[FPS Benchmarks] Cyberpunk 2077 on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (75W) and RTX 3050 (55W) – the 75W GPU is 28% faster on average
Cyberpunk 2077’s debut wasn’t the smoothest out there but after numerous patches, the game seems to be in a good state. Other than that, the titles offer a really long single-player campaign especially if you want to finish all the side quests (and gigs).
Visually, the game looks really good and it’s not that heavy if ray-tracing is turned off. That’s why for this comparison, we have prepared two entry-level RTX GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (75W) and RTX 3050 (55W). So, let’s see how worthy these two are when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077.

Verdict
Expectedly, the 75W GPU is faster. It can show 28% more FPS on average compared to the 55W sibling. It sounds normal – the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti [75W] has more CUDA cores and it comes with a 36% bigger TGP. However, the GeForce RTX 3050 [55W] is showing some decent result – it offers 33 FPS on Ultra quality which is just fine for such a modest video card.
