RTX 3070 vs Radeon RX 6700 XT Gaming PCs: Which Should You Buy?

Two of WebTro's most capable gaming PCs sit close together in price but use very different graphics cards. Here's a straightforward comparison to help you decide.

The two builds compared

RTX 3070: ray tracing and DLSS

The WebTro-0333 pairs the RTX 3070 with a Ryzen 5 5600 and faster Gen4 NVMe storage. Nvidia's RTX 3070 supports ray tracing and DLSS upscaling, which can boost frame rates in supported titles while keeping visual quality high. It's the stronger all-round performer of the two and includes built-in Wi-Fi.

RX 6700 XT: more VRAM for less

The WebTro-GPB0492 uses AMD's RX 6700 XT with 12GB of VRAM — more than the RTX 3070's 8GB — at a lower price point. More VRAM can help at higher resolutions and with texture-heavy modern titles, even though it lacks dedicated ray tracing hardware acceleration and DLSS-style upscaling.

Which should you buy?

• Choose the RTX 3070 (WebTro-0333) if you want ray tracing, DLSS support, faster Gen4 storage and built-in Wi-Fi, and don't mind paying more.
• Choose the RX 6700 XT (WebTro-GPB0492) if you want more VRAM and to save £196, and don't need ray tracing/DLSS features.
