[FPS Benchmarks] Apex Legends on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (95W) and RTX 3050 (75W) – the 95W GPU is a lot faster
Apex Legends is one of the good battle royale games on the market alongside PUBG and Call Of Duty: Warzone. As always, the main goal is simple, all the players are situated on a huge map, and the last man (team) standing wins. If you want to frag the others with ease, you’ll need a lot of practice.
The visual quality of the game is good and it uses Valve’s Source engine. Well, Apex Legends isn’t as light as CS:GO (which is based on the same engine) but on the other hand, the game definitely looks eye-candy when you bump the visual settings to their maximum state. So, in this article we’ll compare the performance of two RTX GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (95W) and RTX 3050 (75W).
