GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop vs GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER beats the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER has a significantly 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 4070 SUPER also has a significantly 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 RTX 4070 SUPER at 220 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 4070 SUPER is faster than the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop.
