What does this comparison mean?
Moving from RTX 5060 Ti 16GB to RTX 4090 24GB increases the recorded result from 257 to 621 FPS and graphics memory from 16GB to 24GB. The uplift is 141.6% in this workload with 8GB more capacity; the benchmark cannot tell us how much of the difference comes from memory rather than the rest of the GPU.
RTX 4090 24GB has 24GB and RTX 5060 Ti 16GB has 16GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.
The two GPUs in context
RTX 4090 24GB
The RTX 4090 launched in October 2022 with Ada Lovelace architecture and 24GB of GDDR6X.
RTX 5060 Ti 16GB
This is the 16GB GDDR7 RTX 5060 Ti, introduced in April 2025. NVIDIA also offers a separate 8GB Ti configuration.

How the figures are compared
Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.
GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
