Nvidia RTX 4060 Review ft. MSI

Using the graphics card-only power draw figures presented earlier in the review, here we present performance per Watt on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 1080p.

Per-Game Results at 1080p:

12-Game Average at 1080p:

Combining the performance and power data, we take a look at efficiency levels – presented here as performance per Watt. We know Ada Lovelace is a very efficient architecture, though the 4060 isn't quite as impressive as the 4060 Ti here, as performance per Watt is actually reduced by 6%. We're talking fine margins though, and it is still a generation ahead of the RX 7600, offering 33% better efficiency than AMD's latest GPU.

Ray tracing results

As a bonus, we now include the power figures for all eight games we test with ray tracing enabled.

8-Game ray tracing average:

We see similar results when looking at the ray tracing average, but this time the 4060 is almost twice as efficient as the RX 7600 due to its superior ray tracing performance while also offering lower power draw.
