Radeon RX 5600 vs GeForce RTX 4060 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4060 beats the Radeon RX 5600 in gaming performance.

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 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 5600 has a slightly lower TDP at 150 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 at 200 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4060 is better than the Radeon RX 5600.
