ASUS Dual Nvidia RTX 4060 Review
mmorpg.comThe second card in the 4060 family of GPUs is on the horizon, with the RTX 4060 set to launch on July 29th. At $299, the RTX 4060 aims to bring high-quality gaming at 1080p and provide a compelling upgrade path for those still holding onto their aging Pascal and Turing GPUs. But does the performance — and the advantages that Ada Lovelace brings to the price point — make for a reason to upgrade?
The RTX 4060 doesn't have a Founder's Edition board like the RTX 3060 before it last gen, so the card we're reviewing today is the ASUS Dual RTX 4060 OC variant.

Something in my caveman brain goes «that's going to be fast» when the GPU looks aggressive, for some reason. As such, the ASUS Dual RTX 4060 OC has a dual axial fan design surrounded by a semi-transparent black shroud that is emblazoned with the ASUS branding and aesthetic.
The two fans adorn the front of the card, providing the heat sink with a steady flow of cool air. Using an Axial fan design, ASUS states that its smaller fan hub allows more air to flow across the heatsink, keeping the RTX 4060 cool even under load.
A dual slot card, this makes for an easy upgrade for those who are looking to not need to replace their case like some of the early 40-series cards might have forced on some users. Thankfully too, at least the ASUS Dual RTX 4060 OC also has a standard 8-pin power connector, meaning you needn't worry about any adapters like the 30 or 40 series cards have required in the past.
At first glance, the RTX 4060 is simply just a shaved down RTX 4060 Ti 8GB. With fewer CUDA cores, 4th Generation Tensor cores and
