MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti VENTUS 2X BLACK 16G OC (912-V517-070)

The MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti VENTUS 3X OC graphics card, introduced in 2023, is part of the mid-range segment of the MSI Ventus line with a focus on functionality and cooling efficiency. This model is larger compared to the reference version of the NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti, measuring 31 cm in length and occupying two slots on the motherboard. It features a cooling system with three TORX FANs, which supports Zero Frozr technology for silent operation in low-load modes.

This is an enhanced version of the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti graphics card with increased video memory of 16 GB. It targets the upper part of the mid-price range and is ideal for creating gaming systems, providing smooth gaming experiences at 1080p and 1440p resolutions. The graphics processor is based on the AD106 chip using the Ada Lovelace architecture, manufactured on a TSMC 5nm process, featuring 4,352 CUDA cores and operating at a boosted clock of 2,580 MHz.

The video memory size is 16 GB GDDR6 with a frequency of 18,000 MHz, utilizing a 128-bit bus with a bandwidth of 288 GB/s. The graphics card supports all key technologies of the GeForce RTX 4000 series, including DLSS 3 for image upscaling with frame generation, ray tracing, and hardware support for AV1 encoding. The device's energy consumption is optimized compared to more powerful models from previous generations, allowing for the use of power supplies with a rating of 500-550W.

In terms of pure performance, the MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti VENTUS 2X BLACK 16G OC can comfortably provide 60 FPS in any 2022-2023 blockbuster game at maximum quality settings in 1080p resolution. According to average gaming tests, the RTX 4060 Ti outperforms its predecessor, the RTX 3060 Ti, by an average of 6-8%, but lags by an average of 8% behind the GeForce RTX 3070, with which it was originally compared in many reviews. For 2K gaming, it will mostly rely on the renowned DLSS 3.0 technology, which imperceptibly manipulates screen resolution and fills in missing frames. This reduces the number of stutters and lags, increases the smoothness of gameplay, and raises the FPS significantly.
