NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8G
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 is a mid-range desktop GPU manufactured using the 5 nm process at TSMC. The AD107 chip is used here. It combines 3,072 shader units and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory. The memory interface is 128-bit, resulting in a memory bandwidth of 272 GB/s in conjunction with the VRAM clock speed.
Features
The features that were introduced with the high-end models of the Ada Lovelace generation, such as DLSS 3.0 with frame generation, are also present in the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060. This sets the new mid-range card apart from the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 and provides a significant advantage in games that offer these features.
Performance
Without DLSS, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 performs slightly behind the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. Compared to AMD, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 often competes with an AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT. The GeForce RTX 4060 caters to the 1080p gaming range in terms of performance. At times, the performance is sufficient for 1440p gaming as well, although older games are more suitable for this resolution. Additionally, some compromises in terms of graphical fidelity might be necessary for the latest games. The performance is suitable for playable frame rates at high detail settings.
Power Consumption
The power consumption of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 is specified by the manufacturer at 115 Watts (TDP). This is significantly lower than the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060, which has a TDP of 170 watts. In comparison to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti (200 W TDP), the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 performs well and delivers similar performance with significantly lower power consumption. Power is supplied through a PCIe slot and an additional 6+2-pin connector.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8G
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is a mid-range desktop GPU which is manufactured in a 5 nm process at TSMC. The manufacturer thus rounds off its current Ada-Lovelace lineup further in the direction of the mid-range. The AD106 is used as the chip. It combines 4,352 CUDA cores with 8 GB GDDR6. An Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti with 16 GB VRAM is supposed to follow later. The memory interface is 128 bits, which results in a memory bandwidth of only 288 GB/s.
Features
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is not deprived of the features that have already arrived with the high-end models of the Ada-Lovelace generation, such as DLSS 3.0 with frame generation. Thus, the new mid-range clearly stands out from the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti and can gain a significant advantage in games that offer these features.
Performance
Without DLSS, the performance of an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is about 10% better than that of an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. Compared to AMD, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti positions itself exactly between an AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT and an AMD Radeon RX 6800, although AMD has a small advantage here with the larger VRAM when it goes beyond 1080p. However, this is not the intended goal of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, as this is rather a graphics card for the 1,080p gaming range.
Power consumption
The power consumption of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is specified by the manufacturer with 160 Watts (TDP). That is considerably less than the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, which has a TDP of 200 watts. This once again shows how efficient Nvidia's current GPU architecture is. The power supply recommendation from Nvidia is 450 watts. Meanwhile, the manufacturer (Founders Edition) still relies on the 12VHPWR adapter for the power connection, although third-party manufacturers also equip their graphics cards with the well-known 6+2-pin connector.
