Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER better than Radeon RX 7600?
Yes. GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the better GPU overall here. You are getting 46.1% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data, 80.7% higher PassMark G3D performance, DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, and 12 GB vs 8 GB of VRAM. It also comes from 2024 instead of 2023, which helps its case as the more complete modern gaming card.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2024 generation instead of 2023, 80.7% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 12 GB instead of 8 GB, and the stronger feature stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation instead of FSR 3 + AFMF. 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 4070 SUPER is about 122.7% more expensive on MSRP at $599 MSRP versus $269 MSRP, and you are getting 46.1% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 80.7% higher G3D Mark. Radeon RX 7600 still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, Radeon RX 7600 still makes more sense on price alone and remains capable enough for modern gaming.
Is Radeon RX 7600 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
Yes. Radeon RX 7600 is still a strong gaming GPU in 2026: it is very strong for 1080p, good for 1440p, and more limited at 4K. This mostly comes down to price. If you want to stay closer to $269 MSRP, it remains a strong choice; if you are comfortable paying more, GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER earns that extra money with a clearly stronger gaming result and a more complete overall package.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

Both GPUs support Frame Generation technologies, but they achieve it differently. The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER uses DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while the Radeon RX 7600 relies on FSR Frame Generation + AFMF. Both can significantly boost FPS in supported titles, but they are not on the same feature stack.The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER gives access to NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), widely regarding as the superior upscaling method for image quality. The Radeon RX 7600 relies on FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution), which is capable but generally slightly noisier than DLSS in motion.
