About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

GeForce GTX 460

2010

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 11.4 vs 0 G3D/$ ($199 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 768 MB vs 2 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Very weak future-proofing: 2010-era hardware with 768 MB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
  • 300% higher power demand at 160W vs 40W.

RadeonT 660M

2023

Why buy it

  • 166.7% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs 768 MB).
  • More future proof: RDNA 2.0 (2020−2025) on 6nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.
  • Draws 40W instead of 160W, a 120W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 11.4 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $199 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce GTX 460 better than RadeonT 660M?
Yes. GeForce GTX 460 is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 2,275 vs 2,221 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce GTX 460 is a 2010 card with no meaningful modern upscaling stack, while RadeonT 660M is a 2023 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
RadeonT 660M is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2010, more VRAM at 2 GB instead of 768 MB, better upscaling support with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, and a 6nm process instead of 40nm. That extra memory headroom makes it the safer pick for newer games, heavier textures, and higher settings over time.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
GeForce GTX 460 can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $199 MSRP. GeForce GTX 460 is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. GeForce GTX 460 is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $199 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 2.4% higher G3D Mark. RadeonT 660M is the newer 2023 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture, lower power draw (40W vs 160W), and future-proofing than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.
When does RadeonT 660M make more sense than GeForce GTX 460?
Yes. RadeonT 660M is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture, lower power draw (40W vs 160W), future-proofing, and staying closer to an unclear MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce GTX 460. The trade-off is that GeForce GTX 460 currently gives you 2.4% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 100+%.
