AMD Radeon RX 7400 VS Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile

The AMD Radeon RX 7400 and the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile differ significantly in their GPU clock speed and turbo frequency. The Radeon RX 7400 has a base clock speed of 1452 MHz, which is notably lower than the 2280 MHz clock speed of the RTX 5060. However, the Radeon RX 7400 can boost up to 2300 MHz, while the RTX 5060 reaches a higher turbo frequency of 2512 MHz.

In terms of pixel rate, the Radeon RX 7400 offers 147.2 GPixel/s, while the RTX 5060 provides a lower rate of 120.6 GPixel/s. On floating-point performance, the RTX 5060 leads with 19.29 TFLOPS, outperforming the Radeon RX 7400's 16.49 TFLOPS. The Radeon RX 7400 also achieves a higher texture rate of 257.6 GTexels/s compared to the RTX 5060's 301.4 GTexels/s.

The two cards differ in GPU memory speed as well. The Radeon RX 7400 operates at 2250 MHz, while the RTX 5060's memory runs at 1750 MHz. Regarding core architecture, the Radeon RX 7400 features 1792 shading units, while the RTX 5060 has 3840 shading units. The RX 7400 has 112 texture mapping units (TMUs) and 64 render output units (ROPs), while the RTX 5060 has slightly more TMUs at 120 but fewer ROPs, with 48.

The AMD Radeon RX 7400 and the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile both come with 8GB of VRAM, but they differ significantly in other memory specifications. The Radeon RX 7400 uses GDDR6 memory, while the RTX 5060 is equipped with the newer GDDR7 memory type.

In terms of effective memory speed, the Radeon RX 7400 has a speed of 10800 MHz, which is lower than the RTX 5060's much faster 28000 MHz. This results in a substantial difference in memory bandwidth. The Radeon RX 7400 has a maximum bandwidth of 173 GB/s, while the RTX 5060 offers a much higher bandwidth of 448 GB/s.

Both cards share the same memory bus width of 128-bit and support ECC memory, with no differences in these areas.

Both the AMD Radeon RX 7400 and the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile support DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL version 4.6, so they are equally capable in terms of these foundational graphics APIs. The Radeon RX 7400 supports OpenCL 2.2, while the RTX 5060 offers a newer OpenCL 3.0 version.

Both cards support multi-display technology, ray tracing, and 3D rendering, so they have similar capabilities in these areas. However, the Radeon RX 7400 does not support DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), whereas the RTX 5060 does. Additionally, while neither card includes XeSS (XMX) support, the Radeon RX 7400 is compatible with AMD SAM (Smart Access Memory), while the RTX 5060 works with Intel Resizable BAR.

Both cards lack LHR (Low Hash Rate) restrictions and RGB lighting, meaning they both offer standard gaming features without these specific additions.

Both the AMD Radeon RX 7400 and the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile come with 1 HDMI output, each supporting HDMI 2.1, though the RTX 5060 has an updated HDMI 2.1b version. Both cards also include 3 DisplayPort outputs, offering similar connectivity options in this regard. Neither card features USB-C ports, DVI outputs, or mini DisplayPort outputs.

Overall, the main difference between the two products in terms of ports is the HDMI version, with the RTX 5060 using HDMI 2.1b, while the Radeon RX 7400 uses the standard HDMI 2.1.

The AMD Radeon RX 7400 and the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile differ significantly in several general specifications. The Radeon RX 7400 is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, while the RTX 5060 uses the Blackwell architecture. In terms of power consumption, the Radeon RX 7400 has a much lower Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 55W compared to the 145W TDP of the RTX 5060, making the RX 7400 more power-efficient.

For connectivity, the Radeon RX 7400 uses PCIe 4.0, whereas the RTX 5060 supports the newer PCIe 5.0. The Radeon RX 7400 is built on a 6 nm semiconductor process, while the RTX 5060 uses a more advanced 5 nm process. The number of transistors in the RX 7400 is 13,300 million, while the RTX 5060 has 21,900 million transistors, indicating a larger and potentially more complex chip in the RTX 5060.

Neither card has air-water cooling, and the Radeon RX 7400 is 167 mm wide, while the RTX 5060 is slightly wider at 182 mm.
