Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 4070 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 60.2% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 113.4% in PassMark G3D (26,919 vs 12,615), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 4070 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 12 GB vs 8 GB of VRAM, native frame generation with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023), while Radeon Pro WX 8200 has no comparable frame-generation support, a 5nm process instead of 14nm, and 46 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 4070 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $400 cheaper on MSRP at $599 vs $999, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 255.9% (44.9 vs 12.6), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

The clearest feature edge for the GeForce RTX 4070 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 8200 does not have comparable native support in the same tier.The GeForce RTX 4070 gets NVIDIA DLSS, which still tends to look cleaner in motion. The Radeon Pro WX 8200 leans on FSR, which is flexible and widely supported, but usually a bit rougher at the same settings.
