Uninspiring GeForce RTX 4060 Ti performance and sub-US$500 price targets leak

We reported a couple of days ago that the RTX 4060 Ti may have a significantly reduced TDP than earlier rumors suggested. The report was from serial leaker kopite7kimi who has since shared new information regarding the performance of the RTX 4060 Ti.

According to kopite, the RTX 4060 Ti will perform like an RTX 3070. This would make the RTX 4060 Ti only 10-15% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti. If true, this marginal performance gain could disappoint many fans who were hoping for another generational leap akin to the RTX 3060 Ti that saw a massive jump in graphics capability, as the GPU matched the RTX 2080 Super performance for US$300 less.

The RTX 4060 Ti’s less-than-ideal performance also has implications for the RTX 4060 non-Ti. Previous leaks stated that the RTX 4060 non-Ti could be 20% faster vs the RTX 3060 essentially matching the RTX 3070. Assuming kopite’s latest report is accurate, the RTX 4060 will undoubtedly be weaker than an RTX 3070 and hence would just be an incremental upgrade over its predecessor.

Finally, MyDrivers' sources suggest that Nvidia is making these "performance adjustments" to ensure the RTX 4060 Ti price will be less than US$500.

As always, take these RTX 4060 Ti rumors with a giant grain of salt as Nvidia has yet to officially reveal any details about the GPU.
