Radeon RX 6700 XT vs GeForce RTX 5060 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 5060 GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 6700 XT in gaming.

The Radeon RX 6700 XT 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 6700 XT 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 GeForce RTX 5060 has a significantly lower TDP at 145 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6700 XT at 230 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 GeForce RTX 5060 is better than the Radeon RX 6700 XT.
