Quick Answers

So, is Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H better than RTXA5000-24Q?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 4,852 vs 4,803 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H is the overall package: you are getting FSR upscaling.

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

RTXA5000-24Q is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2021 generation instead of 2020 and the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling. 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 Ryzen 7 6800H can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $200 MSRP. Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H is about $3,521 cheaper on MSRP at $200 MSRP versus $3,721 MSRP, and you are getting 1.0% higher G3D Mark. RTXA5000-24Q is the newer 2021 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture and future-proofing than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.

When does RTXA5000-24Q make more sense than Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H?

Yes. RTXA5000-24Q 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 newer architecture, future-proofing, and staying closer to $3,721 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H. The trade-off is that Radeon Ryzen 7 6800H currently gives you 1.0% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 1779.5%.
