GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti in our tests.

Our database shows that 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. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti at 250 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop over the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
