GeForce RTX 3090 vs Radeon RX 7900 GRE benchmarks

For gaming, the Radeon RX 7900 GRE graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 3090 in our tests.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the GeForce RTX 3090 has significantly more memory with 24 GiB of memory compared to 16 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Radeon RX 7900 GRE has a slightly lower TDP at 260 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3090 at 350 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 7900 GRE is better than the GeForce RTX 3090.
