TECH NEWS – If Nvidia misses the pricing here, too (they did it with the GeForce RTX 4080!), there won’t be much demand for the cheaper RTX 4060 Ti.
According to Kopite7kimi, a trusted hardware insider, Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4060 Ti video card can only achieve performance as strong as the RTX 3070. The card will reportedly feature the AD106-350-A1 GPU, a scaled-back edition of the full AD106 graphics chip with 34 SMs or 4352 CUDA cores, 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit interface at 18 Gbps, and thus, a bandwidth of 288 GB/s. There will also be 32 MB of L2 cache, eight times more than the previous generation RTX 3060 Ti.
As with the RTX 4070, the RTX 4060 Ti will use the same PCIe Gen5 12VHPWR connector Nvidia plans to make the standard on its 4000 cards. The PCB will be compact on reference and non-reference cards, and its TGP will be 20% lower than its predecessor RTX 3060 Ti (160 W). However, its performance will only rival that of the RTX 3070! We know (and have written) that the RTX 4070 Ti will have the same performance as the RTX 3090 Ti, while the “Ti-free” version will be somewhere between the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090. Due to the small bus interface, the card will most likely struggle at higher resolutions, so it could be a good choice at 1080p or possibly 1440p at most.
Or even not there, as the price is a factor to consider. The MSRP for the GeForce RTX 3070 in the US was $500, while the RTX 3060 Ti was $400. The RTX 4070 Ti is on sale for $800, so the RTX 4070 could be around $600. So you could get a card with the same performance for two hundred dollars less without Nvidia’s DLSS 3 and the company’s other planned technologies.
Likely, this card won’t bring solid sales for the company either.
