Radeon Vega 8 vs GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is faster than the Radeon Vega 8 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop 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. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 8 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 Vega 8 has a significantly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop at 115 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 GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop is better than the Radeon Vega 8.
