GeForce RTX 3060 vs GeForce GTX TITAN X specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX TITAN X in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 3060 has a slightly 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 RTX 3060 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 3060 has a significantly lower TDP at 170 W when compared to the GeForce GTX TITAN X at 250 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3060 over the GeForce GTX TITAN X.
