Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB desktop graphics card makes Geekbench debut

Multiple leaks have confirmed that Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will launch in two flavours, one with 8 GB of VRAM and the other with 16 GB. The latter won't be much faster, as it uses a marginally different GPU with the same CUDA cores. A new set of Geekbench results now gives us insight into how the mid-ranger could perform.

The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB scores 146,170 and 144,910 points in Geekbench's CUDA benchmark, putting it between the GeForce RTX 3070 and GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. Its actual performance could be better once stable drivers are out and about, which shouldn't be long if recent leaks are accurate. Next-gen features such as DLSS 3 and Frame Generation could also give the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti a much-needed edge over its Ampere-based predecessors.

It packs 34 SMs (stream multiprocessors), which translates to 4,325 CUDA cores (128 cores/SM) and has a boost clock of 2.54 GHz. Unfortunately, the Geekbench listing doesn't specify which board partner's card is being used here. One can hope that some OEMs push the AD106 GPU's clocks higher because the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will require all the power it can get to run modern-day titles, more so with its paltry 8 GB of video memory.
