A pleasant surprise for those looking to buy a powerful gaming laptop
The test results of the mobile video card GeForce RTX 3070 appeared on the web, and they look promising: the V-Ray 5 test estimated its performance at 1394 points. This is just a couple of percent less than the desktop GeForce RTX 2080 Ti! That one has 1455 points.
The GeForce RTX 3070 mobile graphics card is as fast as the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti desktop
The desktop RTX 3060 Ti outperforms the mobile RTX 3070 by about 8% (it has 1503 points), but the desktop RTX 3070 is much ahead of it with 1861 points. And this is further confirmation that desktop and mobile Ampere graphics cards will have different GPUs. So, if the desktop GeForce RTX 3080 uses GPU GA102, then GPU GA104 is assigned to the mobile RTX 3080. The same GPU will most likely be used in the GeForce RTX 3070, but in a stripped-down version.
The TGP value of the GeForce RTX 3070 is expected to be 80-90W, which is an acceptable figure for gaming laptops. At the same time, the TGP of the mobile RTX 3080 is predicted at 115-150 W damage, and this is certainly a lot.
Mobile GeForce RTX 30 will be used in laptops with AMD Ryzen 5000, respectively, these video cards should be presented at the same time as Ryzen 5000. However, these video cards will appear in laptops based on Intel Tiger Lake-H CPU.
