No, despite its higher price point of €1210, the GeForce RTX 3080 proves disappointing when purchased new. For a similar price, Radeon RX 7900 XTX has 65.6% better 3DMark score compared to GeForce RTX 3080.
In the used market, the GeForce RTX 3080 fails to justify its value for money. It lags behind the GeForce RTX 5070 which outperforms it by a lead of 20.5% in 3DMark benchmark.
Recommended PSU for the RTX 3080: about 900 W — the card draws 320 W, a CPU such as the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X about 105 W, and doubling the total leaves headroom for transient spikes. Pick a unit from a reputable tier of the Cultists Network PSU Tier List.
