GeForce GTX 780 vs GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 780 in our tests.

The GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop 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 RTX 3050 Ti Laptop also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the GeForce GTX 780 has significantly more memory with 6 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop is better than the GeForce GTX 780.
