Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX 6800 GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop in gaming.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 6800 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 Radeon RX 6800 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6800 at 250 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 6800 is better than the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop.
