GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop in our tests.

The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti has a slightly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti has significantly more memory with 11 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is faster than the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop.
