For floating-point performance, the Palit card also leads with 24.53 TFLOPS compared to the Gainward's 19.81 TFLOPS, suggesting it may handle more intensive computations.

Regarding texture rate, the Gainward card offers 309.6 GTexels/s, while the Palit card has a significantly higher rate of 383.3 GTexels/s, again showcasing a performance advantage. Both cards share the same GPU memory speed of 1750 MHz, shading units of 3840 (Gainward) and 4608 (Palit), texture mapping units (TMUs) of 120 (Gainward) and 144 (Palit), and 48 render output units (ROPs). Additionally, both cards support Double Precision Floating Point (DPFP).

Both the Gainward GeForce RTX 5060 Python III OC and the Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Infinity 3 OC 16GB feature an effective memory speed of 28000 MHz, as well as a maximum memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s. These values are identical between the two cards, suggesting similar memory performance in terms of speed and bandwidth.

However, the VRAM differs between the two models. The Gainward card comes with 8GB of VRAM, while the Palit model offers a significantly larger 16GB of VRAM. This extra memory in the Palit card may be advantageous for handling more demanding tasks, such as high-resolution gaming or professional workloads.

Both cards utilize GDDR7 memory and have a 128-bit memory bus width. Additionally, both support Error-Correcting Code (ECC) memory, ensuring reliability and stability for critical operations.

The Gainward GeForce RTX 5060 Python III OC and the Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Infinity 3 OC 16GB share several key features, including support for DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and OpenCL 3. Both cards are equipped with multi-display technology, ray tracing, 3D support, and DLSS. Additionally, both support Intel Resizable BAR, which enhances performance in certain applications.

One notable difference between the two is the RGB lighting. The Gainward card features RGB lighting, adding customizable aesthetics to the build, while the Palit card does not include RGB lighting.

Both products support up to four displays, and neither includes XeSS (XMX) support. Furthermore, neither card features LHR (Lite Hash Rate) functionality, which means they both have full mining capabilities.

Both the Gainward GeForce RTX 5060 Python III OC and the Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Infinity 3 OC 16GB offer similar port configurations. Each card has one HDMI output with HDMI 2.1b support, as well as three DisplayPort outputs. Neither card includes USB-C ports, DVI outputs, or mini DisplayPort outputs.

The specifications for HDMI, DisplayPort, and other port types are identical between the two products.

Overall, both cards provide the same range of display connectivity options.

Both the Gainward GeForce RTX 5060 Python III OC and the Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Infinity 3 OC 16GB share the same GPU architecture, which is Blackwell, and both use a 5 nm semiconductor size with 21900 million transistors. Additionally, both cards support PCI Express (PCIe) version 5 and lack air-water cooling.

However, there is a difference in Thermal Design Power (TDP). The Gainward card has a TDP of 145W, while the Palit card has a higher TDP of 180W, indicating that the Palit card may consume more power under load.

In terms of physical dimensions, the cards are almost identical, with the Gainward card measuring 291.9 mm in width and 116.5 mm in height, and the Palit card being slightly taller at 116.6 mm, with the same width of 291.9 mm.
