Palit, and its sister brand Gainward, announced the GeForce RTX 4060 Infinity 2, and GeForce RTX 4060 Python 2 custom design graphics cards, respectively. Both cards feature an identical board design, differing only with their badging and outer boxes. Palit and Gainward seem to sell in the same markets, so you could pick either between the two. The card features identical dimensions to the Palit RTX 4060 DUAL V1 and the Gainward RTX 4060 Ghost V1 (which at least differ with their cooler shroud design).
Both cards get the same pair of 92 mm fans with idle fan-off. So why did Palit/Gainward come up with these? Apparently, cooler shroud of the Infinity 2 and Python 2 lack an RGB LED lighting element that you find on the Palit DUAL V1 and Gainward Ghost V1. The heatsink designs are changed, too. While the Palit DUAL V2 and Gainward Ghost V2 use an aluminium fin-stack heatsink, the newer cards come with an extruded aluminium monoblock heatsink that uses a copper heatpipe to spread heat. The shroud features an S-shaped design element going around the fan intakes, Palit sees the infinity symbol, while Gainward sees a python. Both cards stick to NVIDIA-reference clock speeds for the RTX 4060, of 2460 MHz boost, and 17 Gbps (GDDR6-effective) memory. Palit and Gainward may price the Infinity 2 and Phython at at the ever-shifting baseline price for the RTX 4060, which is now nearing $250 in some places.
