RTX 3080

Measured performance for RTX 3080 across 1 verified WhatFPS runs. Every number is measured in our benchmark suite — not estimated, not self-reported. GPU score (the card's own performance): 9,043 on average over the best run per rig, best run 9,043 — #12 of 48 measured graphics cards. The best rig we measured it in scored 10,171 GAMING (that number reflects the whole PC, not just RTX 3080). Most often paired with Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-14600KF.

What the numbers mean

The GAMING score is a geometric mean of GPU (63 %), CPU (30 %), RAM (5 %) and drive (2 %) — a weak part cannot hide behind a strong one. The GPU score is the hardware's own performance and what we rank on. Every run is HMAC-signed in the app and scored on the server. The full methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
