[FPS Benchmarks] Overwatch on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti (105W) and RTX 3060 (140W) – RTX 3070 Ti is 9% faster
When it comes to online shooters, Overwatch is one of the most well-known titles in this genre. The game combines nice visuals, a good soundtrack, and gameplay that bring a lot of fun and challenge to the table. You can choose among many characters that you can play with and they all have their own personalities which is a nice touch.
Overwatch is a good-looking game and it’s not heavy. You don’t need a powerhouse for 60 FPS on Epic Quality – a mid-range GPU like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 [Laptop, 55W] is enough powerful to show 114 FPS on Epic Quality. Still, people with high-end high refresh rate displays probably will need something much more powerful. For this article, we have picked two powerful RTX GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti (105W) and RTX 3060 (140W).
