Retail Leak of Custom GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Models Reconfirms Standard 8 GB VRAM Config
NVIDIA is expected to roll out its RTX 4060 Ti GPU series later this month but the American hardware giant has not issued any official material about these cards - leaks have so far become the only sources of specification and configuration information. A launch price of $450 is mooted, and the low-to-midrange RTX 4060 Ti is likely to sport NVIDIA's AD106 GPU (based on its Ada Lovelace graphics architecture). Previous leaks have indicated that this variant will be offered in an 8 GB VRAM configuration with a 128-bit memory interface, although TPU hardware archivist (T4C Fantasy) reckons that NVIDIA's board partners can opt for larger pools of video memory.
A retailer in Russia has released (possibly in error) catalog listings for four upcoming Palit branded GeForce RTX 4060 Ti graphics card models. The board partner seems to be offering two sets of its Dual and StormX designs - in normal and overclocked variations - but all of these models share the bog standard VRAM allocation of 8 GB, paired with the usual 128-bit memory interface. Palit's Dual cooler design is currently available on its RTX 4070-based models, but the StormX cooling solution design has not been applied to any 40 series cards so far - the upcoming RTX 4060 Ti cards will debut a (likely) smaller StormX shroud, heatsink and fan combination.

4060Ti is DOA. At anything over $350 it's a scam, and there's no way Nvidia are selling it that cheap.
Also the obligatory “recommended/editors choice awards” from TPU and the like.
You can’t fix stupid/ill informed consumers though.
on the other hand it will force game devs to optimise games for 8GB, and that's great.
I know some of my modded games have hit 9gb+ vram.
glad I got enough vram.
Gamers aren't buying Nvidia's cards right now, that's why they're sat on shelves unsold as their prices trickle downwards. What they ARE buying is the the last-gen 3060 with 12GB and AMD's 6000-series cards with 12GB+
Not even the clueless shmucks who buy stuff without reading reviews are buying the 4070; It's Nvidia's biggest launch failure since the FX-series 20 years ago. The 4070Ti and 4080 are at least selling in small volumes, but they're not doing well - They're selling very poorly indeed and the number of discounts and unsold stock everywhere is shocking given that the market volume for x70Ti and x80 class nvidia GPUs has always been miniscule compared to the mainstream parts.
Personally I think a used 6700XT is a better investment at this point in time than a new RX6700, especially since it's looking like the next wave of RDNA3 cards will be lower-performing and held back by just 8GB of VRAM.
if a company produces a product but no one, not even the intended target market will buy it at its MSRP,…then you have the very definition of an impasse.
Now, if they lower the price enough that it starts to sell or people just start buying it without a price reduction,….then you’re past the classic impasse.
