What does this comparison mean?

The RTX 3070 has 8GB against the RX 5600 XT's 6GB and records a higher average. This uses the Radeon at 14Gbps, and the cross-vendor move should still be checked against the software you use.

RX 5600 XT 6GB (14Gbps BIOS) has 6GB and RTX 3070 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.

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 5600 XT 6GB (14Gbps BIOS) uses the 27-card Radeon RX 5600 XT 6GB family total; GPUsed has not split it by this exact variant. Full benchmark method.
