Radeon RX 6950 XT vs GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the Radeon RX 6950 XT graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop in our tests.

The Radeon RX 6950 XT has a significantly 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 6950 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 GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6950 XT at 335 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 6950 XT is better than the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop.
