Nvidia has officially revealed the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 as the cheapest RTX 4000 series card so far. You can read about its sibling in our full Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti review. You can now also read our full AMD Radeon RX 7600 review, and this is the GPU that the GeForce RTX 4060 will need to beat.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 specs
The expected Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 spec list is:
GPU | AD107 |
CUDA cores / stream processors | 3,072 |
RT cores | 24 |
Tensor cores | 96 |
Base clock | 1830 MHz |
Boost clock | 2460 MHz |
Memory | 8GB GDDR6 |
Memory bus | 128-bit |
Memory bandwidth | 272 GB/s |
L2 cache | 24 MB |
TDP / TGP | 115 W |
Interface | 8x PCIe 4 |
Although Nvidia has officially unveiled the RTX 4060 series, several specs of the RTX 4060 have yet to be confirmed. These include the exact GPU model, how many CUDA cores it includes, and the clock speeds of the card. However, leaks have shown it will use a new AD107 GPU. What the company did confirm is it will use 8GB of GDDR6 memory with a 128-bit bus and house 24MB of L2 cache.
In comparison, the RTX 4060 Ti will have 32MB of L2 cache and come in 8GB and 16GB variants but still use the same 128-bit memory bus.

The RTX 4060 GPU is expected to be the AD107 which is pictured below, via leaker MegaSizeGPU.
As for RTX 4060 graphics card pictures, one MSI version has been pictured on show at Computex 2023 by HardwareUnboxed. It shows a very modestly-sized two-slot card with a twin-fan cooler and several MSI-specific features of the MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ventus 2X Black 8G OC card are highlighted on the blurb next to the card. However, no further specs of the card are revealed.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 performance
Leaked data shows RTX 4060 gaming performance will be around 18 percent faster than the RTX 3060.
Nvidia hasn’t revealed official RTX 4060 gaming performance data yet but has revealed that the RTX 4060 Ti will be 1.6x faster than the RTX 3060 Super in raw performance (i.e. without including DLSS 3 frame generation) and we’d expect the RTX 4060 to have a similar change.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 release date
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 release date is July 2023.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 price
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 price is $299, making it the cheapest RTX 4000 series card and cheaper than the RTX 3060 MSRP of $329.
The RTX 4060 along with the RTX 4060 Ti could be the cards to finally bring Nvidia’s latest technology to a genuinely mid-range price, but will you be getting one?
