Bottom line: how fast is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti?

At 1440p (Ultra High), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti averages 105 fps in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, per KitGuru. For local LLM inference it generates 172.3 tokens/sec running llama2:7b at q4_0 under llama.cpp, per llama.cpp GitHub Discussion #15013. In PassMark G3D Mark it scores 29,286 pts, per PassMark. Its 24 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: that capacity fits 32B-parameter models at Q4 without offloading to system RAM.

Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.
