Introduction

The ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 4060 90YV0JC0-M0NA00 (note: there’s a discrepancy between the title and specification model number; I’ll use 90YV0JC0-M0NA00 throughout this review) promises a compelling blend of performance and compact design. I’ve spent the last few weeks putting this card through its paces, testing its capabilities in various games and applications. This review aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of its strengths and weaknesses.

Features

The ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 4060 boasts several key features designed to enhance its performance and longevity. The most notable is the dual Axial-tech fan design. These fans, with their smaller hubs and longer blades, work together to generate significant airflow, ensuring efficient heat dissipation, even under heavy load. The card’s compact size is another noteworthy aspect; at 22.7 cm long and occupying 2.5 slots, it’s suitable for a wide range of PC builds. The inclusion of DisplayPort 1.4a and HDMI 2.1a ports offers broad compatibility with modern monitors.

Performance

In my testing, the ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 4060 consistently delivered smooth frame rates in most games at 1080p and 1440p resolutions. At 1080p, I was able to maintain high frame rates even with demanding titles such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Microsoft Flight Simulator, although at higher settings some compromises were needed. At 1440p, performance was slightly lower, but still quite playable. Ray tracing performance, while not as impressive as higher-end cards, was adequate for a mid-range GPU. The card remained relatively quiet during normal usage, with fan noise only becoming noticeable under heavy load.

I also tested the card’s performance in various benchmark applications, such as 3DMark Time Spy and Fire Strike. The results were in line with expectations for a card in its class. Overall performance was good for 1080p and acceptable for 1440p, depending on settings.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• Compact size
• Effective cooling solution
• Good performance at 1080p
• Relatively quiet operation
• Broad compatibility

Cons:

• Performance can bottleneck at higher resolutions and settings
• Ray tracing performance is limited
• Price point may be slightly high for the performance offered compared to competing cards.

Final Verdict

The ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 4060 90YV0JC0-M0NA00 offers a solid balance of performance and cooling in a compact form factor. While its performance might not be groundbreaking, it’s perfectly capable of delivering smooth gaming experiences at 1080p and acceptable performance at 1440p. The card’s effective cooling solution keeps it relatively quiet, even under load. If you’re looking for a mid-range graphics card for 1080p gaming, this is a good option. However, those aiming for high-refresh-rate 1440p gaming might find its performance slightly limiting. Overall, I would recommend this card for those seeking a reliable and compact solution for a well-balanced 1080p gaming experience.
