AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is 17% more efficient per MH, which is what decides the break-even electricity price below. Both machines are modelled with identical assumptions and your own rate.
Side by side
| Measure | Radeon RX 6800 XT | GeForce RTX 3060 Ti |
|---|---|---|
| Hashrate | 62 MH/s | 62 MH/s |
| Power draw | 150 W | 125 W |
| Efficiency | 2.4 W/MH | 2.0 W/MH (better on this measure) |
| Revenue / day | $0.00 | $0.00 |
| Electricity / day | $0.216 | $0.18 |
| Operating profit / day | -$0.216 | -$0.18 (better on this measure) |
| Operating profit / month | -$6.48 | -$5.40 (better on this measure) |
| Break-even electricity | $0.00 | $0.00 (better on this measure) |
| Cooling | Air | Air |
| Home suitable | Yes | Yes |
Both machines assume a 1% pool fee at the current ETC price and network difficulty, running continuously. A highlighted figure is the better of the two on that measure — marked only where one genuinely is better, not on hashrate, power or revenue, which reflect the size of the machine rather than its quality. Highlighting is not a recommendation, and no manufacturer pays for placement here. Your rate is saved in this browser and applies across the site.
Our view
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT
62 MH/s · 150 W · 2.4 W/MH
Low power draw for its output, which makes it one of the more forgiving cards on an expensive domestic tariff.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
62 MH/s · 125 W · 2.0 W/MH
The efficiency pick among older cards: the same output as an RX 6800 XT for less power. A sensible entry point for a first rig.
These are editorial judgements, not paid placements. Neither manufacturer has any influence over the ordering or the verdicts, and no purchase links on this page are affiliate links. Purchase price, warranty and availability are excluded because we do not yet publish a verified retailer feed — a comparison that invented them would be worse than one that omits them.
