ASUS RTX 4060 with SSD slot seems at EEC
In line with the EEC itemizing, ASUS will launch its RTX 4060 graphics card.
ASUS is reportedly set to launch its RTX 4060 Ti graphics card following the latest unveiling of a prototype just a few weeks in the past. The corporate has found out that sure graphics playing cards, which don’t absolutely make the most of all 16 lanes of the PCIe interface, can effectively allocate the remaining lanes for SSD assist. This innovation might broaden storage choices for customers who would in any other case depend on motherboard slots.
The preliminary graphics card to make use of this know-how is the RTX 4060 Ti DUAL graphics card, which is alleged to return in two variants: one with manufacturing unit overclocking and one with out, as indicated by the EEC (Eurasian Financial Fee) submitting:

In July, ASUS China showcased these graphics playing cards outfitted with Samsung 980 PRO 2TB SSDs, which have been mounted on the bottom of the graphics card. The PCB’s design permits the storage to be straight connected to the graphics card’s cooler. Which means that it not solely makes use of the GPU as an M.2 drive adapter but additionally harnesses the cardboard’s cooler for environment friendly cooling.
ASUS is but to completely disclose the small print of how this know-how works. It might probably require a devoted ASUS motherboard or, what could be a significantly better choice, be supplied as a plug-in choice appropriate with any motherboard. Nonetheless, the mixing of this storage resolution would require ASUS to make changes to the thermal and energy points of the graphics card, doubtless leading to elevated energy consumption.

Based mostly on preliminary demonstrations, the SSDs built-in with the RTX 4060 Ti card have been working at temperatures roughly 10°C decrease and have been able to delivering almost the complete velocity of the PCIe Gen4x4 interface, reaching of as much as 6.8 GB/s of sequential learn.
The SSD variant of the RTX 4060 Ti DUAL graphics card might probably have restricted availability restricted to particular areas. To this point, ASUS Russia is the one entity that has proven plans for the cardboard’s introduction to their market. A fast lookup of the product code (DUAL-RTX4060TI-O8G-SSD) doesn’t reveal any indications of the graphics card being accessible in different areas at the moment.
