Avast ye! Nvidia be settin' sail with the RTX 4060! They be tellin' us when it'll be for sale, the booty be worth the price, and it'll make the RTX 3060 walk the plank with its faster performance!

Ahoy there mateys! Nvidia has just announced that the RTX 4060 graphics card will be released on June 29th, and it looks like it will be a mighty upgrade for those still using older hardware. According to Nvidia's official benchmarks, the RTX 4060 is up to double the framerate of its predecessor, the RTX 3060 in some games. However, the real power of this new card is in its AI-powered frame generation in DLSS 3. Without this feature, it's only 20% faster than the RTX 3060. But don't worry, the power consumption is lower at an average of 110W compared to the 3060's 170W. Plus, the MSRP of $299 is cheaper than the RTX 4060 Ti and may offer better value. Nvidia notes that 77% of gamers play at 1080p or lower resolutions, and for these gamers, the RTX 4060 is a great upgrade.

It's exciting to finally have a solid release date and official benchmark results from Nvidia, rather than just rumors. Although a 20% generational uplift may seem a bit underwhelming, it lines up with the previous performance jump between the RTX 2060 and the RTX 3060. Plus, the launch price is cheaper than the 3060's original price of $329. This could potentially be the budget GPU gamers have been waiting for, especially after the expensive flagship RTX 4090. All hands on deck, it's time to upgrade!
