Performance

GPU clock speed

1626 MHz

1552 MHz

The clock speed of the graphics processing unit (GPU).

GPU turbo

2491 MHz

1777 MHz

When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.

pixel rate

159.4 GPixel/s

85.3 GPixel/s

The number of pixels that can be rendered to the screen every second.

floating-point performance

8.93 TFLOPS

9.1 TFLOPS

Floating-point performance is a measurement of the raw processing power of the GPU.

texture rate

279 GTexels/s

142.2 GTexels/s

The number of textured pixels that can be rendered to the screen every second.

GPU memory speed

1750 MHz

The memory clock speed is one aspect that determines the memory bandwidth.

shading units

1792

2560

Shading units (or stream processors) are small processors within the graphics card that are responsible for processing different aspects of the image.

texture mapping units (TMUs)

112

TMUs take textures and map them to the geometry of a 3D scene. More TMUs will typically mean that texture information is processed faster.

render output units (ROPs)

The ROPs are responsible for some of the final steps of the rendering process, writing the final pixel data to memory and carrying out other tasks such as anti-aliasing to improve the look of graphics.

Memory

effective memory speed

14000 MHz

The effective memory clock speed is calculated from the size and data rate of the memory. Higher clock speeds can give increased performance in games and other apps.

maximum memory bandwidth

224 GB/s

This is the maximum rate that data can be read from or stored into memory.

VRAM

8GB

VRAM (video RAM) is the dedicated memory of a graphics card. More VRAM generally allows you to run games at higher settings, especially for things like texture resolution.

GDDR version

GDDR6

Newer versions of GDDR memory offer improvements such as higher transfer rates that give increased performance.

memory bus width

128-bit

A wider bus width means that it can carry more data per cycle. It is an important factor of memory performance, and therefore the general performance of the graphics card.

Supports ECC memory

✔AMD Radeon RX 6600

✔Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

Error-correcting code memory can detect and correct data corruption. It is used when is it essential to avoid corruption, such as scientific computing or when running a server.

Features

DirectX version

DirectX 12 Ultimate

DirectX is used in video games, with newer versions supporting better graphics and features. The latest version is DirectX 12 Ultimate, which includes support for ray tracing, mesh shaders, and variable rate shading (VRS).

OpenGL version

4.6

OpenGL is used in games, with newer versions supporting better graphics.

OpenCL version

2.1

Some apps use OpenCL to apply the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU) for non-graphical computing. Newer versions introduce more functionality and better performance.

Supports multi-display technology

✔AMD Radeon RX 6600

✔Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

The graphics card supports multi-display technology. This allows you to configure multiple monitors in order to create a more immersive gaming experience, such as having a wider field of view.

load GPU temperature

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (AMD Radeon RX 6600)

70 °C

A lower load temperature means that the card produces less heat and its cooling system performs better.

supports ray tracing

✔AMD Radeon RX 6600

✔Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

Ray tracing is an advanced light rendering technique that provides more realistic lighting, shadows, and reflections in games.

Supports 3D

✔AMD Radeon RX 6600

✔Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

Allows you to view in 3D (if you have a 3D display and glasses).

supports DLSS

✖AMD Radeon RX 6600

✔Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is an upscaling technology powered by AI. It allows the graphics card to render games at a lower resolution and upscale them to a higher resolution with near-native visual quality and increased performance. DLSS is only available on select games.

AMD SAM / Intel Resizable BAR

AMD SAM

Intel Resizable BAR

AMD's Smart Access Memory (SAM) and Intel's Resizable BAR are two technologies that allow the CPU to have faster access to the graphics card, which can give a performance boost. It requires a compatible motherboard, graphics card, and CPU.

Ports

has an HDMI output

✔AMD Radeon RX 6600

✔Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

You can output high definition video and audio to a display. This could be an HDMI port, Mini HDMI port, or a USB-C port that supports HDMI.

HDMI ports

More HDMI ports mean that you can simultaneously connect numerous devices, such as video game consoles and set-top boxes.

HDMI version

HDMI 2.1

Newer versions of HDMI support higher bandwidth, which allows for higher resolutions and frame rates.

DisplayPort outputs

Allows you to connect to a display using DisplayPort.

USB-C ports

With more USB-C ports, you are able to connect more devices/peripherals.

DVI outputs

Allows you to connect to a display using DVI.

mini DisplayPort outputs

Allows you to connect to a display using mini-DisplayPort.

General info

Thermal Design Power (TDP)

132W

130W

The thermal design power (TDP) is the maximum amount of power the cooling system needs to dissipate. A lower TDP typically means that it consumes less power.

number of transistors

11060 million

12000 million

A higher transistor count generally indicates a newer, more powerful processor.

semiconductor size

7 nm

8 nm

Small semiconductors provide better performance and reduced power consumption. Chipsets with a higher number of transistors, semiconductor components of electronic devices, offer more computational power. A small form factor allows more transistors to fit on a chip, therefore increasing its performance.

PCI Express (PCIe) version

Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) is a high-speed interface standard for connecting components, such as graphics cards and SSDs, to a motherboard. Newer versions can support more bandwidth and deliver better performance.

warranty period

2 years

3 years

When covered under the manufacturer’s warranty it is possible to get a replacement in the case of a malfunction. Note: This may vary by region.

Has air-water cooling

✖AMD Radeon RX 6600

✖Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

The graphics card uses a combination of water and air to reduce the temperature of the card. This allows it to be overclocked more, increasing performance.
