NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Review: Cutting Edge Gaming Under $400


NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti: Game Benchmarks And Resolution Scaling Tests

Company of Heroes 3 is a recently released real-time strategy game developed by Relic Entertainment. A follow up to the popular Company of Heroes 2, this latest addition to the franchise features new mechanics and modes and is set in the Italian and North African theaters of World War II. We tested the game at 1080p and 1440p resolutions, with maximum image quality settings...

Company of Heroes 3 doesn't make use of many advanced rendering techniques and isn't particularly taxing on any of the GPU we tested -- even the Radeon RX 6600 XT breaks 85FPS at 1440p. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti lands in the familiar position ahead of the RTX 3060 Ti, but behind the higher-end cards.

Far Cry 6 Benchmarks Benchmarks

Next up, we’ve got some benchmark scores from Far Cry 6, the latest installment in the storied franchise. Like its predecessors, Far Cry 6 is a fast-action shooter set in an open world environment with lush visuals and high graphics fidelity. The game is set on the fictional Caribbean island of Yara, ruled by dictator "El Presidente" Antón Castillo, famously played by actor Giancarlo Esposito. We tested all of the graphics cards here at multiple resolutions using Ultra Quality settings to see how they handled this AAA title.

The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti once again lands about in the middle of the pack in our FarCry 6 tests. As expected, it clearly outruns the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti at both resolutions, though, but it can't catch the RTX 3070 Ti (or Radeon RX 6700 XT) here.

Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is an action-adventure game where you play as Star-Lord and lead the rest of the Guardians from mission to mission. The game’s minimum requirements call for a Radeon RX 570 or GeForce GTX 1060-class GPU, but it also supports some of the latest graphics technologies, including DXR and DLSS.

With AMD's latest drivers, Ray Tracing doesn't function properly in this game, so we've dropped the Raderon RX 6700 XT and 6600 XT from the chart. Still, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti lands in the familiar position, right in the middle of the pack at both resolutions.

Flip on DLSS in Guardians and the framerates increase dramatically for all of the cards. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is able to break the 100FPS mark at 1440p when using DLSS, but it ultimately still finishes in a familiar position.  

Returnal Benchmarks

Returnal is a port of the popular PS5 game, which follows Selene as she searches for a way out of the barren landscape of an ancient civilization. Returnal is a fast-paced, third-person shooter that makes use of many advanced graphics techniques and employs technologies like DLSS, XeSS, and FSR...

The new GeForce RTX 4060 Ti performed particularly well in Returnal. At 1080p, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti lands in second place, but the RTX 3070 Ti overtakes it once the resolution is cranked up to 1440p.

Enabling DLSS (or XeSS, or FSR) results in a significant framerate boost. We must have bumped into a CPU or other limitation here as the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti and higher-end RTX 4070 performed similarly, and outran all of the other cards tested.

F1 2022 Benchmarks

F1 2022 is Codemaster’s latest Formula One racing simulation, and like previous version of the game, it sports impressive visuals. This latest addition to the franchise supports DirectX 12 with ray tracing, and it incorporates support for a number of AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) and NVIDIA technologies (like DLSS). We tested the games with its Ultra High graphics preset, with ray-tracing and TAA enabled at a couple of resolutions to see what the graphics cards could do.

The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti also performed well in F1 2022. Once again we see the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti out running the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, but this time it maintains its lead at both resolution and only the higher-end RTX 4070 finishes in front.

With DLSS or FSR 2 enabled, we once again see significant increases in performance, but it doesn't change the rankings. While all of the cards are able to achieve playable framrates at 1440p, GeForce RTX 40 series cards hold significant leads, especially when DLSS 3 frame generation is enabled, which isn't possible with any other card / architecture at this time.

Cyberpunk 2077 Benchmarks

Cyberpunk 2077 is based on the Cyberpunk tabletop role-playing game franchise. The tabletop game was published for the first time in 1988, and the intervening 30-some years have not changed the game world all that much. As a result, Cyberpunk 2077 looks somewhat retro-futuristic, as this is how people in the 1980s imagined what the future would look like. The game make use of virtually every advanced DirectX graphics technologies, features like DLSS, FSR and XeSS, and after a somewhat rocky release, it has been significantly updated and optimized for a multitude of hardware configurations...

The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti finishes just hair behind the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti in Cyberpunk, but well ahead of the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. We used some particular taxing settings in this game, which pulled frame rates down, but there's a "fix" for that...

Will DLSS enabled, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti just missed hitting the 60FPS mark at 1440p. Flip on frame generation, however, and the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti's minimun framerate hits nearly 70FPS with an 85 FPS average.
