About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (8 GB) GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (8 GB) is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q2 2023 with a MSRP of $399. It is built on the Ada Lovelace GPU microarchitecture (codename AD106) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 4060 Ti has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 2,250 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 288 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 4060 Ti includes 4,352 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 2,310 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,535 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 136 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 48 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 136 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 34 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 4060 Ti occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 160 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 4060 Ti has the 28th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 45.70% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 47,803 score and $399 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 119.81. This is the 7th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q4 2016 with a MSRP of $139. It is built on the Pascal GPU microarchitecture (codename GP107) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 1050 Ti has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,752 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 112.1 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The GTX 1050 Ti includes 768 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,291 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,392 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 48 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GTX 1050 Ti occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The GTX 1050 Ti has the 186th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 9.04% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 9,453 score and $139 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 68.01. This is the 47th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
