Gigabyte Confirms Upcoming RTX 4070 and 4060 Graphics Cards
Gigabyte has pretty much confirmed the upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 graphics cards, by adding support for its two SKUs in the Gigabyte Control Center software. The latest 23.03.02.01 version of the software adds support for the Gigabyte RTX 4070 AERO OC 12 GB and the Gigabyte RTX 4060 GAMING OC 8 GB graphics cards.
Gigabyte's product codes reveal a lot of information, including the first confirmation that the upcoming RTX 4060 will indeed be coming with 8 GB of memory, just as previous rumors stated. Obviously, the GeForce RTX 4070 comes with 12 GB of memory. The GeForce RTX 4070 is rumored to be announced on April 12th, with the retail availability expected on April 13th. The GeForce RTX 4060, or the rumored GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, still do not have a launch date, but earlier rumors pointed to May.

3060 12go (my old was it)

So, the same thing will be done for 4060 !?!
Imagine if they had the 7800/7700 ready to go already.
Or do you fancy 4K15?
AMD should consentrate on servers and laptops and leave consumers to pay with their wallets their loyalty to Nvidia. AMD shouldn't waste time, resources and money to build products that consumers would find excuses to not buy anyway.
And 7900 XT is $800.
Also not acceptable they raise the TDP of the GPUs. We enjod the games back to ages, while a PC power consumption was around 60-80-100W. Now a mid-range gaming PC EZ-PZ reaches 200-300W or a higher-evel gaming PC 400W-600W. I would say this is fckN nonsense, absurd, idiotism. Just imagine that power level how huge: 300W-600W electric scooter, a biking human power only ~150W-250W.
Notice how the 2080 Ti is doing just fine and would be perfectly playable with DLSS enabled (heck, even a 6700 XT or A770 should be playable with FSR/XeSS). Notice, however, that there's absolutely no saving a 3070, or any other 8GB card. The 4060 should be in the same sort of performance range as those cards, so would be perfectly capable of a great RT experience... were it not for the gimped VRAM. Do you think games are going to use less VRAM in the future? We're just getting started on PS5/XSX exclusives without the PS4/Bone holding them back.
I must admit though, it's always a little impressive to me just what Nvidia fanboys will defend.
