GeForce RTX 3060 Ti

2020

Why buy it

✅133.6% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅Costs $100 less on MSRP ($399 MSRP vs $499 MSRP).
✅Delivers 361.9% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 50.9 vs 11.0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs $499 MSRP).
✅Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
✅More future proof: Ampere (2020−2025) on 8nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌166.7% higher power demand at 200W vs 75W.
❌39.9% longer card at 242mm vs 173mm.

Radeon Pro WX 5100

2016

Why buy it

✅Draws 75W instead of 200W, a 125W reduction.
✅Measures 173mm instead of 242mm, a 69mm 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.
❌No DLSS support; it relies on FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead.
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2016-era hardware with 8 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 3060 Ti better than Radeon Pro WX 5100?

Yes. GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is clearly the better overall GPU here. GeForce RTX 3060 Ti averages 133.6% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 20,312 vs 5,500 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is a 2020 card with DLSS Super Resolution, while Radeon Pro WX 5100 is a 2016 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 2016, 269.3% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 8 GB instead of 8 GB, 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 today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is about $100 cheaper on MSRP at $399 MSRP versus $499 MSRP, and you are getting 133.6% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 269.3% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 361.9%. That is why the better overall card still comes out as the smarter buy today, not just the faster one.

Is Radeon Pro WX 5100 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. Radeon Pro WX 5100 is still a strong modern gaming GPU: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It remains a good buy when you can get it meaningfully cheaper than the alternative around $499 MSRP, even if GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is still the cleaner recommendation on overall value today.
