The RTX 4070 can handle resolutions of up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 240Hz, thanks to its support for DSC and HDR. This means users can enjoy gaming at resolutions beyond 1080p and enjoy a smoother and more immersive experience. According to official claims, the RTX 4070 can allow players to enjoy modern games at over 100 frames per second at 1440p resolution, including games such as Plague Tale: Warhammer 40,000, Requiem, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Darktide, among others.
