GeForce RTX 3060 Ti vs GeForce RTX 3070

Graphics card comparison for gaming — benchmark scores, estimated framerates and which one suits your build.

The short answer

GeForce RTX 3070 is the faster of the two for gaming, by roughly 19% over the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.

Gap measured from estimated framerates across 4 games, not from benchmark scores — scores rank parts reliably but compress the distance between two fast ones.

Benchmark scores

Estimated FPS at 1440p

Both measured against the same reference processor — a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D — so the graphics card is the variable being tested. Ranges, not exact figures. Measured at 1440p: at 1080p even a fast reference processor caps both cards, and the two columns come back identical.

Fortnite 156–260 GPU 186–309 GPU
CS:GO 252–420 GPU 301–501 GPU
GTA V 96–160 GPU 115–191 GPU
PUBG 119–198 GPU 142–237 GPU

Which suits your build?

These figures hold a reference processor constant. Your own build decides the answer: a faster graphics card buys nothing if the other component is already the limit. Run both against your actual hardware:
