RTX A3000: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

The "RTX A3000 (Laptop)" is the third catalog record of NVIDIA's 2021 Ampere professional workhorse — completing the trio alongside the "RTX A3000 Laptop GPU" and "A3000 12GB" entries. Same game table, same hosts, a third composite score. 16 games are benchmarked at 1080p across a seven-model roster.

Where this record sits in 2026

The composite score of 57.9 ranks #95 of 341 — the third placement for one silicon: #43, #47 and now #95. That 52-place spread across three records of an identical chip is the widest record-level divergence documented in this catalog, and it makes the A3000 trio the clearest case study for reading game tables instead of record ranks. Neighbors here: the Quadro P5000 (58.2), RTX A2000 8GB (58.0) and Quadro RTX 3000 Max-Q (57.9) above; Apple M2 Ultra (57.6), RTX A1000 (57.2) and the RTX 4000 Max-Q record (56.6) below.

What the record brings

Specs match the sibling records: 6 GB of GDDR6, a 70 W envelope, an 8 nm Ampere process. Public entries: PassMark 12,624 and Time Spy 7,320 — within rounding of the twins' 12,642/7,320. CUDA and DLSS are supported.

FPS in games at 1080p

Identical to the sibling records at the high preset: CS:GO and Overwatch at 240, Valorant at 190, Counter-Strike 2 at 170, The Witcher 3 at 151, Dota 2 at 142, Fortnite/GTA V/PUBG at 140, Forza Horizon 4 at 120, Far Cry 5 at 111, Battlefield 5 at 110, Forza Horizon 5 at 95, Cyberpunk 2077 at 77, Resident Evil 4 Remake at 75 and Metro Exodus at 70. A complete 60+ table at 1080p high, five years after launch.

Laptops that carry it

The same seven 2021–2022 workstations as the sibling records: Dell Precision 7560/7760 ($705/$700), 7670/7770 ($652/$1,739), HP ZBook Fury 16 G9 ($1,827), Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 5 and Dell Precision 5770 ($901 each). The $652 entry point remains the value anchor of the trio's fleet.

Bottom line

Three records, one chip, three ranks — the A3000 family is this catalog's best argument for trusting tables over composites. The shopping guidance is unchanged from the sibling pages: a $652–$705 used Precision with this GPU delivers certified Ampere performance and a full 60+ FPS table at 1080p high, with 6 GB as the single constraint to check against your workload.
