Which GPU should you choose for Blender?
RTX 4070 Ti is the stronger Blender rendering pick here based on benchmark score.
Cycles rendering performance
RTX 4070 Ti leads by 1133.1% in the Renderjuice Blender benchmark model (6,272 vs 509). For render-time-first decisions, that is the card to prioritize.
VRAM and scene capacity
RTX 4070 Ti has more scene headroom with 12 GB of VRAM versus 8 GB on Pro W5500 8 GB. That matters most for large environments, dense geometry, high-resolution textures, and less optimized production files.
Power ratings and cooling
Pro W5500 8 GB is the lower-power option at 125 W TDP, compared with 285 W for RTX 4070 Ti. If render speed is close, that can make Pro W5500 8 GB easier to cool and run quietly.
Is the upgrade worthwhile?
RTX 4070 Ti is both the newer and faster Blender rendering choice here. The main reason to choose Pro W5500 8 GB would be price, availability, existing ownership, or a specific workstation requirement.
Comparison summary
RTX 4070 Ti leads the Blender benchmark score by 1133.1%.
Fastest in Cycles: RTX 4070 Ti 1,133% faster than Pro W5500 8 GB.
Most VRAM: RTX 4070 Ti 50% more VRAM than Pro W5500 8 GB.
Lowest power draw: Pro W5500 8 GB 56% lower rating than RTX 4070 Ti.
Cheapest: Cannot compare Price unavailable for some GPUs.
Best value for money: Cannot compare Price or benchmark unavailable for some GPUs.
Pro W5500 8 GB has 8 GB of VRAM, while RTX 4070 Ti has 12 GB, which matters when scenes, textures, or geometry get heavier.
If you are deciding between these cards for Blender, focus first on Blender benchmark score, VRAM capacity, memory bandwidth, and whether your scenes are likely to benefit more from raw speed or extra memory headroom. The comparison table above keeps those tradeoffs in one place.
