GeForce RTX 3060 vs Radeon RX Vega 11 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3060 GPU is faster than the Radeon RX Vega 11 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 3060 has a significantly 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 GeForce RTX 3060 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.

In addition, the Radeon RX Vega 11 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3060 at 170 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3060 over the Radeon RX Vega 11.
