GeForce GTX 1080 vs Radeon RX 6750 XT comparison

For gaming, the Radeon RX 6750 XT graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1080 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 6750 XT has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the Radeon RX 6750 XT also has a significantly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Radeon RX 6750 XT has significantly more memory with 12 GiB of memory compared to 8 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1080 has a slightly lower TDP at 180 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6750 XT at 250 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 6750 XT is faster than the GeForce GTX 1080.
