GeForce RTX 3060 Ti vs GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce RTX 3060 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 5080 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 80 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti at 200 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop is faster than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.
