Here we present frame rate figures for each graphics card, averaged across all 12 games on test today. These figures can disguise significant variations in performance from game to game, but provide a useful overview of the sort of performance you can expect at each resolution tested.

Across the twelve games tested, the RX 7600 XT comes in 12% faster than the RX 7600 on average. It should go without saying but of course this is highly game dependent – if I didn't test any games that benefit from more than 8GB VRAM, the margins would be even smaller, and to illustrate that, removing TLOU and Ratchet and Clank sees the margin drop to just a 6% gain over the RX 7600. Still, these are the games I've chosen to test and we saw a 12% margin on average, while it's 7% faster than the 4060 and 11% behind the RX 6700 XT.

Up at 1440p, the 7600 XT is still decent and offers 13% better performance than the 7600 non-XT. It's also 8% faster than the both the RTX 4060 and Intel A770 16GB, while the 7600 XT also comes in 13% slower than the RX 6700 XT.
