What does this comparison mean?
The RX 7600 is ahead of the 3060 12GB in this benchmark despite having only 8GB. This makes the capacity-versus-throughput trade-off explicit.
RTX 3060 12GB has 12GB and RX 7600 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 3060 12GB
The 12GB RTX 3060 made Ampere's feature set available to a broad desktop audience and carried unusually generous memory for its tier. That memory does not make the later 8GB model equivalent, so each needs separate evidence.
RX 7600 8GB
The 8GB RX 7600 brought RDNA 3 to mainstream 1080p gaming with a compact Navi 33 design. It was a competent entry into the new family, while its memory capacity limited how far that role could stretch.

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 above compares the higher model average with the lower one; the score scales every model against the fastest GPU in the current dataset, which scores 100. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS, and the percentage may change with the benchmark dataset.
