Power limit (TGP): why two RTX 3060 Laptop laptops differ

Laptop makers can set the RTX 3060 Laptop anywhere from 60 W to 140 W. Our estimates assume about 100 W. Near 60 W (thin laptops) expect about 17% fewer FPS; at 140 W about 11% more.

Check the TGP in the laptop's spec sheet or in reviews before you buy. How to check your laptop's gaming specs.

Similar desktop card

In our estimates the RTX 3060 Laptop performs about like a desktop RTX 3060 8GB at 1080p. The desktop RTX 3060, which has the same name, is about 12% faster at 1080p.
