Trade-offs

❌Less VRAM, with 8 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 5.6 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $2,199 MSRP).

Radeon Pro WX 9100

2017

Why buy it

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU better than Radeon Pro WX 9100?

Yes. GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 17,400 vs 12,250 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 WX 9100 is a 2017 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 2017, 42.0% more raw performance headroom, better frame-generation support with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023) instead of FSR upscaling, and a 5nm process instead of 14nm. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.

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 $2,199 MSRP, and you are getting 42.0% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro WX 9100 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon Pro WX 9100 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon Pro WX 9100 is 2017 hardware with 16 GB of VRAM, 12,250 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
