GeForce RTX 4060: NVIDIA confirms new launch date for US$299 RTX 3060 successor
NVIDIA has now confirmed a new release date for the GeForce RTX 4060, confirming earlier rumours. Originally, the company committed itself to delivering the GeForce RTX 4060 sometime in July, with no specific date offered. The same applied to the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16 GB). In comparison, NVIDIA began selling the RTX 4060 Ti (8 GB) on May 24, less than a week after the trio's announcement.
While the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (16 GB) remains on track for a July introduction, NVIDIA has brought the GeForce RTX 4060 forward to this month. As far as we can tell, NVIDIA has not issued any statements outlining a new launch date for its entry-level RTX 4060 series card. Nonetheless, its German, UK and US websites all report that the GeForce RTX 4060 is now 'coming June 29'.
The GeForce RTX 4060 will start at US$299, with board partners seemingly allowed to set higher prices where they feel it necessary. All SKUs will rely on the AD106-400 GPU though, which marries 3,072 CUDA cores with 96 TMUs and 64 ROPs. Additionally, the GPU has a 1.8 GHz base clock, a 2.4 GHz boost clock and 15.11 TFLOPS (FP32) theoretical maximum computing power. The GeForce RTX 4060 features 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM too, which operates at 17 Gbps on a 128-bit bus width to deliver 272 GB/s.
