GeForce RTX 3080 [130W] 482 fps (+31%) 356 fps (+1%) 340 fps (+4%)
GeForce RTX 3070 [130W, Intel CPU] 369 fps 353 fps 326 fps




Verdict

Okay, there is a significant difference (31%) between these two GPUs on Low settings but probably that will not be important for most people because the smaller GPU can deliver 369 FPS which is enough even for 300 Hz displays. On Medium and Very High, the difference is just negligibly small. So, in this case, the RTX 3070 (130W) is the smart choice.
