Radeon RX 580X vs GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop beats the Radeon RX 580X in gaming performance.

The Radeon RX 580X 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. Despite this, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Radeon RX 580X has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop is faster than the Radeon RX 580X.
