In all generations of graphics cards (and this goes for NVIDIA and AMD), the mid-range models they have always been the best sellers: in the case of NVIDIA, the XX60 and in the case of AMD, the X6XX. For this reason, there are high expectations for the next RTX4060 of those in green, a graph that should in theory arrive but of which we still know practically nothing.
Due to the shortage of raw materials that hit the industry a few years ago, coupled with the fact that the “BOOM” cryptocurrency caused a shortage in the graphics card market, causing its price to skyrocket as well, have caused a rather atypical calendar release. So, since the launch of the top model, the RTX 4090, last October, NVIDIA is slowly and gradually launching the immediately lower models: RTX 4080, RTX 4070 Ti and recently the RTX 4070.
Theoretically, the turn should come to RTX4060Ti as the next model to appear on the market, and the proof is that the rumors and leaks about it have happened, such as the fact that there will be two variants: one with 8 GB of VRAM and another with 16 Go and with a slightly higher TDP. But what about the RTX 4060?
The launch of the RTX 4060 should be imminent
As we mentioned before, traditionally, the RTX 4060 model of this generation should be the one that offers the best price / performance ratio, and therefore it should immediately become the best-selling graphics card of the brand, as long as it arrives in the market with enough stock, of course.
As is obvious, this graphics card would be below the performance of the graphics cards of its generation that are currently on the market (also below the RTX 4060 Ti which is or should be in the works), but so will its price, and that’s a sure thing. Now, depending on “how much” below and how AMD responds to its launch with the alleged Radeon RX 7600/7600 XT, it will be more or less successful.
We’ve already mentioned that NVIDIA launched this generation’s graphics in drops, and went from more to less; This means that while the RTX 4070 was released recently and we are now waiting for the RTX 4060 Ti to arrive, the RTX 4060 should be next on the list to arrive.
Of course, now you will wonder when they will arrive and at what price, but as we mentioned the only certainty in this regard is that they will arrive after the Ti model and that, logically, they will have to be cheaper. The assumption is that the publication of this graph should take place before the arrival of summer (around July), and since the price of the RTX 4060 Ti will surely be around $450, it is highly likely that they will move in a range between $350 and $400; In any case, the date and the price are mere guesses, because as we commented, there is no confirmed data in this regard and, in fact, NVIDIA seems to have adopted a position of “radio silence ” in this regard.
