NVIDIA is getting ready to release its RTX 4060 series, which includes the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB, RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB, and RTX 4060. The company intends to unveil all three SKUs this month, though only the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB model will be available for purchase immediately.
The RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB and RTX 4060 versions are slated for a July release. The introduction of the 16 GB RTX 4060 Ti model comes as a surprise, considering the 128-bit memory bus constraint. Nonetheless, gamers can anticipate more frame buffer for storing high-resolution textures and expansive AI models.
A credible source reveals that NVIDIA has decided on four new SKUs, including the trio of RTX 4060 models. This choice is likely a response to the gaming community's feedback, who expressed disappointment with the RTX 4060 Ti's initial 8 GB VRAM offering. It appears that NVIDIA is now planning to introduce an RTX 4060 Ti SKU with an increased memory capacity of 16 GB, set to be available in July.

Apart from memory size, little is known about the differences between the 8 GB and 16 GB RTX 4060 Ti variants. The RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB is rumored to boast 34 out of 36 streaming multiprocessors (SM) located on the 5 nm "AD106" silicon, providing NVIDIA with some theoretical leeway to enable additional shaders. In contrast, the RTX 4060 is a considerably distinct SKU based on the fully-utilized "AD107" silicon, featuring 30 SM or 3,840 CUDA cores. However, it remains possible that some RTX 4060 cards could be derived from a substantially trimmed-down AD106.
NVIDIA is expected to announce all three cards at the Computex Keynote, though the internal embargo documents do not specify an announcement date. The RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB will hit the market this month, while the 16 GB SKU and non-Ti RTX 4060 are scheduled for a July release.
