Our Verdict: With some tuning, the RTX 3080 makes the most sense for gamers with 4K monitors and it is better than RX 5700 XT by a margin. Though serious gamers hardly play at 4k. For everyone else, especially those on 1080p or even 1440p monitors, the RX 5700 XT could be the better value choice in the short term. The RTX 3080 is faster by 88% for 1440p gaming. However, RX 5700 XT is still capable of producing more than 60 frames per second. For 1080p games, upgrading from RX 5700 XT to RTX 3080 is not worth it if targeting 60 frames per second.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080

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 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 699. The good news is, with the release of the RTX 3080 Ti, the RTX 3080 's price is getting more discount.

Spec for spec, this RTX 3080 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 2080, by boasting 69.4 % more fps. The RTX 3080 has 10 GB RAM compared to the RTX 2080 's 8 GB video memory.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3080 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 2080, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 6800 XT, the RTX 3080 was -1.6 % 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 67 fps to 85 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 75 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play The Last of Us Part I, Forspoken, Atomic Heart, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Hogwarts Legacy at 65 fps to 85 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 73 fps.

For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Halo Infinite, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, GreedFall, Cyberpunk 2077, Godfall at 61 fps to 64 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 62 fps.

AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT

AMD ’s xx00 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the RDNA 1.0 graphics card inside the RX 5700 XT, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. Spec for spec, this RX 5700 XT leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RX Vega 56, by boasting 28.1 % more fps.

In our synthetic benchmarks, the RX 5700 XT blows past the RX Vega 56 and, amazingly, even the RX Vega 64 as well. Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, RTX 2070, the RX 5700 XT was 1.7 % faster.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RX 5700 XT consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RX Vega 56 and it really justifies an upgrade. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play A Plague Tale: Requiem, Dead Space, Metro Exodus, God of War, Forza Horizon 5 at 67 fps to 69 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 68 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Battlefield 2042, Baldur's Gate 3, Armored Core VI, Anthem, Final Fantasy XV at 64 fps to 68 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 66 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Forza Horizon 4, Spider-Man Remastered, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Fallout 76, Battlefield V at 62 fps to 64 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 63 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 / Core i9-10900K

It is worth noting that the RTX 3080 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. In terms of memory, the RTX 3080 's 10240 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. Deciding whether to invest so much money in a high-end GPU like RTX 3080 requires careful thought. 4K gaming is joyous on this RTX 3080 , and with a little tweaking to your AA settings, it'd be hard to imagine a title not capable of 60 fps on average.
