Spec for spec, this RTX 3070 Ti leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 2070 SUPER, by boasting 45.9 % more fps. In our synthetic benchmarks, the RTX 3070 Ti blows past the RTX 2070 SUPER and, amazingly, even the RTX 2080 as well.
Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3070 Ti consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 2070 SUPER and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 6800, the RTX 3070 Ti was -5.2 % slower.
For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play The Callisto Protocol, Remnant II, The Last of Us Part I, Halo Infinite, Forspoken at 62 fps to 80 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 71 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Hogwarts Legacy, Dead Space, Halo Infinite, Red Dead Redemption 2 at 62 fps to 72 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 69 fps.
For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Just Cause 4, Anthem, Total War: Warhammer III, Guardians of the Galaxy, Battlefield 2042 at 61 fps to 63 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 62 fps.
The RTX 3090 might be the extreme flagship of the latest Ampere set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most high-end PC gamers. On the other hand, the RTX 3080 Ti is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 799. The RTX 3080 Ti is much more cheaper than the RTX 2080 Ti as it costs $ 799. Compare this to the RTX 2080 Ti, which came originally at a price of $ 1299. Meanwhile, the AMD closest equivalent card is the RX 6900 XT which costs $ 999.
Spec for spec, this RTX 3080 Ti leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 2080 Ti, by boasting 49.8 % more fps. The RTX 3080 Ti has 12 GB RAM compared to the RTX 2080 Ti 's 11 GB video memory.
Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3080 Ti consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 2080 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 6900 XT, the RTX 3080 Ti was -3.3 % slower.
For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Microsoft Flight Simulator, Immortals of Aveum, The Callisto Protocol, Remnant II, The Last of Us Part I at 70 fps to 89 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 78 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Microsoft Flight Simulator, The Last of Us Part I, Forspoken, Atomic Heart, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor at 61 fps to 81 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 71 fps.
