GTA V is a very popular game that has a big fanbase. This is a 2015 title but it’s still alive because it has an interesting multiplayer and you can find a lot of mods for the single-player campaign.

Not the newest game, not the lightest as well and if you want to max it out, you’re going to need a really fast PC. For today’s comparison, we’ll show you two new and fast GPUs from 2021 – NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (130W) and RTX 3070 (85W).

GeForce RTX 3070 [130W] 169 fps (+17%) 136 fps (+16%) 89 fps (+13%) 75 fps (+15%)
GeForce RTX 3070 [85W] 144 fps 117 fps 79 fps 65 fps





Verdict

Actually, the difference between these two video cards isn’t colossal. The 130W GPU is 15% faster on average but on the other hand, the 85W sibling shows decent FPS while it has a hefty reduced TGP compared to the bigger rival.

The good news is that both can deliver more than 60 FPS on Ultra and around 80 FPS on Very High which means that (probably) you can expect a smooth gameplay experience with either of these two graphics solutions.
