Radeon 8060S (integrated) vs GeForce RTX 3050

Speed and memory

In our performance index the Radeon 8060S (integrated) scores 18 and the GeForce RTX 3050 scores 17, which makes the Radeon 8060S (integrated) about 6% faster. That is a small gap, below what most people notice without a frame counter.

The Radeon 8060S (integrated) has shared GB of video memory and the GeForce RTX 3050 has 8 GB. That is a small difference and unlikely to decide anything.

In our estimates for popular games at 1080p on High, the biggest gap is in Grand Theft Auto V Legacy (262 against 249 fps), and the smallest is in Cyberpunk 2077 (50 against 48 fps). Games that are light enough to run above 200 fps on both cards show little difference at all.

Power and value

The Radeon 8060S (integrated) is rated at 60 W and the GeForce RTX 3050 at 130 W. With a mid-range processor that means a power supply of about 450 W for the first and 450 W for the second. A gap of 70 W shows up in heat and fan noise, and in your electricity use over a few years.

We do not have launch prices for both cards, so we cannot compare value. Check current listings for both.

Which one to buy

Choose the Radeon 8060S (integrated) if you want the faster card, and you can accept 0 GB of memory. It makes the most sense at 1440p and above, or on a monitor with a high refresh rate.

Choose the GeForce RTX 3050 if the price gap matters more than the 6% speed difference, and you value the extra video memory. Whichever you pick, check reviews for the games you play, because two cards with similar scores can differ in individual titles.
