Verdict
At the end of the day, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (130W) shows who’s the boss and wins by a hefty margin. However, the 75W GPU is a good performer as well and both GPUs are ready for 144 Hz displays with Epic Quality enabled. If you own an even faster display like 240 Hz or even a 300 Hz panel, just switch to High or even Low – the game looks okay even on this preset.
