Ray tracing 8-game average FPS

Overall, the RTX 4060 averages 49FPS when using ray tracing at 1080p. Not every game is playable without upscaling, but it's significantly faster than the RX 7600, with a 44% advantage over AMD's newest GPU. Even against the RX 6700 XT we're looking at a 15% lead for the RTX 4060, while it's 19% faster than the RTX 3060.

Cost per frame, launch MSRP data

Cost per frame when solely looking at ray tracing performance paints a more positive picture for the RTX 4060. Using the launch MSRP data, it sits at the top of the chart, offering a 12% reduction in cost per frame compared to the closest 30-series challenger, the RTX 3060 Ti.

Cost per frame, current pricing data

Using current pricing data is still fairly favourable to the RTX 4060. The Arc A750 sits at the top of the chart, but the 4060 is only 4% more expensive per frame at 1080p. AMD's closest challenger is the RX 6600, but the 4060 offers 13% better cost per frame.
