Bottom line: how fast is the GeForce RTX 4060?
At 1440p Ultra, the GeForce RTX 4060 averages 66 fps in Baldur's Gate 3, per Gamers Nexus. For local LLM inference it generates 18.0 tokens/sec running gemma2:9b at Q4_K_M under ollama, per DatabaseMart. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 24,856 points, per WorthPlaying. Its 8 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: the gemma2:9b run above (9.2B parameters) is the largest model on file at 4-bit quantization on this card.
Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.
The GeForce RTX 4060 is a graphics card from the Ada Lovelace family from NVIDIA. Key on-paper specs include 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM, 115W TDP.
