Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

Radeon R9 Fury is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 13.7% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 0.3% in PassMark G3D (9,521 vs 9,493), so the answer here is pretty clean.

Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?

Intel Arc Pro A60 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: a 6nm process instead of 28nm, 16 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2023 generation instead of 2015. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

Intel Arc Pro A60 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $169 cheaper on MSRP at $380 vs $549, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 44% (25.0 vs 17.3), which is enough to swing the recommendation its way. Radeon R9 Fury still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.
