Notes on 7 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Board power: NVIDIA's table shows 165 or 160 W for RTX 4060 Ti; Tom's and TechSpot list 160 W for the 8GB model.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's 550 W minimum assumes a Ryzen 9 5900X-class system; your build may need more.
  3. 3NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Power connectors: The card takes a 16-pin connector; NVIDIA includes an 8-pin PCIe adapter in the box.
  4. 4AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, HDMI version: AMD's spec page lists HDMI 2.1; its own press release and Notebookcheck state HDMI 2.1a.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, DisplayPort version: Notebookcheck lists the DisplayPort 2.1 link rate as UHBR13.5; AMD notes DP 2.1 support depends on AIB designs.
  6. 6NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Card length: Founders Edition length; partner cards vary by manufacturer.
  7. 7NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, Card height: NVIDIA labels this 'Width' (slot edge to card top); its clearance text cites 98 mm for the card.

Performance and Compute

The Radeon RX 7800 XT delivers 37.3 TFLOPS of FP32 compute power. This gives it a major advantage over the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, which handles 22 TFLOPS.

Buyers focused on raw processing power will find the AMD card handles heavy compute loads more effectively.

Memory and Cache

The Radeon card packs 16 GB of GDDR6 video memory on a 256-bit bus, backed by 64 MB of last-level cache. In comparison, the NVIDIA card features 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus with 32 MB of cache.

The larger memory buffer and wider bus on the AMD card provide significantly higher bandwidth for demanding textures and high-resolution gaming.

Power and Efficiency

The GeForce card operates at a board power of 160 W and requires a 550 W recommended system power supply. The AMD option draws 263 W and calls for a 700 W power supply.

NVIDIA wins on energy efficiency, making it the easier drop-in upgrade for systems with modest power supplies.
