Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4060 better than GeForce MX570 A?
Yes. GeForce RTX 4060 is clearly the better overall GPU here. GeForce RTX 4060 averages 141.7% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 19,548 vs 6,208 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 4060 is a 2023 card with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while GeForce MX570 A is a 2022 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 RTX 4060 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2022, 214.9% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 8 GB instead of 4 GB, and better upscaling support with DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack and better frame-generation support with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
GeForce RTX 4060 is the smarter buy today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. GeForce RTX 4060 is about $1 cheaper on MSRP at $299 MSRP versus $300 MSRP, and you are getting 141.7% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 214.9% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 215.9%. That is why the better overall card still comes out as the smarter buy today, not just the faster one.
Is GeForce MX570 A still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
Yes. GeForce MX570 A is still a strong modern gaming GPU: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It remains a good buy when you can get it meaningfully cheaper than the alternative around $300 MSRP, even if GeForce RTX 4060 is still the cleaner recommendation on overall value today.
