NVIDIA's RTX 4060 Ti launch looks shaky as GPU falls below MSRP already

Darren Allan | May 25, 2023 8:32 AM CDT

NVIDIA's RTX 4060 Ti is now on sale, but the graphics card does not seem to be flying off the shelves - but rather trickling.

NVIDIA's RTX 4060 Ti launch looks shaky as GPU falls below MSRP already

That's what we can piece together thus far from looking at online retailers, and a couple of things VideoCardz spotted.

The first of which is that the RTX 4060 Ti has already had a price cut below its MSRP in Europe (as flagged up by 3D Center in the above tweet).

Fed up with NVIDIA and AMD pricing? Intel Arc A750 GPU is down to $199

Darren Allan | May 24, 2023 8:02 AM CDT

There's a lot of fuss right now about AMD and NVIDIA's new mid-range RDNA 3 and Lovelace graphics cards, with the RTX 4060 Ti just emerging today, and the RX 7600 set to be hot on its heels tomorrow - but what if you want a much more wallet-friendly GPU than either of those?

Fed up with NVIDIA and AMD pricing? Intel Arc A750 GPU is down to $199

Well, maybe you should take a look at the third horse in the graphics card race, Intel, because the Arc A750 may not be new, but it has dropped to an all-time-low price.

Tom's Hardware spotted that the Arc A750 is on offer at Newegg currently for $199.99, knocked down from $250 where it was already a solid value proposition (the launch price was $290, you may recall).

AMD RX 7600 GPU rumored to be $269 - a killer blow to NVIDIA's mid-range hopes?

Darren Allan | May 23, 2023 10:04 AM CDT

AMD's RX 7600 GPU is set to retail at $269 in the US, according to the latest chatter from the grapevine.

AMD RX 7600 GPU rumored to be $269 - a killer blow to NVIDIA's mid-range hopes?

VideoCardz shares the details on this one, informing us that AMD has been in touch with reviewers and influencers to inform them that the decision has been taken to drop the price of the RX 7600.

Originally, as we reported with previous rumors, the AMD graphics card - set to debut in a couple of days - was pegged at a $299 price point. (Some rumors suggested slightly higher than that, even).

AMD RX 7600 graphics card could be more power-hungry than RX 6600

Darren Allan | May 23, 2023 5:59 AM CDT

AMD's incoming Radeon RX 7600 GPU is set to up power consumption considerably compared to its predecessor, according to the latest leak about the graphics card.

AMD RX 7600 graphics card could be more power-hungry than RX 6600

Spanish tech site HD Tecnologia spilled the details on the specs of the RX 7600, and the GPU is said to demand 165W (TBP, or Total Board Power), compared to 132W for the RX 6600.

That's a jump of 33W, or to look at it another way, the RX 7600 uses 25% more power than the 6600, which also translates into a heftier requirement for the power supply in the PC. Instead of a 450W unit, you'll need a 550W PSU to drive the RX 7600 (assuming this leaked material is genuine - as ever, we must be doubtful until we get confirmation from AMD on the spec).

AMD RX 7600 vs RTX 4060 Ti benchmark leaks suggest NVIDIA's GPU has a clear lead

Darren Allan | May 22, 2023 11:46 AM CDT

We now have an idea of how the performance of AMD's Radeon RX 7600 squares up to NVIDIA's RTX 4060 Ti (8GB) graphics card, with leaked synthetic gaming benchmarks telling a story of how these two imminent GPUs will compete with each other.

AMD RX 7600 vs RTX 4060 Ti benchmark leaks suggest NVIDIA's GPU has a clear lead

VideoCardz published the 3DMark comparisons of the two graphics cards, with various tests conducted, and we're told that these are from reviewers (anonymously breaking NDAs). Apparently there are multiple results which VideoCardz has averaged to come out with some final pre-release figures.

The long and short of it is that in Time Spy (DX12, 1440p) and the Extreme (4K) version of that test, the RX 7600 is roughly 20% slower than the RTX 4060 Ti. With the Speed Way test (DX12 with ray tracing at 1440p) the gap is much more significant, as you might expect, and the AMD graphics card is almost 40% slower frame rate-wise.

