Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB
The Radeon RX 6800 is significantly faster, around 19% ahead of the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1440p.
Price & Value
The Radeon RX 6800 currently lists from $5,571 SEK, $6 SEK less than the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB at $5,577 SEK. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 6800 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 19%. The Radeon RX 6800 still sits about $4,992 SEK above its $579 SEK MSRP. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB still sits about $5,178 SEK above its $399 SEK MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 160W against 250W, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Ada Lovelace architecture on a TSMC N4 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
VRAM favors the Radeon RX 6800 at 16GB versus 8GB on the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB — that extra 8GB matters most at 4K, with high-res texture packs, and for content-creation/local-AI work.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB is roughly 3 years newer than the Radeon RX 6800 (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 4060 Ti 8GB brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 6800 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 4060 Ti 8GB or Radeon RX 6800?
The Radeon RX 6800 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB if you find it at a steep discount.
