At last the time has come: NVIDIA has just officially announced the next release of the graphics card family RTX 4060 Series, destined to become the new queens of the mid-range (with the permission of AMD, we will have to see how they react to the movement of those in green). From €335these graphics promise excellent performance at 1080p resolution and a high FPS rate, and they are the first Class 60 to have DLSS 3 technology.
At the moment there are two graphics cards announced in this family, both with all the advances in architecture Ada Lovelace including, as we have already mentioned, DLSS technology, as well as ray tracing third generation. Let’s see what the graphics card giant offers us.
The RTX 4060 Series arrives to dominate the mid-range
At the moment, NVIDIA has announced the release of the RTX 4060Ti and of the RTX 4060, two graphics that are located immediately in the upper part of the mid-range. Generally, these “Class 60” graphs are usually the top sellers, since they are the ones that offer the best value (performance for money invested); In the words of NVIDIA, the launch of these two graphics cards means giving the Class 60 twice the performance of current consoles for the first time, adding real-time ray tracing to achieve Premium image quality in the best games.
NVIDIA defines this series of graphics as the “definitive for gaming at 1080p”, and that is that the RTX 4060 Ti is, on average, 2.6 times more powerful than an RTX 2060 SUPER and 1.7 times more than an RTX 3060 Ti of previous generation (this supposes a 70% intergenerational improvementwhich are big words), although yes, only for games that support frame generation (the manufacturer says that if it does not, an RTX 4060 Ti would be 1.6 times more powerful than the RTX 2060 SUPER).
One of the great novelties of this Class 60 of Ada Lovelace architecture is the fact that they incorporate 32 MB of L2 cache; As this memory has a direct link to the GPU, access is much faster, and having a much larger amount reduces the need for the GPU to resort to VRAM, which although very fast, its speed is not comparable to that of the VRAM. cache.
An RTX for each type of user
With this latest release, NVIDIA says that it already offers us a graphics card option for each type of user, clearly taking into account both the budget and their aspirations to play at a certain resolution (obviously, a user who intends to play at a certain resolution is not the same thing). 4K resolution than one that has a simply Full HD monitor).

Additionally, NVIDIA will celebrate this launch with 100 streamers and will give away 460 graphics cards to community members during the event. Summer of RTX.
The 8 GB GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will be available starting Wednesday, May 24, 2023 starting at €449while its variant with 16 GB of VRAM will arrive from the month of July at a price of €559. For its part, the RTX 4060 will also arrive during the month of July from €335.
On the other hand, you will be interested to know that NVIDIA will put up for sale a Founders Edition version of the 8 GB RTX 4060 Ti through its official website and selected distributors, although there will of course be models customized by the usual brands, such as ASUS, Gigabyte or Zotac.
