Our Verdict: With some tuning, the RTX 4080 Max-Q makes the most sense for gamers with 4K monitors and it is better than RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q by a margin. Though serious gamers hardly play at 4k. The RTX 4080 Max-Q is faster by 34% for 1440p gaming. However, RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q is still capable of producing more than 60 frames per second. For 1080p games, upgrading from RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q to RTX 4080 Max-Q is not worth it if targeting 60 frames per second. The price/performance ratio is much better for RTX 4080 Max-Q .

In terms of cost, pricing clearly is a genuine issue here and the price of RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q is simply ridiculous. For those on 1080p or even 1440p monitors, the RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q is very expensive and there are better value choices in the short term. In terms of memory, the RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q 's 16384 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. 4K gaming is joyous on this RTX 3080 Ti Max-Q , and with a little tweaking to your AA settings, it'd be hard to imagine a title not capable of 60 fps on average.
