In this post, we’ve put together a full comparison of two of the best-performing high-end GPUs. With full side-by-side comparisons, features, and benchmarks, we’ll help you figure out which graphics card is best for your situation. Which is better, the NVIDIA 3080-Ti or the AMD 6900 XT?
Graphics Processor: GA102 Shader Cores: 10240 TMUs: 320 ROPs: 112 VRAM Type: GDDR6 VRAM Capacity: 12 GB Bus Width: 384 bit
Graphics Processor: Navi 21 Shader Cores: 5120 TMUs: 320 ROPs: 128 VRAM Type: GDDR6 VRAM Capacity: 16 GB Bus Width: 256 bit
AMD released the 6900 XT ahead of schedule on October 28th, 2020. The 6900 XT was originally intended to compete with NVIDIA’s RTX 3080, which was released in September 2020.
– Both the 3080-Ti and 6900 XT are compatible with DirectX 12 Ultimate. – Both cards use the latest DDR6 video memory standards. – The 3080-Ti and 6900 XT both have great Ray Tracing capabilities.
The 3080-Ti is more power-hungry, with a TDP rating of 350 watts. It is fed through two 6-pin power connectors and the manufacturer recommends a minimum of 750-watt power supply, although you should have a higher wattage just to be on the safe side.
The 6900 XT isn’t much better, with a TDP rating of 300 watts. You’ll need two 8-pin power connectors to provide enough juice to run this GPU.
