Trade-offs

❌48.1% higher power demand at 160W vs 108W.
❌15.4% longer card at 240mm vs 208mm.

Radeon HD 5770

2009

Why buy it

✅Costs $240 less on MSRP ($159 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).
✅Draws 108W instead of 160W, a 52W reduction.
✅Measures 208mm instead of 240mm, a 32mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (1,348 vs 22,651).
❌Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2009-era hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 8.5 vs 56.8 G3D/$ ($159 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4060 Ti better than Radeon HD 5770?

Yes. GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 22,651 vs 1,348 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is a 2023 card with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while Radeon HD 5770 is a 2009 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 Ti is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2009, 1580.3% 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 Ti is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is about 150.9% more expensive on MSRP at $399 MSRP versus $159 MSRP, and you are getting 1580.3% higher G3D Mark. Radeon HD 5770 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon HD 5770 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon HD 5770 is 2009 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM, 1,348 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

A critical advantage for the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. This allows it to generate entire frames using AI/Algorithms, essentially doubling the frame rate in CPU-bound scenarios or heavy ray-tracing titles. The Radeon HD 5770 lacks specific hardware/driver support for this native frame generation tier.The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti gives access to NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), widely regarding as the superior upscaling method for image quality. The Radeon HD 5770 relies on FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution), which is capable but generally slightly noisier than DLSS in motion.
