MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT 8G vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GDDR6X

Comparison of GPU cores for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GDDR6X and MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT 8G graphics cards. The GPU core data contains the number of blocks (in the AMD documentation these blocks are called Shader Engine (SE), while Nvidia calls them Graphics Processing Clusters (GPC), words are different, the essence is the same) and ROP/TMUs (Raster Processing Units). These characteristics have a great influence on the GPU computing power.
