[FPS Benchmarks] GTA V on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (95W) and RTX 3050 (75W) – RTX 3050 Ti is 10% faster on average
GTA V is still one of the most popular Rockstar Games titles. The game has a large player base mainly because of the multiplayer mode that is constantly updated with new content via patches. For the single-player fans, there are tons of third-party mods, some of them are total conversions, others are adding new cars, etc.
Interestingly, this game is aging well. Even in 2022, it looks good, and if you decide to bump every visual setting to its max state, you’re going to need a good gaming machine. More than 60 FPS on Ultra quality means that your GPU should be at least a good mid-ranger with higher TGP like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (130W). For this comparison, we’re going to inspect the performance of the entry-level RTX GPUs – NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (95W) and RTX 3050 (75W).
