Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4070 Ti better than Radeon RX Vega Ryzen 5 5600GT?

Yes. GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 31,578 vs 9,558 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is a 2023 card with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while Radeon RX Vega Ryzen 5 5600GT is a 2020 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 4070 Ti is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2020, 230.4% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 12 GB instead of Unknown, 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 4070 Ti is the smarter buy today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $799 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 230.4% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 100+%. That is why the better overall card still comes out as the smarter buy today, not just the faster one.

Is Radeon RX Vega Ryzen 5 5600GT still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. Radeon RX Vega Ryzen 5 5600GT is still a strong modern gaming GPU: it is still fine for 1080p, but 1440p and especially 4K require more compromise. It remains a good buy when you can get it meaningfully cheaper than the alternative around an unclear MSRP, even if GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is still the cleaner recommendation on overall value today.
