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

GeForce RTX 4060

2023

Why buy it

  • 104.8% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Costs $200 less on MSRP ($299 MSRP vs $499 MSRP).
  • Delivers 493.2% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 65.4 vs 11.0 G3D/$ ($299 MSRP vs $499 MSRP).
  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 53.3% higher power demand at 115W vs 75W.
  • 38.7% longer card at 240mm vs 173mm.

Radeon Pro WX 5100

2016

Why buy it

  • Draws 75W instead of 115W, a 40W reduction.
  • Measures 173mm instead of 240mm, a 67mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 4060 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • 2016 hardware with 8 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 66.9% HIGHER MSRP
    $499 MSRPvs$299 MSRP
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 11.0 vs 65.4 G3D/$ ($499 MSRP vs $299 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 4060 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 104.8% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 255.4% in PassMark G3D (19,548 vs 5,500), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 4060 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 8 GB vs 8 GB of VRAM, native frame generation with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while Radeon Pro WX 5100 has no comparable frame-generation support, a 5nm process instead of 14nm, and 24 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 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $200 cheaper on MSRP at $299 vs $499, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 493.2% (65.4 vs 11.0), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

The clearest feature edge for the GeForce RTX 4060 is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. In games that support it, that can smooth out motion and lift perceived FPS. The Radeon Pro WX 5100 does not have comparable native support in the same tier.The GeForce RTX 4060 gets NVIDIA DLSS, which still tends to look cleaner in motion. The Radeon Pro WX 5100 leans on FSR, which is flexible and widely supported, but usually a bit rougher at the same settings.
