NVIDIA Prepares GeForce RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4060 Launches in May 2023
It looks like Spring-Summer will see NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 40-series get a rapid ramp up to high-volume market segments. In April, the company is planning to release the GeForce RTX 4070, which should hold the performance-segment end of things, albeit at an eye-watering $750 rumored price. May 2023 could see NVIDIA come out with two product launches before the 2023 Computex; the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, and the RTX 4060.
Both the RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4060 are expected to be based on the "AD106" silicon, which is expected to have around 36 streaming multiprocessors (4,608 CUDA cores, 144 Tensor cores, 36 RT cores, 144 TMUs, 48 ROPs); and a 128-bit wide memory interface. NVIDIA is expected to use 18 Gbps-rated conventional GDDR6 memory chips with these SKUs, which should lower costs (for the company) in comparison to the more exotic 19 Gbps GDDR6X.
The faster GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is expected to feature 32 out of 36 SM, which should mean 4,352 CUDA cores, 128 Tensor cores, 32 RT cores, 128 TMUs, and 48 ROPs. The more affordable RTX 4060 (non-Ti), is expected to be cut down further, or perhaps even be a maxed out version of the "AD107" silicon, featuring 3,072 CUDA cores. Both SKUs are expected to feature 8 GB as the standard memory amount, using 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory, which across the 128-bit interface should provide 288 GB/s of memory bandwidth. With the typical graphics power (TGP) of the RTX 4060-series expected to be well under the 200 W-mark, graphics cards could more extensively feature common 8-pin PCIe power connectors, instead of the 16-pin 12VHPWR.

Good luck, might get one in about 10 years for £35, unless these come at under $400 MSRP or better yet, for under 400 quid I could get an Intel ARC A770 now and put it in my AMD rig , as my Intel rig has an AMD GPU for a double "blasphemy".
le: ortho.
In the end: If it look's like a duck, walks like a duck, or quacks like a duck, it's a duck. nVidia, the way you are meant to be played.
i really hope people buy these in volumeLOL ain't happeningget real, or at least don't be delusional; for the 6800 xt to be 4070 ti-level it'd need to be faster than a 6950 xt. it just isn't.
especially aftermarket 6800 xt vs stock 6950 xt.
There's a lot of cards coming that Nvidia will try to sell as expensive as possible - the fact that Ti models have launched with the normal ones means they'll be very close together.
And reviewers will help them - just as they tried to explain to us that a $1200 RTX 4080 is at the right price, since it is much cheaper than RTX 3080 at the height of cryptoinsanity, and that RTX 4070 Ti is also well priced at $850, since it's faster than 3090 Ti - a card with a launch MSRP of $2000!
The crypto high still hadn't let go at Nvidia, I guess. And now they have a new explanation - AI. AI will need even more cards than cryptomining, so bad luck, gamers!
Nobody is counting FE price since you couldn't hardly get one at that price. 3070s for $700 were pretty commonplace on release.
Nothing is sure or sane when it comes to nvidia.
6800 - $465
6800XT - $570
6950XT - $670
Raster performance and even RT performance steps down regularly from the 7900 XTX to 7900XT to 6950XT to 6800 XT and so on. VRAM allocation, too. What's the motivation for releasing the 7900X or the 7900? Oops I mean the 7800XTX and 7800 XT.
