Radeon RX 6700M vs GeForce GTX 1060 3GB comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX 6700M GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB in gaming.

The GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 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 Radeon RX 6700M 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 GTX 1060 3GB has a slightly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6700M at 135 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 6700M is faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB.
