Radeon RX 6700M vs GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 6700M in gaming.

In our comparison, the Radeon RX 6700M has a significantly 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. In addition, the Radeon RX 6700M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Radeon RX 6700M has significantly more memory with 10 GiB of memory compared to 5.97 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop over the Radeon RX 6700M.
