日本[FPS Benchmarks] Assassin’s Creed Valhalla on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (165W) and RTX 3070 (140W) – the margin is small
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is one of the hottest games that were released in 2020. Just like the previous two installments of the series (Odyssey and Origins) the new game come with a long storyline that offers a lot of side quests, dialogues, RPG-like player progression, etc.
The game looks good despite the fact that it uses the same engine as its predecessors.

This big and beautiful open world needs a lot of system resources for Ultra details. For this article, we have prepared two high-end mobile GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (165W) and RTX 3070 (140W).
