What does this comparison mean?

The RX 9060 XT 16GB leads the GTX 1080 Ti here and offers 5GB more memory. The GTX 1080 Ti's 11GB was distinctive, so do not assume every newer card exceeds it. This specific 16GB Radeon does, while the 8GB RX 9060 XT would be a capacity reduction.

GTX 1080 Ti 11GB has 11GB and RX 9060 XT 16GB has 16GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.

How the figures are compared

Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.

GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. RX 9060 XT 16GB uses the 6-card Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB family total; GPUsed has not split it by this exact variant. Full benchmark method.
