AMD RX 7600 XT vs Nvidia RTX 4060
1. Price- Nvidia RTX 4060 is Cheaper
The AMD RX 7600 XT is more expensive than the RTX 4060. To be specific, the new AMD RX 7600 XT is priced at $330 at launch. While the Nvidia RTX 4060 is more affordable with a price of $295. Both graphics cards are now available for purchase. You can use the boxes below to buy either of them.
2. 1080p Gaming Performance- AMD RX 7600 XT is Faster
Both are mainstream graphics cards and for how much they cost, they are made primarily for 1080p gaming. And so we had them tested in 1080p medium and 1080p Ultra resolutions.
The AMD RX 7600 XT is 6% faster than the Nvidia RTX 4060 at 1080p Ultra gaming, and 5% faster at 1080p medium gaming. Check the tables below:
Nvidia RTX 4060 (1080P ULTRA) | AMD RX 7600 XT (1080P ULTRA) | |
Watch Dogs Legion | 82 FPS | 92 FPS |
Borderland 3 | 89 FPS | 114 FPS |
Red Dead Redemption 2 | 67 FPS | 71 FPS |
Flight Simulator | 68 FPS | 74 FPS |
Forza Horizon 5 | 101 FPS | 105 FPS |
Far Cry 6 | 125 FPS | 135 FPS |
Nvidia RTX 4060 (1080P MEDIUM) | AMD RX 7600 XT (1080P MEDIUM) | |
Watch Dogs Legion | 162 FPS | 178 FPS |
Borderland 3 | 193 FPS | 206 FPS |
Red Dead Redemption 2 | 135 FPS | 148 FPS |
