Verdict

It seems that both GPUs are fast but the real surprise in this test is the smaller GPU – the GeForce RTX 3060 (130W) is slower but not by much. The bigger GPU is always faster but in most cases, we are talking about differences from 11% to 15%. Given the price of the RTX 3070-based devices, the GeForce RTX 3060 (130W) sounds like a decent deal.