GIGABYTE's RTX 4060 Ti pricing pitches its top-end graphics card at $470

Darren Allan | May 21, 2023 5:10 AM CDT

GIGABYTE is the first graphics card maker to reveal pricing for its custom RTX 4060 Ti models, and they look a bit costly - though, in many ways, that's to be expected for the higher-end cards.

GIGABYTE's RTX 4060 Ti pricing pitches its top-end graphics card at $470

VideoCardz spotted that GIGABYTE's models have been listed on Newegg and Best Buy in the US, ranging from $400 (the MSRP) for the base RTX 4060 Ti Eagle graphics card, all the way up to $470 for the AORUS Elite variant.

We haven't yet seen the RTX 4060 Ti offerings from other third-party card makers, but they'll likely not differ all that much (and indeed ASUS may well push a touch further with its top ROG Strix model).

NVIDIA confirms it won't make a Founders Edition of the RTX 4060 GPU

Darren Allan | May 19, 2023 10:59 AM CDT

NVIDIA has confirmed that out of its freshly revealed trio of RTX 4060 models, there will only be a Founders Edition of the RTX 4060 Ti 8GB.

In other words, Team Green won't make its own version of the graphics cards set to arrive later in July, the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB and the vanilla RTX 4060 - those models will only be available from third-party card manufacturers.

And as VideoCardz, which spotted this, points out, those card makers will be happy that they don't have to face any competition from NVIDIA's own designs. The Founders Edition models have been impressive across both Ampere and Lovelace generations, offering impressive cooling and overclocking potential, something its manufacturing partners now don't have to compete against with those GPUs.

NVIDIA's massive RTX 4060 GPU giveaway comes with hints of overcompensation

Darren Allan | May 19, 2023 8:35 AM CDT

NVIDIA's 'Summer of RTX' giveaway has returned, and this time, Team Green is making a whole load more freebie GPUs available compared to last year.

In total, there are 460 - yes, you read that right, 460 - graphics cards to be given away over the course of this summer, one way or another.

Compare that to last year's sweepstakes, in which NVIDIA sent out 15 freebie GPUs (RTX 3080 Ti models) plus a couple of very expensive gaming PCs and laptops.

NVIDIA confirms 8GB of VRAM isn't enough to run some games at 1080p max settings

Kosta Andreadis | May 18, 2023 8:57 AM CDT

As part of NVIDIA's presentation announcing the new GeForce RTX 4060 family, two out of three models could experience VRAM capacity issues for some titles when played using max settings.

NVIDIA confirms 8GB of VRAM isn't enough to run some games at 1080p max settings

With the GeForce RTX 4060 and GeForce RTX 4060 Ti launching with 8GB of VRAM (the RTX 4060 Ti is getting a 16GB model in July), internal 1080p NVIDIA benchmarks for A Plague Tale: Requiem and Resident Evil 4 Remake were highlighted as two games tested using the 'High' preset as opposed to everything set to max.

NVIDIA noted that this is why the more expensive GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB exists (USD 499 versus USD 399) for potential customers looking for a solution where tinkering with settings isn't required. Regarding the specs, the only difference between the RTX 4060 Ti 8GB and 16GB is the increase in VRAM capacity.

GeForce RTX 4060 is coming in July, $299 price, specs, and performance revealed

Kosta Andreadis | May 18, 2023 8:02 AM CDT

NVIDIA has confirmed that the GeForce RTX 3060 successor, the GeForce RTX 4060, is coming in July, though with pricing starting from USD 299. That's right, a price lower than the previous generation's equivalent GPU. Yep, the GeForce RTX 4060 launch price is lower than the RTX 3060's USD 329 and the RTX 2060's USD 349 - a first for the GeForce RTX 40 Series, and great news for mainstream GPU pricing going forward.

As far as performance goes, NVIDIA has showcased 1080p benchmark results for the RTX 4060 and what to expect - with the RTX 4060 delivering a 1.2X increase (20%) in rasterized performance over the RTX 3060 and a 1.6X increase (60%) over the RTX 2060 on average.

As part of the GeForce RTX 40 Series, the RTX 4060 will benefit from new RTX technologies like DLSS 3 and Frame Generation, which sees these performance increase numbers jump to 1.7X when compared to the RTX 3060 and 2.3X when compared to the RTX 2060. DLSS and DLSS 3 adoption has seen astronomical growth in recent years, so the addition of Frame Generation to a mainstream GPU is impressive to see.
