We put the Nvidia RTX4060Ti and AMD RX6700XT head-to-head, and there's a clear winner between the two graphicscards.
You generally expect that a new generation of graphics cards will outperform the previous generation, but we’re in a precarious spot this time around. Nvidia’s recent RTX 4060 Ti hasn’t been met with a warm reception, and cheaper last-gen options like the RX 6700 XT have looked increasingly attractive as their prices come down.
Stock is drying up for the RX 6700 XT, but I found models as cheap as $310 online. Some models are closer to $350, and I even found one selling for $390, but you can expect to spend somewhere in the range of $310 to $350 if you pick one up now. That impacts performance, which you can see in my testing. The RX 6700 XT scales better up to higher resolutions than the RTX 4060 Ti, making it a solid option for 1440p gaming. In addition, the rising VRAM demands in modern games means it’s much better equipped to handle new releases, while the RTX 4060 Ti seems destined to be limited by its 8GB of memory.
What’s interesting is how the RX 6700 XT closes the gap at 1440p compared to 1080p. Its 12GB of VRAM helps in demanding games like The Last of Us Part 1, but it also allows the card to maintain high performance as you increase the resolution. That isn’t to say the RX 6700 XT is down and out. In less demanding ray tracing titles, such as Returnal and Resident Evil 4, the graphics card still provides playable frame rates. In the most demanding situations, however, the RX 6700 XT falls far behind while the RTX 4060 Ti maintains solid performance.
