The ASUS NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 OC features 8GB of GDDR6 memory. It is a budget graphics card designed for 1080p performance with great efficiency. It was launched with a competitive MSRP of $299 USD, though as of publication date it is available for an average of $340 USD from partner manufacturers across various online retailers. It is overclocked out of the box at 2535 MHz, versus 2505 MHz in default mode.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
THE GOOD
- Size
It has two fans, and is small and light weight. Good for small form factor builds.
THE BAD
- Memory Configuration
This card has a 128-bit memory configuration, which is different from the standard 256-bit configuration. A higher memory bus width allows more data to be transferred between the memory and the graphics processor at the same speed as a lower bus width.
- PCIe
This card only supports PCIe 4x8. A PCIe 4 x16 slot has 16 data lanes, whereas a PCIe 4 x8 slot has 8 data lanes. The difference in the number of lanes means that x16 slots offer double the bandwidth compared to x8 slots.
THE REST
- Overall
Overall, the RTX 4060 and RTX 4060 Ti are quite similar. If DLSS or ray tracing capabilities aren't important to you, AMD's Radeon RX 7600 offers comparable price-to-performance and may even perform better in some games.
Built on a 5nm process with the AD107 graphics processor, the RTX 4060 OC consists of 18,900 million transistors within a 159 mm2 die. It features 48 Render Output Units (ROPs), 96 texture mapping units, 3072 shading units, and 24 ray tracing acceleration cores.
With a typical board power of 115W, this partner card by ASUS has a two and half slot, dual fan design that fits most computer cases. In the Box it includes the graphics card, a Collector's Card, and a Quick Start Guide. It does not have a 12VHPWR power connector but rather an 8-pin PCIe power connector.

The RTX 4060 OC supports DirectX 12 Ultimate and NVIDIA's full suite of DLSS 3 and ray tracing technologies. It features NVIDIA's 8th Generation Encoder, and 5th Generation Decoder, with full support for H264 Encode/Decode, H265/HEVC Encode/Decode, and AV1 Encode/Decode. It has a Dual BIOS switch on the graphics card to toggle between Quiet and Performance BIOS profiles without software.
We will periodically retest graphic cards with updated drivers. We continuously monitor and update our results for accuracy. Stay tuned for the latest test results and insights on this product and others as we aim to provide up-to-date information on a consistent basis.
We actively address test bench variance in our evaluation process. Our methodology involved validation and calibration procedures to ensure consistency and reliability across all tests. The verified testbed variance for benchmarks in this product page is +/- 0.25%.
By monitoring and controlling variables such as hardware configurations, ambient temperatures, and system settings, we minimize potential sources of variance that could affect our results. This detailed approach enables us to deliver the most objective and accurate assessment.
