GeForce GTX 780 Ti vs GeForce GTX 1060 5GB specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB beats the GeForce GTX 780 Ti in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB 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 GeForce GTX 1060 5GB 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.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB has a significantly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 780 Ti at 250 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 GeForce GTX 1060 5GB is faster than the GeForce GTX 780 Ti.
