[FPS Benchmarks] Warframe on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (95W) and RTX 3060 (140W) – both are very fast
Nowadays, gamers can enjoy a lot of free-to-play games and Warframe is one of these titles. The game is an example of how good a free game can be. The title offers a lot of in-game content that can keep you busy for many hours. In addition, the graphics quality is good enough for a game like this one.
The good news is that Warframe isn’t heavy at all. It can be played even on a modern iGPU (of course, on Low settings) like the Intel UHD Graphics Xe 750 (32EU) which can deliver more than 50 FPS on Low quality. Still, if you want to see more FPS alongside maxed-out visual, we’re going to need something much more powerful. For this article, we’ll compare two fast GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (95W) and RTX 3060 (140W).
