NVIDIA has published a new article that can confirm the GeForce RTX 4060 will be released on June 29, starting at $299, and with it comes a set of slides that demonstrate how the latest Ada Lovelace GPU aimed at 1080p gaming should compare to its predecessors. According to one slide titled “Better Performance,” GeForce RTX 4060 users can expect up to 1.7x greater performance than the GeForce RTX 3060, although that’s with DLSS 3 Frame Generation enabled. (With Frame Generation off, the GeForce RTX 4060 is 1.2x faster.) NVIDIA has also shared a Dying Light 2 video that shows the GeForce RTX 4060 achieving greater FPS than its predecessors while drawing less power.
From an NVIDIA GeForce post:
For gamers coming from a GeForce RTX 2060, performance is multiplied by an average of 2.3X across a suite of 18 games, and for GeForce GTX 1060 users, in addition to higher frame rates, they also get ray tracing and DLSS acceleration for the first time.
These substantial improvements enable you to enjoy the majority of games at high frames with max settings including ray tracing. And thanks to NVIDIA DLSS 3, you can experience some of the industry’s most advanced games running at over 100 FPS, at the highest possible detail levels.
While outpacing previous-generation GPUs by a considerable margin, the GeForce RTX 4060 reduces power consumption across the board, whether you’re gaming, watching videos, or hanging with friends on Discord.
At recent energy prices, the average gamer playing 10-20 hours a week could save a significant amount, while having a vastly superior gaming experience. In Germany, for example, a gamer playing 20 hours a week could save up to $132 in energy costs over the course of 4 years, when upgrading from an RTX 3060 to an RTX 4060.
