GeForce RTX 3060 Ti vs Quadro P620: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce RTX 3060 Ti

2020

Why buy it

  • 421.8% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 134% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 50.9 vs 21.8 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs $170 MSRP).
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • 300% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 2 GB).
  • Better long-term bet: Ampere (2020−2025) on 8nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 400% higher power demand at 200W vs 40W.
  • 66.9% longer card at 242mm vs 145mm.

Quadro P620

2018

Why buy it

  • Costs $229 less on MSRP ($170 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).
  • Draws 40W instead of 200W, a 160W reduction.
  • Measures 145mm instead of 242mm, a 97mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 3060 Ti across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 21.8 vs 50.9 G3D/$ ($170 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 421.8% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 449.3% in PassMark G3D (20,312 vs 3,698), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 8 GB vs 2 GB of VRAM, the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 8nm process instead of 14nm, and 38 vs 0 ray-tracing units. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 3060 Ti makes the most sense to buy today. It is $229 more expensive on MSRP at $399 vs $170, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 134% (50.9 vs 21.8), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
