#4K BATTLEFIELD V 1080P#

That difference is increased at 4K to just 7%, making the RTX 3080 slightly faster in Hitman 2. Here the RTX 30 XT are evenly matched with the GeForce GPU winning by a slim 6% margin. Hitman 2 is mostly CPU limited at 1080p, so we can skip those results and move to 1440p. It's not a big difference in this title, but the GeForce GPU shows it's the better performer at 4K. Whatever the reason, the fact remains that the RTX 3080 often performs better at 4K and here we're seeing it come from 17% behind the 6800 XT at 1440p to 6% faster. This isn't so much a memory bandwidth issue for the RDNA 2 GPUs as people often claim, rather it's a case of the RTX 3080 and its underlying architecture coming to life at this higher resolution. The Ampere architecture does scale better at 4K, or at least the higher core count parts like the RTX 3080 do.

#4K BATTLEFIELD V 1080P#

Starting with Battlefield V we see that the Radeon GPUs have a significant performance advantage in this title, so much so that the RX 6800 is able to beat the RTX 3080 at 1080p and 1440p.Īt 1440p the 6800 XT is 20% faster than the RTX 3080, a massive performance difference considering they occupy a similar price point, or are at least are meant to. As usual, of the 30 games we tested we've picked around half a dozen of the most interesting results before we jump into breakdown graphs to summarize all the data.

Representing the GeForce team is the RTX 3080 Founders Edition graphics card, while the Radeon GPU will be represented by AMD's own reference card.īoth were tested at stock settings with no overclocking. We have also disabled stuff like Smart Access Memory unless specified otherwise. Since we first tested the GPUs, we've updated the our test rig, moving away from the Ryzen 9 3950X to the newer 5950X, though we're sticking with the DDR4-3200 CL14 dual-rank memory as it's quite a bit faster than even DDR4-3800 single rank. Whenever that time comes, this review will help answer the question of which one should you buy?įor reference, here are the GPU specs and suggested retail pricing for these cards.

Still, there's a chance if you're patient enough, you'll eventually get your hands on one of these GPUs, and of course we're hoping availability improves soon. As we reported last week, scalpers have been a major factor in the equation unfortunately. The RTX Ampere GPUs are coming in slowly, but supply is nowhere near it needs to be, so shortages will continue for the foreseeable. We have a long list of games to be tested covering the 1080p, 1440p and 4K resolutions.īut before we get to that, a quick disclaimer: yes, we know availability for both graphics cards is terrible, especially the Radeon which is almost non-existent based on what we're hearing from retailers. This latest GPU shootout sees the faster and more expensive GeForce RTX 3080 pitted against the Radeon RX 6800 XT. Due to popular demand we're following up to our comparison of the RTX 3070 and RX 6800 from a few weeks back.
