ReadyScore™ range for an RTX 3060

A GPU alone doesn't decide your full ReadyScore™, your CPU and RAM count too (45% GPU, 30% CPU, 25% RAM in our formula, see the GameReady Methodology). Here's the realistic range for an RTX 3060, depending on the rest of your build:

A CPU and RAM that meet our Recommended tier88/100
A CPU and RAM that only meet our Minimum tier66/100

Performance headroom

Two GPUs can show the same 78 to 100 ReadyScore™ range once they clear our Recommended tier, but they are not equally capable. ReadyScore™ measures whether you can run the game acceptably, not how much extra power sits above that floor. This card's expected performance tier for GTA 6: 1080p High, or 1440p on Medium settings.

RTX 3060 across every game we track

GTA 6, Fable and Metro 2039 have different predicted thresholds, so the same card doesn't land in the same place twice. Ranges below assume a paired CPU/RAM anywhere from our predicted Minimum to the top of our predicted Recommended tier.
