In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB are massively better than the Intel 865G.
The RTX 3080 was released over three years more recently than the 865G, and so the RTX 3080 is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the 865G when running the latest games.
The RTX 3080 has 10224 MB more video memory than the 865G, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the RTX 3080 also has superior memory performance overall.
The memory bandwidth of the GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB and the 865G are the same, which means the RTX 3080 and the 865G have equal limitations when it comes to graphical data transfer.
The RTX 3080 has 8704 Shader Processing Units but the 865G does not have an entry, so the two GPUs cannot be reliably compared in this area.
The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB requires 320 Watts to run and the 865G requires 13 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 750 Watts for the RTX 3080. The RTX 3080 requires 307 Watts more than the 865G to run. The difference is significant enough that the RTX 3080 may have an adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the 865G.

Mini Review | Overview The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB is a High-End Graphics Card based on the Ampere Architecture. This card was also rumoured to be called the GeForce GTX 2180. Architecture It equips an Ampere GPU Codenamed GA102 which is a First Gen Ampere GPU and has 20 SM activated, offering 3386 Shader Processing Units, 212 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The Ampere architecture provides the world's best consumer support for real-time ray-tracing technology, or RTX. It also has 544 Tensor Cores for AI purposes. GPU Name: GA102 GPU The central unit runs at 1440MHz and goes up to 1755MHz in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU accesses a 10GB frame buffer of Third Gen GDDR6X through a 320-bit memory interface, while the Memory Clock Operates at 1750MHz, or 14GHz effective. Total memory bandwidth is 448 Gb/s. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 320W, it requires at least a 750W PSU with available two 8-pin power connector. Performance Predicted performance of the GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB suggests it will be faster than the Geforce RTX 2080 Ti, making it a suitable graphics card for 4K gaming. System Suggestions The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840x2160. We recommend a High-End Processor and 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | Intel 865G comes embedded on the Pentium 4, Pentium D, Pentium Extreme Edition, Celeron, Celeron D CPUS and features an Integrated GPU called Intel Extreme Graphics 2. It only supports DirectX up to 7.0 so even DirectX 8/9 games aren't (hardware) supported. The performance is ridiculous and even very old games (before 2003) might require reduced settings. Today's games are, obviously, unplayable. |
