GeForce GTX 1060 vs Radeon Pro 5300 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Radeon Pro 5300 beats the GeForce GTX 1060 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1060 has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation.

In addition, the Radeon Pro 5300 has a slightly lower TDP at 85 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 at 120 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon Pro 5300 is faster than the GeForce GTX 1060.
