According to MyDrivers, Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will be one of those sub-$500 midrange cards. Meanwhile, it will have performance comparable to Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3070, according to well-known hardware leaker @kopite7kimi.
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is the most affordable GeForce RTX 40-series graphics card released to date, with a manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) of $799 and performance comparable to the previous generation RTX 3090. (non-Ti). Nvidia has yet to reveal prices for its GeForce RTX 4070 (non-Ti) and GeForce RTX 4060 Ti parts, but because these parts will be priced below the RTX 4070 Ti, the model RTX 4060 Ti will naturally be less expensive. Nvidia will make final decisions on the MSRPs of its products closer to launch, but general feedback on the pricing of the 4070 Ti and 4080 has been harsh.
In terms of performance, Kopite7kimi believes the 4060 Ti will only match the 3070, which is quite poor. With the vanilla 4070 matching the 3090, the vanilla 4070 should match the 3080, if not the 3080 12GB / 3080 Ti. That would put the 4060 Ti on par with the 3070 Ti or even the 3080 10GB.
The Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti is currently one of the best graphics cards in its price range, but it is due for replacement.
The 4060 Ti will have a newer microarchitecture, which should improve performance. However, Nvidia has raised prices on every GPU class in the 40-series so far, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see the future 4060 Ti priced $100 higher than the previous generation card.
The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is an unusual product in terms of specifications. According to unofficial sources, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will use the AD106 GPU with 4352 CUDA cores and 8GB of 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory via a 128-bit interface. The new part would have significantly fewer stream processors than the alleged GeForce RTX 4070 with 5888 CUDA cores, as well as 33% less memory, implying a significant performance gap between the two. The RTX 4060 Ti’s only saving grace is that it is expected to consume 160W, which is extremely low by today’s standards.
Furthermore, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is expected to have 43% less memory bandwidth than the GeForce RTX 4070 and 36% less DRAM bandwidth than its direct predecessor, the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti with GDDR6 memory. The larger L2 cache should help in comparison to the 30-series, but there is still a significant gap between the 4060 Ti and the 4070. It also has only 8GB of memory, which is the same as the 3060 Ti, 3070, and 3070 Ti (but less than the 3060).
