[FPS Benchmarks] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (130W) and RTX 3060 (130W) – RTX 3080 is 48% faster on Ultra quality
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is a successful reboot for the series and it brings one long-awaited change – the game is based on a brand new engine. Months after the release of the title, Call Of Duty: Warzone debuted as a standalone game that features a battle royale mode. Warzone is super successful and it’s even free to play.
The new engine looks good and it’s well-optimized. Of course, for multiplayer or for battle royale, probably most players want their FPS to be as high as possible but if you aren’t too pretentious, a good modern mid-range GPU should do the job. For this comparison, we’re going to inspect the performance of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (130W) and RTX 3060 (130W).

Verdict
Alright, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (130W) is 37% faster on average compared to the RTX 3060 (130W). Yes, that’s a lot and if money isn’t a problem, the bigger GPU can offer high FPS suitable for 144Hz displays. However, the smaller GPU isn’t slow by any means, it shows respectable performance for a mid-ranger, it costs less, and if 112 FPS on Ultra isn’t enough for you, the Medium preset looks like the way to go in this scenario.
