About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

GeForce GTX 460 768MB

Why buy it

  • 100+% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs Unknown).
  • Less risky long-term buy than Radeon Pro Vega 16: it remains the more sensible modern option while Radeon Pro Vega 16 is already obsolete for modern gaming.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Radeon Pro Vega 16 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Poor future-proofing: older-era hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.

Radeon Pro Vega 16

2018

Why buy it

  • 10.7% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • More future proof: GCN 5.0 (2017−2020) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with Unknown vs 2 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Very weak future-proofing: 2018-era hardware with Unknown of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon Pro Vega 16 better than GeForce GTX 460 768MB?
Yes. Radeon Pro Vega 16 is clearly the better overall GPU here. Radeon Pro Vega 16 averages 10.7% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 4,809 vs 4,800 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon Pro Vega 16 is a 2018 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?
GeForce GTX 460 768MB is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting more VRAM at 2 GB instead of Unknown and the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling. That extra memory headroom makes it the safer pick for newer games, heavier textures, and higher settings over time.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
Radeon Pro Vega 16 is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 10.7% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 0.2% higher G3D Mark. G3D-per-dollar is basically tied between them. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, Radeon Pro Vega 16 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.
When does GeForce GTX 460 768MB make more sense than Radeon Pro Vega 16?
Yes. GeForce GTX 460 768MB is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is future-proofing and staying closer to an unclear MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of Radeon Pro Vega 16. The trade-off is that Radeon Pro Vega 16 currently gives you 0.2% higher G3D Mark and 10.7% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. G3D-per-dollar is basically tied between them.
