Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU better than Radeon Pro 465?

Yes. GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 17,400 vs 4,538 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is a 2023 card with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while Radeon Pro 465 is a 2016 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?

GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2016, 283.4% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 8 GB instead of 2 GB, and better frame-generation support with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023) instead of FSR upscaling. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus $500 MSRP, and you are getting 283.4% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 465 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon Pro 465 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon Pro 465 is 2016 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM, 4,538 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
