3DMark Time Spy

Rendered at QHD or UHD resolutions and making use of DX12 technologies such as asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter and multi-threading, Time Spy is a modern 3DMark benchmark that hints at GPU potential in today's latest games.

We anticipated a performance drop of around 15 per cent compared to RX 6600 XT, and that's exactly what we see in the synthetic 3DMark test. Taming the lightweight GPU is no problem for Gigabyte's triple-fan setup - as evidenced by a chart-topping Stress Test score - but GeForce RTX 3060, at the same $329 MSRP, is going to be a real thorn in the Radeon's side.
