NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti and AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT sit within a few percent of each other on our index. Treat them as equivalent in raw performance and decide on price, power draw and — for graphics cards — video memory instead.
| Specification | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti | AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer | NVIDIA | AMD |
| Architecture | Pascal | RDNA 2 |
| Relative performance index | 125 (better) | 122 |
| Video memory | 11 GB | 12 GB (better) |
| Memory type | GDDR5X | GDDR6 |
| Memory bus | 352-bit (better) | 192-bit |
| Release year | 2017 | 2021 (better) |
| Board power | 250 W | 230 W (better) |
| Suggested PSU | 600 W (better) | 650 W |
| Hardware ray tracing | No | Yes |
| Upscaling support | FSR 3, XeSS | FSR 3 |
| DirectX | 12 | 12 Ultimate |
Green marks the stronger figure for that row only — for power draw and PSU requirement, lower is treated as better. Performance indexes are CanMyPcPlay estimates; read how they are derived.
Which should you pick?
- Check video memory, not just speed. A faster card with less VRAM can perform worse in recent titles at high texture settings.
- Check power and clearance. Confirm your PSU and case can take the card — the build checker does this.
- Upscaling support differs. DLSS is NVIDIA-only; FSR and XeSS run more broadly.
