GeForce RTX 4060 Ti vs Radeon R7 M440: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce RTX 4060 Ti

2023

Why buy it

  • 1895.8% more average FPS across 48 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 1790.2% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 56.8 vs 3.0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs $300 MSRP).
  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • 1500% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 512 MB).
  • Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 113.3% higher power demand at 160W vs 75W.

Radeon R7 M440

2016

Why buy it

  • Costs $99 less on MSRP ($300 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).
  • Draws 75W instead of 160W, a 85W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 4060 Ti across 48 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • 2016 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 3.0 vs 56.8 G3D/$ ($300 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 1895.8% in average FPS across 48 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 2414% in PassMark G3D (22,651 vs 901), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 8 GB vs 512 MB of VRAM, native frame generation with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while Radeon R7 M440 has no comparable frame-generation support, a 5nm process instead of 28nm, and 34 vs 0 ray-tracing units. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti makes the most sense to buy today. It is $99 more expensive on MSRP at $399 vs $300, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 1790.2% (56.8 vs 3.0), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
