NVIDIA is set to release its budget-friendly GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card series next week, but has not yet revealed the performance level of the smaller Ada Lovelace AD107 GPU. Rumors suggest that the card will have 3,072 CUDA cores, 24 RT cores, 96 Tensor cores, 96 TMUs, and 32 ROPs, with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 128-bit wide memory bus, and an MSRP of $299. Benchleaks has leaked the first set of test results via a database leak, with two Geekbench 6 runs conducted on a test system featuring an Intel Core i5-13600K CPU, ASUS Z790 ROG APEX motherboard, DDR5-6000 memory, and the aforementioned GeForce card.
The GPU Compute test using the Vulkan API resulted in a score of 99419, while another using OpenCL achieved 105630. However, as this is only a single sample, variations can be expected when other units are tested in Geekbench prior to the June 29 launch. The RTX 4060 is approximately 12% faster (in Vulkan) than its direct predecessor, the RTX 3060, with the gap widening to almost 20% in OpenCL performance. The RTX 3060 Ti offers around 3-5% faster performance than the RTX 4060. Actual in-game benchmarking is expected to be carried out soon.
