GeForce RTX 4060 vs Radeon RX 6500M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4060 GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 6500M in gaming.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 6500M has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the Radeon RX 6500M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the Radeon RX 6500M has a significantly lower TDP at 50 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 at 200 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4060 is faster than the Radeon RX 6500M.
