AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data delivers a clear split decision. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT wins the majority of benchmark comparisons, taking 8 out of 9 head-to-head tests. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile wins only the Geekbench OpenCL test, but by a massive margin of 81.7%. For overall average benchmark score, the AMD card sits at 26011, which places it at the 71st percentile of all GPUs. The NVIDIA mobile part averages 22729, placing it at the 67th percentile. The AMD part is therefore the stronger all-around performer in the database, with a 14.4% higher average score (26011 vs. 22729).

However, the two devices serve completely different physical use cases. The RX 6750 XT is a dual-slot desktop card with a 250 W TDP, requiring a 600 W power supply and two PCIe power connectors. The RTX 4060 Mobile is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with a 115 W TDP, no power connectors, and portable-device-dependent display outputs. Anyone building a desktop should prefer the AMD card based on the benchmark data. Anyone selecting a laptop component should look at the NVIDIA part, as it is the only one designed for mobile integration. The RX 6750 XT is also end-of-life, while the RTX 4060 Mobile remains active in production.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from entirely different architectural generations. AMD's RX 6750 XT uses the RDNA 2.0 architecture on the Navi 22 chip, part of the Navi II (RX 6000) generation. NVIDIA's RTX 4060 Mobile uses the Ada Lovelace architecture on the AD107 chip, part of the GeForce 40 Mobile generation. The manufacturing process differs too: AMD uses TSMC's 7 nm node, while NVIDIA uses TSMC's 5 nm node. This explains the transistor density gap: the NVIDIA chip packs 118.9 million transistors per mm², while the AMD chip manages 51.3 million per mm². The actual transistor counts are close, 18,900 million for NVIDIA versus 17,200 million for AMD, but the NVIDIA die is much smaller at 159 mm² versus 335 mm².

The compute layouts diverge significantly. AMD's RX 6750 XT has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. The RTX 4060 Mobile has 3072 shading units, 96 TMUs, and 48 ROPs. The AMD card has 40 ray tracing cores, while the NVIDIA part has 24 ray tracing cores plus 96 tensor cores. AMD's FP32 throughput is 13.31 TFLOPS, higher than NVIDIA's 11.61 TFLOPS. AMD also has FP16 at 26.62 TFLOPS (2:1 ratio), while NVIDIA runs FP16 at 11.61 TFLOPS (1:1 ratio). The pixel rate and texture rate follow the same pattern: AMD leads with 166.4 GPixel/s and 416.0 GTexel/s, versus NVIDIA's 90.72 GPixel/s and 181.4 GTexel/s.

Both cards support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The bus interface differs: AMD uses PCIe 4.0 x16, NVIDIA uses PCIe 4.0 x8. The NVIDIA part has no dedicated power connectors and is listed as an IGP, meaning it is soldered into a laptop board. The AMD card is a dual-slot expansion card requiring a 1x 6-pin plus 1x 8-pin power connection.

Specification Differences

The two parts differ in nearly every physical specification. Memory capacity is 12 GB for AMD versus 8 GB for NVIDIA. Memory type is GDDR6 for both, but the bus width is 192-bit for AMD and 128-bit for NVIDIA. Bandwidth is 432.0 GB/s versus 256.0 GB/s. Clock speeds show AMD running a 2150 MHz base and 2600 MHz boost, with a game clock of 2495 MHz. NVIDIA runs a 1545 MHz base and 1890 MHz boost, with no game clock listed. Memory clocks are 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective) for AMD and 2000 MHz (16 Gbps effective) for NVIDIA.

Power consumption is a major differentiator. AMD's TDP is 250 W, while NVIDIA's is 115 W. The AMD card requires a 600 W suggested power supply, while the NVIDIA part has no suggested PSU listing. Physical dimensions exist only for AMD: 267 mm length, 110 mm height, 40 mm width. The NVIDIA part has no listed dimensions because it is an IGP. Display outputs are 1x HDMI 2.1 plus 3x DisplayPort 1.4a for AMD, versus "Portable Device Dependent" for NVIDIA. The AMD card has a launch MSRP of 549 USD. The NVIDIA part has no launch MSRP recorded.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head data shows AMD dominating in raw graphics workloads. In Passmark DirectX 9, AMD scores 263 versus 216 for NVIDIA, a 21.8% lead. In Passmark DirectX 10, AMD leads 125 to 107, a 16.8% advantage. Passmark DirectX 11 shows AMD at 180 versus 157, a 14.6% win. Passmark DirectX 12 has AMD at 80 versus 73, a 9.6% lead. Passmark G3D shows AMD at 20700 versus 17469, an 18.5% win. Passmark GPU Compute is the second-largest gap: AMD scores 9550, NVIDIA scores 6816, a 40.1% difference. Passmark G2D gives AMD its biggest head-to-head win at 33.2%, with scores of 972 and 730.

The Vulkan test is closer. AMD scores 98089, NVIDIA scores 89569, a 9.5% win for AMD. The one NVIDIA victory is striking in its magnitude. Geekbench OpenCL shows NVIDIA at 89420 versus AMD at 16360, an 81.7% swing toward NVIDIA. This single result explains why the NVIDIA part's average score remains competitive despite losing eight other tests. The pattern suggests NVIDIA's OpenCL implementation is significantly stronger on this workload, while AMD's strength lies in DirectX, Vulkan, and 2D compute tasks.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT wins in DirectX 9, 10, 11, and 12 benchmarks, in Vulkan, in G2D, in G3D, and in GPU compute. That is a broad sweep across legacy and modern graphics APIs. The data indicates this card is the better choice for desktop gaming, particularly for titles that rely on DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, where the AMD leads range from 9.6% to 14.6%. The 40.1% lead in GPU compute also makes it the stronger option for compute-heavy workloads, though the OpenCL result complicates that picture.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile wins only OpenCL, but it wins by a huge 81.7%. This suggests that in OpenCL-based applications, such as certain physics simulations or compute offloads, the NVIDIA mobile part is dramatically faster despite lower raw FP32 throughput. The NVIDIA part also has the advantage of being an active product with a 115 W TDP, making it suitable for thin laptops where the 250 W AMD desktop card cannot physically fit. The AMD card is end-of-life, so new system builders may find the NVIDIA part easier to source for mobile platforms.

For desktop users, the verdict is unambiguous: the RX 6750 XT wins 8 of 9 tests, has 12 GB of memory versus 8 GB, has higher bandwidth, higher pixel rate, higher texture rate, and higher FP32 throughput. For laptop users, the RTX 4060 Mobile is the only viable option between the two, given its IGP form factor and lower power draw. The benchmark data shows the AMD card is the stronger performer overall, but the NVIDIA part holds a decisive edge in OpenCL and offers an active production status that the AMD card lacks.
