Choosing the right GPU is the most critical decision for a gaming rig. To cut through the marketing noise, we've compiled this interactive guide comparing the latest graphics cards on pure performance and value.

How to Read the Scores:
The Gaming Score is a relative performance metric. The top-performing GPU is set as the benchmark with a score of 100. All other GPUs are scored as a percentage of that leader's performance. For example, a card with a Gaming Score of 85 delivers 85% of the gaming performance of the top GPU. It's important to remember that a lower score doesn't mean a graphics card is "bad"—it simply quantifies its performance against the current best on the market.
We also list the VRAM (Video Memory in Gigabytes), which is crucial for playing at high resolutions and with high-quality textures. To find the best bang for your buck, sort by the Gaming P/P (Price-to-Performance) column. A higher P/P score means you get more gaming performance for every dollar you spend.
