score 2.0/100 · anchored estimate vs 51 measured cards
2 AI Score Includes estimates
We have not run NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER on our bench. These figures are anchored estimates, interpolated per workload against the 51 GPUs we did measure. On Llama 3.1 8B (Q4_K_M) NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER should deliver about 81 tokens/sec. Llama 3.3 70B does not fit. It needs roughly 42GB and this card has 8GB. For image generation, SDXL should run near 1.3 it/s, while FLUX.1-dev won't fit at BF16 (needs ~26GB). 9 of the 12 workloads won't fit on 8GB at the tested precision, Qwen2.5-Coder 14B, Qwen3 32B, Llama 3.3 70B, Z-Image Turbo and others. We publish those as hard gates rather than quietly dropping to a smaller quant.

Denser than 69% of the 746 cards we have silicon data for. Density is the clearest measure of what a process node bought: a card that gained it without growing the die got its speed from the fab rather than the architecture.

This card is $499 to buy. The cheapest listed rate on Vast.ai is $0.069/hour, but that is the floor: we budget $0.083/hour, a 20% premium, because idle time, storage and unavailable cheap instances all land on the same bill. At that rate buying wins after 6,027 GPU-hours. Below it you are paying for idle silicon.
| How you would use it | GPU-hours a year | Rental cost a year | Time to break even |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 hours a day, hobby | 730 | $60 | 8.3 years |
| 8 hours a day, working on it | 2,920 | $242 | 2.1 years |
| 24/7, always-on agent | 8,760 | $725 | 8.3 months |
At hobby usage this card is very unlikely to pay for itself before it is superseded. Rent it. Rental figures include a 20% premium over the cheapest listed rate. Ignores electricity, resale and the fact that a rented card can be a newer one tomorrow.
