GeForce RTX 3080 Ti vs RTX A4000 specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti graphics card is better than the RTX A4000 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 3080 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 3080 Ti also has a slightly 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 RTX A4000 has slightly more memory with 16 GiB of memory compared to 12 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the RTX A4000 has a significantly lower TDP at 140 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti at 350 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is better than the RTX A4000.
