RTX 4060: Worth Buying Used?
No retailer we track is selling the RTX 4060 new today, and the last first-party price we verified was about $269. That does not make it a bad card - it scores 58/100 on our scale, which is a solid 1080p high-refresh / entry 1440p card - it makes the used market the only market. Here is what it goes for second-hand, and what to buy instead if you would rather have a warranty.

Score is our own gaming index (0-100), measured the same way for every card, so the gaps are comparable across generations. Price per point is that score divided by the cheapest live listing - a blunt value check, not a verdict: VRAM, power and features decide plenty that a single number cannot.

How much does a RTX 4060 cost?
Nobody we track is selling the RTX 4060 new at the moment; the last first-party price we verified was about $269. That makes the used market the real market for this card - the eBay panel above is filtered to used and refurbished listings, and second-hand prices for a card out of production tend to drift down slowly rather than jump.
What should I buy instead of a RTX 4060?
The cards worth cross-shopping are RX 9060 XT (about $469.99), Arc B580 (about $319), RTX 5060 (about $392.49). The RX 9060 XT is 7% faster, so it is the straight swap - the comparison above puts the VRAM, power draw and price-per-point side by side. Buying the RTX 4060 used is the other honest option.
Will the RTX 4060 bottleneck my CPU?
It depends on your processor and the resolution you play at. The RTX 4060 is a solid 1080p high-refresh / entry 1440p card (our gaming score: 58/100). Run it through our free bottleneck checker with your exact CPU to see whether they're balanced before you buy.
Are the more expensive RTX 4060 models worth it?
Usually only if you want a quieter/cooler card, RGB, or a factory overclock (typically 2-5% faster - not something you'll feel in games). For most people the extra $100-300 over the cheapest model buys aesthetics and cooling headroom, not meaningful frames.
We keep this page up after a card stops being stocked new, because the question does not go away when the listings do. Used prices come from live eBay listings; the score and comparisons are our own testing model. All listed cards use the same RTX 4060 GPU; differences are cooling, clocks, size, and looks.
