What does this comparison mean?

Moving from RTX 2060 6GB to RTX 3060 Ti 8GB increases the recorded result from 124 to 179 FPS and graphics memory from 6GB to 8GB. The uplift is 44.4% in this workload with 2GB more capacity; the benchmark cannot tell us how much of the difference comes from memory rather than the rest of the GPU.

RTX 2060 6GB has 6GB and RTX 3060 Ti 8GB has 8GB 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.

The two GPUs in context

RTX 2060 6GB

The original RTX 2060 launched in January 2019 with Turing architecture and 6GB of GDDR6, including RT and Tensor cores.

RTX 3060 Ti 8GB

The original RTX 3060 Ti is an 8GB GDDR6 Ampere model introduced in December 2020. Its later GDDR6X configuration is a separate variant.

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. Full benchmark method.
