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

  • +204.2% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • Delivers 103.5% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 65.4 vs 32.1 G3D/$ ($299 MSRP vs $200 MSRP).
  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 4 GB).
  • Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 187.5% higher power demand at 115W vs 40W.
  • 53.8% longer card at 240mm vs 156mm.

T600

2021

Why buy it

  • Costs $99 less on MSRP ($200 MSRP vs $299 MSRP).
  • Draws 40W instead of 115W, a 75W reduction.
  • Measures 156mm instead of 240mm, a 84mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower PassMark G3D performance (6,425 vs 19,548).
  • Less VRAM, with 4 GB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • GeForce RTX 4060 is the safer long-term pick here because the hardware is newer and the feature stack is stronger.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 32.1 vs 65.4 G3D/$ ($200 MSRP vs $299 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 4060 is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 204.2% in PassMark G3D (19,548 vs 6,425), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
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 4 GB of VRAM, the newer feature stack, with DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) and DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while T600 is limited to no meaningful modern upscaling stack and no comparable frame-generation support, a 5nm process instead of 12nm, 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 $99 more expensive on MSRP at $299 vs $200, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 103.5% (65.4 vs 32.1), 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 T600 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 T600 leans on FSR, which is flexible and widely supported, but usually a bit rougher at the same settings.
