GeForce GTX 960 vs Radeon RX 7600 comparison

For gaming, the Radeon RX 7600 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 960 in our tests.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Radeon RX 7600 has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 960 has a slightly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the Radeon RX 7600 at 165 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 7600 is better than the GeForce GTX 960.
