[FPS Benchmarks] Overwatch on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (95W) and RTX 3050 (75W) – the 95W GPU is 24% faster
Overwatch is a Blizzard game that is very popular among online first-person shooter players. It combines good graphics and fun gameplay but at the same time, just like many other shooters, if you want to see yourself higher on the scoreboard, you’ll need a lot of practice.
As we said, the game brings good graphics to the table and it’s not too heavy when it comes to system requirements. On Low settings, even some low-end dGPUs can archive more than 60 FPS. For example, the NVIDIA GeForce MX250/330 (25W) can show 85 FPS which is a good example of how light the game is. However, people with expensive high refresh rate displays we’re going to need powerful GPUs if they want to see more than 240 FPS. For this article, we have picked two inexpensive RTX GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (95W) and RTX 3050 (75W).
