The GeForce RTX 4060 would consume as much as the GeForce RTX 3070.
May’s beginning, Kopite7kimi advanced the TDPs of the next GeForce RTX 4000 graphics cards. Since then, the individual has slightly revised his copy. From 600 W, the power of the GeForce RTX 4090 has increased to 450 W. Regarding the RTX 4080, it was initially 450 W, 420 W now. This is still 100 W more than the current one GeForce RTX 3080.
In another Tweet posted over the weekend, Kopite7kimi claims that the GeForce RTX 4060 would consume more, or at least as much, as the GeForce RTX 3070 ; this reference has a TDP of 220 W, while that of the GeForce RTX 3060 is 170 W. While all these values remain hypothetical, they all suggest an increase in maximum power consumption for the next NVIDIA GPUs.
The rise in the consumption of PC components: a boon for some, concern for others
24 GB of GDDR6X for the RTX 4090
The alleged specs of some GeForce RTX 4000s are collated in the table below. This generation might make its debut next August or September with the debut of the GeForce RTX 4090. The launches would then go by over the weeks; the GeForce RTX 4060 would arrive in early 2023.
