What does this comparison mean?
Both cards have 8GB of memory. This is chiefly a measured speed upgrade, so check whether that gain is enough before replacing an otherwise suitable RTX 4060.
Both variants have 8GB 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 4060 8GB
The RTX 4060 brought Ada features and strong efficiency into the 60-class, but its 8GB configuration framed much of the debate around the card. It is a capable 1080p option with a narrower historical claim than earlier mainstream leaders.
RTX 5060 8GB
The RTX 5060 offers Blackwell features in a mainstream 8GB card, but that memory size remains its central limit. It is too recent for a settled legacy rating, so this score chiefly reflects its launch role and measured reception.

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 above compares the higher model average with the lower one; the score scales every model against the fastest GPU in the current dataset, which scores 100. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS, and the percentage may change with the benchmark dataset.
