Benchmark comparison

Estimated seconds to render one frame of each standard Blender benchmark scene. Lower is faster.

These timings are derived from Blender Open Data benchmark medians and should be treated as comparative estimates, not guaranteed real-project render times.

Which GPU makes more sense?

RTX 3090 is the stronger Blender rendering pick here, and both cards have the same VRAM capacity.

Blender render speed

RTX 3090 leads by 81.0% in the Renderjuice Blender benchmark model (5,825 vs 3,218). For render-time-first decisions, that is the card to prioritize.

VRAM and scene headroom

Both cards have 24 GB of VRAM, so the decision is less about scene capacity and more about render speed, architecture, power draw, and price.

Power and cooling

TITAN RTX is the lower-power option at 280 W TDP, compared with 350 W for RTX 3090. If render speed is close, that can make TITAN RTX easier to cool and run quietly.

Upgrade decision

RTX 3090 is both the newer and faster Blender rendering choice here. The main reason to choose TITAN RTX would be price, availability, existing ownership, or a specific workstation requirement.

Quick take on RTX 3090 vs TITAN RTX

RTX 3090 leads the Blender benchmark score by 81.0%.

Fastest in Blender: RTX 3090 5,825.23 score.

Lowest power draw: TITAN RTX 280 W TDP.

Both GPUs ship with 24 GB of VRAM, so the tradeoff is more about speed, architecture, and efficiency than memory capacity.

If you are deciding between these cards for Blender, focus first on Blender benchmark score, VRAM capacity, memory bandwidth, and whether your scenes are likely to benefit more from raw speed or extra memory headroom. The comparison table above keeps those tradeoffs in one place.
