Quick Answers

So, is Radeon 860M better than GeForce GTX 460 768MB?

Yes. Radeon 860M is clearly the better overall GPU here. GeForce GTX 460 768MB averages 28.4% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 4,838 vs 4,800 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon 860M is a 2025 card with FSR upscaling, while GeForce GTX 460 768MB is a 0 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

Radeon 860M is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2025 generation instead of 0, better upscaling support with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, and a 4nm process instead of Unknown node. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

Radeon 860M is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting lower estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 0.8% higher G3D Mark. G3D-per-dollar is basically tied between them. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, Radeon 860M is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, GeForce GTX 460 768MB still makes more sense on price alone, but the performance trade-off is much harder to justify by current standards.

Is GeForce GTX 460 768MB still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. GeForce GTX 460 768MB is still a strong gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. This mostly comes down to price. If you want to stay closer to an unclear MSRP, it remains a strong choice; if you are comfortable paying more, Radeon 860M earns that extra money with a clearly stronger gaming result and a more complete overall package.
