(Image credit: Nvidia) Nvidia GeForce RTX 30-series GPU recommendations Which one you should get, then, depends mostly on how hard you intend to push your PC, and with which programs. In other words: While the horsepower varies considerably among the Nvidia 3060, 3060 Ti, 3070, 30, they have a set of core capabilities in common. (What you’ll be able to do in 8K will no doubt vary significantly between, say, the 3060 and the 3090, but the potential is there.) Finally, they all support up to four monitors, if you’re really into productivity usage.

And, in theory, they can all support screen resolutions up to 8K. They’re all VR-ready, and HDMI 2.1-compatible. Nvidia FreeStyle, ShadowPlay, Highlights, G-Sync and GPU boost work on all of the 30-series cards. They all support 2nd-generation ray tracing they all use the Nvidia Ampere architecture they all make use of Nvidia DLSS (sort of an AI upscaler for games). The good news is that for all of their differences, the five Nvidia GeForce RTX 30-series GPUs compared here have a plethora of features in common.

Nvidia also has recommendations for how much overall power you’d need for a PC with each card installed, but we didn’t include that data here, since picking a power supply is a whole separate topic.

In a nutshell, GDDR6X has more bandwidth than GDDR6 memory, and therefore (theoretically) has the capacity to run more demanding games at higher settings.įinally, Power Draw refers to how much power the GPU can draw, by itself, while operating under a full graphical load. A higher Boost Clock speed generally means better performance, but it's dependent on a lot of other factors, including your individual PC's hardware. There’s also a Base Clock stat, but Nvidia GPUs will draw extra resources while gaming, assuming you have a powerful system that's not otherwise occupied.

Generally speaking, the more CUDA Cores a GPU has, the more complex data it can churn through quickly.īoost Clock refers to the maximum speed a GPU can achieve if it has the power available and is running cool enough. They work similarly to how a CPU works on your computer. Nvidia CUDA Cores refer to parallel data processing units within a GPU.
