About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q2 2021 with a MSRP of $1,199. It is built on the Ampere GPU microarchitecture (codename GA102) and is manufactured on a 8 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 3080 Ti has 12 GB of GDDR6X memory, with a 1,188 MHz memory clock and a 384 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 912.4 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 3080 Ti includes 10,240 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,365 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,665 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 320 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 112 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 320 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 80 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 3080 Ti occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 750 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 350 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 3080 Ti has the 16th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 58.30% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 60,980 score and $1,199 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 50.86. This is the 64th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT GPU

The AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q1 2020 with a MSRP of $279. It is built on the RDNA 1.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Navi 10) and is manufactured on a 7 nm process.

Memory

The RX 5600 XT has 6 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,500 MHz memory clock and a 192 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 288 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RX 5600 XT includes 2,304 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,130 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,560 MHz. It usually operates at 1,375 MHz during typical gaming workloads. Complementing the processing units are 144 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RX 5600 XT occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 150 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RX 5600 XT has the 70th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 29.93% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 31,310 score and $279 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 112.22. This is the 13th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
