GeForce RTX 3060 Ti

2020

Why buy it

✅+1189.7% higher PassMark G3D performance.
✅Delivers 223.2% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 50.9 vs 15.8 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs $100 MSRP).
✅Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
✅1500% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 512 MB).
✅More future proof: Ampere (2020−2025) on 8nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌300% higher power demand at 200W vs 50W.

Radeon 630

2019

Why buy it

✅Costs $299 less on MSRP ($100 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).
✅Draws 50W instead of 200W, a 150W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (1,575 vs 20,312).
❌Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌No DLSS support; it relies on FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead.
❌Poor future-proofing: 2019-era hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 15.8 vs 50.9 G3D/$ ($100 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 3060 Ti better than Radeon 630?

Yes. GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 20,312 vs 1,575 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is a 2020 card with DLSS Super Resolution, while Radeon 630 is a 2019 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2020 generation instead of 2019, 1189.7% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 8 GB instead of 512 MB, and the stronger feature stack with DLSS Super Resolution instead of FSR upscaling. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is about 299.0% more expensive on MSRP at $399 MSRP versus $100 MSRP, and you are getting 1189.7% higher G3D Mark. Radeon 630 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon 630 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon 630 is 2019 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM, 1,575 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
