Asus’ low-profile RTX 4060 still takes up two slots, but its shorter shroud fits more easily into SFF builds

Although small form-factor desktops are rather popular these days, makers of graphics cards, for some reason, refrain from making low-profile add-in-boards for gamers. Regarding the GeForce RTX 40-series, only Gigabyte introduced a low-profile GeForce RTX 4060 graphics board last August. Now Asus is catching up with its GeForce RTX 4060 LP BRK 8GB GDDR6 product that promises to pack a punch in a very compact package, making it one of the best graphics cards for SFF desktops.

The Asus GeForce RTX 4060 LP BRK 8 GB GDDR6 graphics card carries Nvidia’s AD107 graphics processor featuring 3072 CUDA cores and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory connected to the GPU using a 128-bit interface. The board’s graphics chip operates at up to 2490 MHz in OC mode, which is just 30 MHz higher than the frequency recommended by Nvidia. The graphics card boasts 15 FP32 TFLOPS of compute performance and 272 GB/s memory bandwidth. The compute performance of the board is 25% higher compared to the compute performance of the Xbox Series X GPU, but the console boasts 560 GB/s of peak memory bandwidth.

Interestingly, Asus positions its GeForce RTX 4060 LP BRK 8 GB GDDR6 as a ‘low-profile, compact graphics card that enables multi-monitor productivity,’ which implies that the add-in-board is generally aimed at users who need four display outputs (two DisplayPorts and two HDMI) and more or less decent performance in a compact form-factor. However, the board can be used for an SFF gaming PC or a home theater PC (HTPC).
