MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ventus 2X Black 8G OC… vs ASUS SFF-Ready Prime NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070… — Head-to-Head (2026)

Our verdict

ASUS SFF-Ready Prime NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070… is our pick.

The ASUS Prime RTX 5070 is the better card for anyone gaming at 1440p or running local LLMs in 2026, scoring 28,758 in PassMark G3D Mark against the RTX 4060's 19,512, about 47% higher, and carrying 12 GB of GDDR7 against 8 GB of GDDR6. The MSI RTX 4060 Ventus 2X only makes sense for 1080p esports rigs where its 115 W board power and small PSU requirement matter more than headroom.

Buy the MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ventus 2X Black 8G OC if you play 1080p esports and lighter AAA titles, are reusing a 300-400 W-class power supply, and don't need more than 8 GB of VRAM. Buy the ASUS Prime GeForce RTX 5070 if you want high-refresh 1440p, DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, 12 GB of VRAM for 12B-14B-class quantized LLMs, and a 2.5-slot SFF-Ready card that will still hold up in 2028.
