The RTX series has lower power variants. When you compare against the 3090 you are establishing a context with power consumption as a low priority.

Considering the 3090 had over double the performance, the lower power parts may well be both faster and more power efficient. You'd have to do the comparison to know, if that's what you care more about.

The FPS was closer than double. The flawed benchmark the 3090 had double.

I'm not sure how the lower power RTX variants compare, maybe that's a closer comparison, has there been a review against those?
