GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER vs Radeon RX 6400: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER vs Radeon RX 6400

The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 617% ahead of the Radeon RX 6400. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is comfortable at 4K with upscaling and native 1440p, while the Radeon RX 6400 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the Radeon RX 6400 starts at $390 CAD against $1,149 CAD for the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER wins on performance-per-dollar by about 143%. The Radeon RX 6400 still sits about $231 CAD above its $159 CAD MSRP. The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER still sits about $550 CAD above its $599 CAD MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The Radeon RX 6400 pulls less power (53W vs 220W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern Ada Lovelace architecture on a TSMC N4 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 12GB against 4GB, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Radeon RX 6400's 4GB can fall short.

Generation & Longevity

The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon RX 6400 (Ada Lovelace vs RDNA 2), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 6400 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.

Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER or Radeon RX 6400?

The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the Radeon RX 6400 if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER better than the Radeon RX 6400?
