The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is marginally faster, around 3% ahead of the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1440p.

Price & Value

The Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB currently lists from $300 GBP, $50 GBP less than the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti at $350 GBP. Despite being slower, the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB offers the better performance-per-dollar (~13% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is trading below its $599 GBP MSRP β€” a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

At 160W against 290W, the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern RDNA 4 architecture on a TSMC N4 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

Generation & Longevity

The Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB is roughly 4 years newer than the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti (RDNA 4 vs Ampere), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB 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 3070 Ti or Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB?

Choose the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
