PC Gamers are Outraged by the Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti GPU Leak

The newest Nvidia GPU to be the focus of an information dump concerning its alleged specifications is Nvidia's RTX 4060 Ti, as reports about the RTX 4000 series keep pouring in. According to VideoCardz, earlier leaks have indicated that the AD106 GPU would function with a 128-bit memory bus, theoretically giving the RTX 4060 Ti a bandwidth of 288GB/s. The RTX 4060 Ti reference board is "concise." Disappointment is the most common internet response to the alleged spec seen here.

Analysis: This Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti GPU still has a long way to go.

Although the CUDA Core count has generated some complaints, we can't evaluate a card's strength only on that specification. According to this information, it has fewer cores than the RTX 3060 Ti (4,864), but there are also generational architectural advancements and all the other GPU specifications to consider.

The utilisation of 8GB of VRAM and the meagre-looking theoretical memory bandwidth is what many people find to be a sticking point; however, the much-increased L2 cache, 32MB, may be a functional improvement over the 3060 Ti's 4MB. Furthermore, we should season this with extra salt because the bandwidth computation is based on an earlier requirement that was only a rumour.

Regardless, gamers weren't thrilled with the 3060 Ti utilising 8GB, let alone a 4060 Ti with greater power. Whatever the case, there are general expectations for a graphics card to match the RTX 3070 Ti, and a lot will rely on the price after that. Considering Nvidia's recent performance, this doesn't inspire confidence in us.

Conclusion

Above all, these specifications might alter depending on how the RTX 4070 Ti and 4070 are received and how things turn out with mid-range RDNA 3 GPUs. It will likely be a while until the RTX 4060 Ti is released; according to rumours, it won't be until mid-2023; as is well known, Nvidia still has a considerable amount of RTX 3000 stock to sell, much of it likely in the mid.

Even though these are the specifications listed on the board as of right now, considering the extended period for the RTX 4060 Ti and 4060's expected arrival, we'd be astonished if they stayed the same over time based on the considerations mentioned above and the evolved GPU landscape.
