GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop vs RTX A5500 Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the RTX A5500 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop has a slightly 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. Despite this, the RTX A5500 Laptop 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 slightly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the RTX A5500 Laptop at 140 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the RTX A5500 Laptop is better than the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop.
