NVIDIA continues to work on the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, an upper-middle-range graphics card that will hit the market between the first and second quarters of this year, and which had already been leaked on previous occasions. Thanks to these leaks we had important data on its possible specifications, and also on its consumption, which was set at 220 watts.
The fact is that, according to new information, NVIDIA would have adjusted the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti to significantly reduce its consumption, and I would have set it at 160 watts. This is a massive efficiency boost, as we’re talking about a 60-watt reduction, a move that would put the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti even below the GeForce RTX 3060 in power consumption, as the latter peaks at 170 watts.
The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti would consume 10 watts less than the GeForce RTX 3060, but it would be much more powerful than it. In broad strokes, the GeForce RTX 3060 performs slightly better than a GeForce RTX 2070, while the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti It should be more or less at the level of a GeForce RTX 3080although it may surpass it in ray tracing.
Also keep in mind that the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will support DLSS 3 and the generation of frames, and that thanks to that technology it will offer a level of performance superior to that of other more powerful models of previous generations. That mere 160-watt TGP would mean that such a graphics card would only need an additional 8-pin power connector, and would play nice with low-powered power supplies.
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Specifications
- AD106-350 graphics core in 5nm.
- 4,352 shaders.
- GPU at 2,190 MHz-2,430 MHz, normal and turbo mode.
- 128 texturing units.
- 128 fourth generation tensor cores.
- 64 raster units.
- 32 3rd generation RT cores.
- 128-bit bus.
- 8 GB of GDDR6 at 18 GHz (288 GB/s bandwidth).
- 21.15 TFLOPs of power in FP32.
- 160 watt TGP. You would need a 500 watt power supply and an additional 8 pin power connector.
The price of this graphics card is still unknown, but we can make an estimate based on the base price of the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. This has a minimum recommended price of 910 euros, which means that the GeForce RTX 4070 should be around 800 euros, and that the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti should be located between 600 and 650 euros.
