Whatever you read online was wrong, the 3080 is about 30% faster than the 3070, huge gap. 3060TI and 3070 are very close (5-10%). 3080 is sameish as 4070, 3070 is about a 4060ti, and 3060ti is about a 4060.

Still a good deal, but not as good as the other deal.

3080 would have the benefit of 10GB of RAM vs 8GB on 3070. Not a deal breaker, just something to be aware of since we're comparing.

It's not a on paper thing, I'm not sure where you are looking but every big (gamers nexus etc) has them about 30% apart. I own both, have ran both in my main pc, it's definitely a big gap between them. Fps on the same pc same settings is going to be roughly 30% higher on the 3080 vs 3070. Like I said the 3080 and 4070 are fairly close, maybe that's what you were looking at. The 3070 was always a meh card, it was so close to the 3060ti for a good bit more, the 3080 at msrp was a monster bargain.

Maybe you are looking at tight fps numbers if it's a super demanding game, if the 3080 is running 60fps and the 3070 is at 42fps that's only 18fps, but that's still 30%.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

This isn't that much different than the other Acer Predator deal. Just a _slightly_ less powerful GPU for the same price.

See my spreadsheet to compare them (near the bottom).

$100 cheaper/ 10% cheaper is pretty good considering everything I read online says the difference in cards is minimal. The 3080 draws a lot more power too. I ended up purchasing this over the other deal for those reasons.

On paper that is correct. The side by side videos, user reviews using both cards playing the high demand games, and price most opt for this card. This is shown by sales and ratings.

I am not trying to argue, this is a solid setup and the extra $100 between the 2 systems can go towards extra memory. This deal is still live too.

3060ti is not really a 4060

There's times the 3060ti will beat the 4060ti simply because of the RAM bandwidth

That's why the 4060ti is considered a garbage product
