Radeon RX 560 vs GeForce RTX 4060 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4060 GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 560 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4060 has a significantly 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 GeForce RTX 4060 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Radeon RX 560 has a significantly lower TDP at 80 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 at 200 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 4060 over the Radeon RX 560.
