NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 – Well-known manufacturer confirms VRAM capacity in upcoming graphics cards

Already in April of this year, the premiere of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 graphics cards is planned. Soon after that, the market is expected to release the finished model 4060, which will be aimed at users of equipment from the middle budget segment. Although the specifications of both cards have not been precisely confirmed by the US company, it is likely that we have just officially learned how much memory they will offer.

According to information from the changelog of the GIGABYTE Control Center app, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 and 4060 will offer 12GB and 8GB VRAM, respectively. The latter value should be seen as a slight disappointment.

The information is practically official, as it comes from the changelog of the GIGABYTE Control Center. The latest version of the program, number 23.03.02.01, mentions the addition of support for two models of graphics systems. One is GeForce RTX 4070 (GV-N4070AERO OC-12GD), the other is GeForce RTX 4060 (GV-N4060GAMING OC-8GD). As it is easy to decipher, the first of the GPUs listed will offer 12GB of VRAM. In the second case, you can count on 8 GB. This is essentially the first official information about the amount of memory in Ada Lovelace cards from this budget segment.

The information provided can be treated as certain, since it is difficult to assume that GIGABYTE is wrong about the products it brings to the market. Accordingly, some previous leaks regarding the specifications of the graphic systems mentioned will succeed. We’re not sure at this time if NVIDIA plans to release a GeForce RTX 4060 Ti GPU in the near future, which would have better specs than the card without adding the Ti. Regardless, the RTX 4060’s 8GB of VRAM should be considered a slight disappointment, since the model from the same budget segment in the previous generation was available in a version with up to 12GB of memory. The official announcement of the newest member of the Ada Lovelace family is expected at NVIDIA GTC 2023, which begins today (March 20).
