NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Possibly Maxes Out AD107, NVIDIA's Smallest Ada Silicon
NVIDIA's mid-range, high-volume graphics card based on the GeForce "Ada" graphics architecture, the GeForce RTX 4060, a 60-class product, could feature specs that make it possible for NVIDIA to carve it out either with a maxed out 5 nm AD107 silicon, or a heavily cut-down AD106. Kopite7kimi, a reliable source with NVIDIA leaks, says that the RTX 4060 has specs which align with the full-spec AD107, with 3,072 CUDA cores across 24 streaming multiprocessors (SM), 96 Tensor cores, 96 TMUs, an unknown ROP count, and 8 GB of 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory. The memory bus width is hard to predict with this generation. The GPU's on-die L2 cache is 24 MB in size. The card has a typical graphics power (TGP) of 115 W, making it possible to build cards with just one 6-pin PCIe power connector.

Disgusting nGreedia.
This feels like a X050 tier which will probably cost $400 or some bullshit like that.
Wishful thinking would make me hope this is a $200 card. Hope.
RTX 4090 - 16384
RTX 4060 - 3072 ~ 19% of RTX 4090
But bear in mind that a 4070Ti has only ~47% of the Cuda cores that a 4090 has, but a 4090 is ~60% faster (not ~106% faster as the core deficit alone might suggest), and that's at 4k where the 4070Ti loses steam, at lower resolutions it performs even better relative to that metric. Core count and raw on die specs don't tell you the entire picture.
Like all new cards this gen, I fear the real issue will just be the price.
14.5 TFLOPs? It would likely end up between RTX 3060 and 3060 Ti. But with less memory than the 3060.
And the TDP is too low, it's probably a mobile variant.
they are charging high price because they dont want to put prices back down, instead they cut the production down and keeping prices high..
if you gonna buy gpu better to skip a gen or two unless yours suddenly dies
I am holding my RX6800 and wait for something actually gives me a better price/performance ratio.
the 4080 and 4070ti is overpriced, the 3080 10gb $699 and the 4080 is $1199 - $500 price bump and not to mention the aib cards are $100-$300 more
GTX 1080 Ti MSRP: $700
RTX 2080 Ti MSRP: $1000
RTX 3080 Ti MSRP: $1200
RTX 3090 MSRP: $1500
RTX 3090 Ti MSRP: $2000
RTX 4070 Ti MSRP: $800
RTX 4080 MSRP: $1200
RTX 4090 MSRP: $1600
RTX 4060 : $400 !
Am I good ? :D
But yes, core count isn't everything, the 4070 Ti has 66.6% of the L2 cache of a 4090. This rumored 4060 has half the cache of the 4070 Ti, which is an extremely significant drop. Couple that with a smaller bus and slower memory and you have a card that's guaranteed to be limited. I don't know what's worse, that a 1440p graphics card is $800 in 2023 or that you have to spend $1,200 to get one for 4K.
but price comes into play because at the end of the day you decide whether its worth getting the 4070ti what it will cost you..
if you think its worth it then its cool but i think majority of the people doesnt like the price for the performance of the card you are getting...
not saying you are wrong just not many will be able to afford the card .. no matter how you look at it $800 is a lot for mid (highish) gpu
