NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Rumored To Feature AD107 GPU: 3072 Cores, 8 GB Memory & 115W

New specifications of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card have been reported by well-known leaker, Kopite7kimi.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Specs Downgraded? Gets AD107 GPU With 3072 Cores, 8 GB Memory & 115W TDP

There are two specifications for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 floating around the rumor mill and it looks like the previous one might just be the "Ti" model with the Non-Ti variant getting a big down-grade in terms of its GPU. While the 60-series cards within NVIDIA's lineup have mostly either been based on the 106 or 104 GPU SKU, this would be the first time we see a desktop 60-class card with the 107 GPU SKU.

Kopite7kimi reports that NVIDIA is planning to use the AD107-400-A1 GPU, the fully enabled AD107 Ada die, for its GeForce RTX 4060 GPU. Do note that the same configuration is used by the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU. The chip will feature 3072 CUDA cores and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory running at 18 Gbps memory speeds across a 128-bit bus interface. That gives the card 288 GB/s bandwidth and all of that will fall within a 115W reference TDP. The GPU is also said to feature 24 MB of cache (L2).

What this means is that consumers are most definitely going to be paying around $300-$400 US for an even lower-tier GPU SKU on the GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card. In terms of the overall gaming performance, we can see a gain of around 30-50% over the existing RTX 3060 cards as the RTX 4060 Laptop GPU is already up to 25% faster than the RTX 3060 12 GB graphics card and the large cache does help it in higher resolutions but it will mostly fall in the 1080p gaming segment.

A bit disappointing is definitely the memory spec which is 4 GB lower than the previous-gen 60-class GPU. The RTX 3060 came with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 192-bit bus while the RTX 4060 has been reduced to 8 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 128-bit bus. The aforementioned L2 cache size does help here but there are certain titles that now warrant the higher memory size & Hogwarts Legacy is one such (and recent) example.

All this means is that the RTX 4050 would end up being an even more cut-down AD107 SKU. The graphics card is expected to launch around the mid of 2023 after the RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 Ti.
