GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q vs GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop beats the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q 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 1660 Ti Max-Q also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 60 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop at 115 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop is better than the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q.
