Radeon RX 6800 XT vs RTX A2000 benchmarks

For gaming, the Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics card is better than the RTX A2000 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 6800 XT 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 6800 XT also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the RTX A2000 has a significantly lower TDP at 70 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6800 XT at 300 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 6800 XT is faster than the RTX A2000.
