Performance Analysis
The RTX 4060 provides 15.1 TFLOPS dense FP32 compared to 6.5 TFLOPS dense FP32 on the RTX 2060, which translates to higher throughput for dense matrix workloads in training and inference pipelines. The RTX 4060 also lists 242 TFLOPS FP8 with sparsity, a figure absent from RTX 2060 specifications. Memory bandwidth stands at 336 GB/s for the RTX 2060 versus 272 GB/s for the RTX 4060, so batch sizes in memory-bound kernels may remain larger on the older card despite its lower dense FP32 rating. Lower TDP of 115W on the RTX 4060 versus 160W on the RTX 2060 further improves efficiency per dense FP32 TFLOPS in sustained runs.
