Performance:
GPU clock speed 2325 MHz 2325 MHz
GPU turbo 2625 MHz 2542 MHz
pixel rate 210 GPixel/s 203.4 GPixel/s
floating-point performance 32.26 TFLOPS 31.24 TFLOPS

Both cards share the same architectural foundation: identical base clocks of 2325 MHz, the same 6144 shading units, 192 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and matched memory speeds of 1750 MHz. This means any performance gap between them comes down entirely to how aggressively each manufacturer has tuned the GPU boost behavior — not to any structural hardware difference.

That gap, while modest, is consistent across every derived metric. The Gigabyte Gaming OC reaches a boost clock of 2625 MHz versus the Zotac Solid OC′s 2542 MHz — an 83 MHz advantage that cascades into measurably higher throughput across the board: 32.26 TFLOPS of floating-point performance versus 31.24 TFLOPS, a texture rate of 504 GTexels/s versus 488.1 GTexels/s, and a pixel fill rate of 210 GPixel/s versus 203.4 GPixel/s. In practice, these differences translate to roughly a 3% compute and throughput advantage for the Gigabyte, which is unlikely to be perceptible in most gaming workloads but could matter at the margins in GPU-limited scenarios or compute tasks.

The edge in this group goes to the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Gaming OC. Its higher factory boost clock gives it a consistent, if small, lead across every performance metric. Both cards support Double Precision Floating Point, so neither has an advantage there. If sustained peak throughput is a priority — whether for high-refresh gaming or GPU compute — the Gigabyte′s OC profile makes it the stronger option of the two.

The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Gaming OC and the Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 5070 Solid OC share the same core specifications. Both cards use the Blackwell GPU architecture, have a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 250W, and support PCI Express (PCIe) version 5. They are built using a 5 nm semiconductor size and both feature 31,100 million transistors.

Neither card includes air-water cooling, and both have similar physical dimensions, though the Gigabyte model is slightly larger. The Gigabyte card measures 327 mm in width and 132 mm in height, while the Zotac card is more compact at 304.4 mm in width and 115.8 mm in height.

With these specifications being almost identical, the only notable difference is the physical size of the cards, with the Gigabyte model being a bit larger than the Zotac card.

Comparison Summary & Verdict

After examining every specification, both cards prove to be closely matched at their core, sharing the same 12GB GDDR7 memory, 250W TDP, and full feature set including ray tracing and DLSS. However, the differences are meaningful for the right buyer. The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Gaming OC pulls ahead with a higher GPU turbo clock of 2625 MHz, superior floating-point performance at 32.26 TFLOPS, and a faster texture rate of 504 GTexels/s, making it the stronger choice for users who want every last drop of performance. On the other hand, the Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 5070 Solid OC is notably more compact at 304.4 mm wide and 115.8 mm tall, giving it a clear edge for users with smaller or more constrained PC cases. Choose based on whether raw performance or physical fit is your priority.
