RTX 4060/Ti FAQ. (These are Nvidia-provided replies and performance claims, not independent reviews, for those, you need to wait for the embargos to lift, closer to release).Link to full FAQ: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/geforce-graphics-cards/5/519266/geforce-rtx-4060-family-faq/

How does the RTX 4060 Ti perform compared to previous generations?"The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is on average 70% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti with Frame Generation, and 15% without Frame Generation, across a suite of modern graphically demanding games at 1080p. Compared to the RTX 2060 SUPER, it’s 160% faster with Frame Generation, and 60% faster without Frame Generation."

**How much power does the RTX 4060 Ti use?**RTX 4060 Ti is ultra-efficient - it has average gaming power consumption of 140 Watts, while the RTX 3060 Ti averages at 197 Watts when tested across 22 games at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. The recommended system power for an RTX 4060 Ti is 550W, although this may vary depending on graphics card model clocks and other components in your system.

Why does the RTX 4060 Ti have an option (16GB) with more graphics memory than the RTX 4070 & 4070 Ti (12GB)?"This can happen occasionally based on the underlying GPU architecture; for example the RTX 3060 had more memory than the RTX 3070. With a 128-bit memory interface, it is not possible to outfit the RTX 4060 Ti & 4060 with 12GB of graphics memory. The memory configurations compatible with a 128-bit memory interface are 8GB and 16GB. However, the GPU itself is what mostly defines their performance, and that’s why GPUs are named the way they are."

Is 8GB VRAM enough for modern gaming titles at 1080p?"Yes. GeForce RTX 4060 Ti and 4060 are able to run a wide range of modern games at over 100 fps at 1080p in our testing. In most games, both versions of the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (8GB and 16GB) will deliver the same level of performance. There are a handful of games which play best at the “High” settings preset on the 4060 Ti (8GB) and “Ultra” settings on the 4060 Ti (16GB)."

Availability:

  • May 24th, 2023 for the 4060ti 8GB.
  • July 2023 for the 4060 and the 4060Ti 16GB.
