Nvidia and AMD are about to have an all-out competition this quarter. Nvidia is offering their latest GeForce RTX 4060Ti, and AMD is offering their Radeon RX 7600 as the latest GPU.
Both the GPUs come with 8GB of VRAM and are set to be the latest mainstream solutions for gamers who want performance at a reasonable price point.
The review pieces of the Radeon RX 7600 and the RTX 4060 Ti have been benchmarked on 3DMark, Time Spy, Time Spy Extreme and Speedway, and the FireStrike tests. The RTX 4060Ti proved to be faster, per the benchmarks in the DX12 and DX12/RT tests. The performance gap isn’t much, considering that the RX 7600 notches 92% to 97% of the performance of the RTX 4060 Ti.
Getting down to the specifics, the GeForce RTX 4060Ti based on the Ada Lovelace architecture built atop the AD104 GPU outperformed the Navi 33-based RX 7600 by 25% in Time Spy, 24% in Time Spy Extreme, and 63% in Speedway.
Per the same benchmarks, the RTX 7600 sits between the RTX 3060 and the RTX 3060 Ti. RTX 3060 lost by 22% and 24% on Time Spy and Time Spy Extreme respectively but won by 11% against the RX 7600.
The Firestrike results for both cards were quite similar. The RTX 4060 Ti was faster than the RX 7600 by only 9% on FireStrike and Fire Strike Extreme.
The RX 7600 was better than the RTX 3060 Ti in Fire Strike by 5% and 1% in Fire Strike Extreme. However, RTX 3060 Ti emerged victorious by 2% in the Fire Strike Ultra.
With all these numbers, it must be kept in mind that the benchmarks aren’t official, and they have been averaged from several sources. On top of that, the cards weren’t coupled with updated drivers.
While the “generic” benchmarks like 3DMark don’t always tell the whole story, they do give a better idea of what to expect from the cards once they come to fruition and are released.
The first opinion we can form from these benchmarks is that the RTX 4060 Ti will leave the RX 7600 in the dust. A more direct competitor would be the RTX 4060, which won’t launch until July.

III. Was season 2 any good?
Log Horizon has a plot like any other video game based anime, with a flexible environment and avatars that reflect its player.
Season 2 had several arcs, but with every episode covering multiple scenarios simultaneously, fans still thought the story paced at a snail’s speed.
The best part about season two was that the players actually put some effort into getting back to the real world. (Score-6.5)
