It's a first party benchmark so expect less performance gains than that not to mention it is done in 1080p. The difference in 1440p will be negligible.
this is embarrassing
for comparison, the 3060 Ti performed \~40% better than the 2060 super, and was even faster on average than the 2080 Super
the 4060 Ti is barely matching the 3070 in performance
$299 40xx entry point, $399 8GB ti (same price the 3060ti launched at and everyone praised it), lots of people were expecting them to start the 4060ti at $499, given their borked pricing on all the existing 40xx cards. and they are actually listening to the criticism regarding lack of Vram by doing a 16GB version of the ti, which is starting at $499.
TLDR: Pricing is par with the 30xx cards, and they are actually doing a 16GB 4060ti.
If I remember right, I thought more of the praise for the 3060ti was getting 2080 level performance at $399. Getting fairly similar performance at $399 3 years later doesn't seen very impressive.
Starting it at $499 made no sense, and those people saying that were stupid or trolling, from all the negativity. $499 would make it cost more money per shader than a 4070, 4070ti, and 4090. And almost as much money as a 4080 per shader or per SM. Price per SM has been going down lower on the stack, not up.
$440 is the most it could have been ($13 per SM), and even then it would have probably looked like worse value than the 4070 in reviews.
8gb, so it will be obsolete faster in newer titles. It also doesn't have a big power consumption advantage either. $500 4060 ti is just not acceptable, even for the extra vram. 16gb would be more usable on the 4070, but we are stuck with overpriced 12gb vram soon to be obsolete cards.
The good thing I see out of this is, it's going to push down the used gpu prices in this segment. Which would be like $100 less for more or less the same performance of the 4060. Some come with more vram as well.
The fact people will be paying $100 more for an additional 8gb is insane. This is Nvidia taking reviewers "NOT enough VRAM" fear mongering, turning it into extra profit.
I don't know if the intent is to sell more RTX 4070 cards or what, but 4070 has 35% more raw compute power and 75% more total memory bandwidth. Who's going to give that up for 4gb extra VRAM?
