[FPS Benchmarks] Overwatch on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (150W) and RTX 3070 Ti (150W) – RTX 3080 is 13% faster
Overwatch is one of the most successful Blizzard games ever. One of the main reasons for that is the fun gameplay that is full of action. In addition, the game brings a decent amount of humor, interesting weapons, a good soundtrack, and nice visuals as well.
Speaking of visuals, the game looks good and it’s not the heaviest title out there. A 25W GPU like the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6, 25W) is enough for almost 90 FPS on the Medium preset and that indicates well how light this game is. For this comparison, we have prepared two GPU powerhouses – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (150W) and RTX 3070 Ti (150W).
