Next up is OctaneBench, and performance for the RTX 3090 is 18% ahead of the RTX 3080 when testing with RTX off. Turning RTX on increases that gap to 20% in the 3090's favour.

SPECviewperf 13 doesn't seem to scale as well, as we are looking at performance improvements of just 8-10% versus the RTX 3080 in the three tests that we ran.

Finally, we save the best til last with V-Ray. Here, the RTX 3090 Gaming X Trio outperforms the RTX 3080 by 23%, while delivering over double the performance of the RTX 2080 Ti. Not bad at all.
