GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop vs Radeon RX 6700S specs and performance

For gaming, the Radeon RX 6700S graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 6700S 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 6700S also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Radeon RX 6700S has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop has a slightly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6700S at 80 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 6700S is better than the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop.
