Quick Answers

So, is Radeon RX 7600 better than Radeon Pro 5600M?

Yes. Radeon RX 7600 is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 16,581 vs 9,324 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon RX 7600 is a 2023 card with FSR 3 + AFMF, while Radeon Pro 5600M is a 2020 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. 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 RX 7600 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2020, 77.8% more raw performance headroom, better frame-generation support with FSR Frame Generation + AFMF (2023) instead of FSR upscaling, and a 6nm process instead of 7nm. 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 RX 7600 is the smarter buy today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. Radeon RX 7600 is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $269 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 77.8% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 100+%. That is why the better overall card still comes out as the smarter buy today, not just the faster one.

Is Radeon Pro 5600M still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. Radeon Pro 5600M 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 an unclear MSRP, even if Radeon RX 7600 is still the cleaner recommendation on overall value today.
