GeForce RTX 4060 vs Radeon RX 5700 XT: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 4060 vs Radeon RX 5700 XT
The GeForce RTX 4060 is noticeably faster, around 10% ahead of the Radeon RX 5700 XT. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce RTX 4060 starts at $308 GBP against $763 GBP for the Radeon RX 5700 XT. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 4060 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 172%. The Radeon RX 5700 XT still sits about $364 GBP above its $399 GBP MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 4060 draws just 115W versus 225W for the Radeon RX 5700 XT, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Ada Lovelace architecture on a TSMC N4 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 4060 is roughly 4 years newer than the Radeon RX 5700 XT (Ada Lovelace vs RDNA), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 4060 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 XT 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 or Radeon RX 5700 XT?
The GeForce RTX 4060 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 5700 XT if you find it at a steep discount.
