What does this comparison mean?

GPUsed's continuous 1080p results put the RTX 4060 Ti 8GB at 211 FPS and the RTX 3060 Ti 8GB at 179 FPS. That is a 17.9% gain using the 3060 Ti as the starting point. Both have 8GB, so this is not a memory-capacity upgrade. Ada's DLSS 3 Frame Generation is a separate feature in supported games; it is outside this benchmark. Compare the price and power needs of the exact board before buying.

Both variants have 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 Ti 8GB

The RTX 3060 Ti compressed much of Ampere's upper-tier performance into a lower rung of the family. Its strong launch positioning makes it a notable 30-series card, though its historical role is less singular than the generation's flagship.

RTX 4060 Ti 8GB

The 8GB RTX 4060 Ti mixed excellent efficiency and Ada features with a narrow memory specification for its tier. Its modest generational uplift makes this a more contested 60 Ti card than the earlier 3060 Ti.

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.
