GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile vs Quadro GV100: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile

2022

Why buy it

  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • Better long-term bet: Ampere on 8nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
  • Draws 150W instead of 250W, a 100W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Quadro GV100 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 16 GB vs 32 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 2.1 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $8,999 MSRP).

Quadro GV100

2018

Why buy it

  • 12.9% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 2.1 vs 0 G3D/$ ($8,999 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (32 GB vs 16 GB).

Trade-offs

  • No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • Older hardware, 32 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in newer AAA releases.
  • 66.7% higher power demand at 250W vs 150W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Quadro GV100 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 12.9% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile instead at 19,115 vs 19,013, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 8nm process instead of 12nm, 58 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2022 generation instead of 2018. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Quadro GV100 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and lighter 1440p, Quadro GV100 is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and lighter 1440p headroom, GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile has the stronger long-term case.
