Ratchet and Clank is another game where AMD GPUs do struggle, this time showing the 9060 XT 16GB lagging behind the 5060 Ti 16GB by 15%. However, it's also a game where there's benefit to more than 8GB of VRAM, even at 1080p without ray tracing, given the AMD GPU is no less than 32% faster than the 5060 Ti 8GB.

Up at 1440p, the 9060 XT 16GB is still playable, hitting 64fps on average, though it still lags behind the 5060 Ti 16GB but clearly beats the 8GB model.
