[FPS Benchmarks] Gears 5 on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (150W) and RTX 3070 Ti (150W) – RTX 3080 is 20% faster
When it comes to the gameplay experience, Gears 5 isn’t that different compared to its predecessor – Gears Of War 4. The new title continues the story of the previous game so you can expect a lot of fights with Locust and Swarm Hordes.
Visually, the game looks good and it uses Unreal Engine 4. It’s great to see that the title is optimized well and it runs okay even on low-end GPUs like the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6, 25W) – around 50 FPS on Medium details is just fine for a GPU like this one. For this comparison, we’re going to show you two fast video cards – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (150W) and RTX 3070 Ti (150W).

Verdict
Expectedly, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (150W) is faster compared to the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti (150W) and we’re talking about a 20% lead for the bigger GPU. Not bad at all, the more expensive video card can give a good FPS boost compared to its smaller sibling, of course, if you can afford it. However, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti (150W) is a fast graphics card as well – it scores 111 FPS on Ultra details which should be enough for most people.
