The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is dramatically faster, around 460% ahead of the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 7900 XTX is comfortable at 4K with upscaling and native 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Radeon RX 7900 XTX starts at $180 BRL against $1,329 BRL for the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX wins on performance-per-dollar by about 4045%. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is trading below its $999 BRL MSRP — a genuine deal. The GeForce RTX 3050 6GB still sits about $1,160 BRL above its $169 BRL MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 3050 6GB pulls less power (130W vs 355W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon RX 7900 XTX draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 24GB against 6GB, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB's 6GB can fall short.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 7900 XTX offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 3050 6GB or Radeon RX 7900 XTX?
The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB if you find it at a steep discount.
