RTX 3000 Ada Laptop GPU: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide
RTX 3000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU — 15 games benchmarked at 1080p, 74 models in the catalog.
RTX 3000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU — 15 games benchmarked at 1080p , 74 laptop models in the used-laptop catalog . This guide covers what the chip delivers in games, where it sits among mobile GPUs in 2026, and which laptops carry it.
The RTX 3000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is the volume workstation step of NVIDIA's Ada lineup — 74 catalog models carry it, from 2023 Precision and ZBook machines to 2025-26 successors. This guide covers its 15 recorded game benchmarks at 1080p, eight of them with a medium column.
Where the RTX 3000 Ada sits in 2026
The composite ranks it #25 of 341 (score 73.7). The neighborhood: desktop RTX 4090 (#22, 75), RTX A5500 Laptop (#23, 74.9) and RTX 4070 Laptop (#24, 74.6) above; RTX A5000 Laptop (#26, 73.5), RTX 2070 Super (#27, 73.2) and RTX 3080 Laptop (#28, 73.1) below. Inside the Ada workstation ladder it sits under the 5000 Ada (#8) and 3500 Ada (#13) and above the 2000 Ada and 1000 Ada records — the middle of the professional stack, priced accordingly in performance.
What the chip brings
The record lists 4608 CUDA cores, 8GB of GDDR6, a 115W envelope, 15.62 TFLOPS on a 4nm process, with CUDA, DLSS and Resizable BAR support. Public benchmarks: PassMark 16070, Time Spy 8351, Fire Strike 20908, Vulkan 94417 — a clean mid-stack professional profile.
FPS in games at 1080p
At the high preset: CS:GO and Overwatch at their 240 ceilings, GTA V 163, Cyberpunk 1.6 at 151, The Witcher 3 146, PUBG at its 140 ceiling, Dota 2 Reborn 136, F1 22 at 128, Far Cry 5 104, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands 88, X-Plane 11 at 77, Final Fantasy XV 73, Baldur's Gate 3 70 and Cyberpunk 2077 at 61. The medium column is coherent everywhere — Cyberpunk 1.6 climbs 151 to 182, F1 22 128 to 160, Wonderlands 88 to 125 — textbook headroom for a 1080p part: drop one quality step and the same money buys visibly more frame rate.
Laptops that carry it — or the name
The 74-model roster is a name umbrella: "RTX 3000" matches listings across generations. The 2024-26 layer here — Dell Pro Precision 7 16 and HP ZBook X G2i at $2200, ThinkPad P16 Gen 3, Dell Pro Max 16/18, ZBook Fury G1i, Precision 5490, ZBook Studio and Power 16 G11, ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 ($765-2200) — is plausible Ada territory. Note that the same roster list also appears on the 2019 Quadro RTX 3000 Max-Q record in this catalog; that older part's page scopes its artifacts separately.
Bottom line
The RTX 3000 Ada is the sensible center of the workstation line: top-30 composite, a coherent medium-preset fallback, and a fleet of Precision/ZBook/ThinkPad chassis that keeps it serviceable for years. For game performance it out-runs the RTX 3080 Laptop record next to it in the ranking — workstation badge notwithstanding.
