Gigabyte has officially introduced four new video cards. All of them belong to the GeForce RTX 40 series models, and two of them will join the Super line. Rumors about the appearance of new Gigabyte accelerators have been circulating for quite some time and were fueled by various information leaks.

Models in the Eagle Ice line are essentially upgraded versions of Eagle accelerators, but in a fresher white color scheme. One of the main features of the Eagle Ice graphics cards is the triple-fan cooling system design, which also includes optional white rear panels.
The main difference between the GeForce RTX 4060 and RTX 4070 Eagle Ice accelerators, in addition to the actual characteristics, is their size. The RTX 4070 has a 2.5-slot design (50mm) and a length of 26cm, while the RTX 4060 features a 2-slot design and a length of 27cm.
Each Eagle Ice model is factory overclocked, just like the original series. It is also possible that in the future Gigabyte will release versions of accelerators without overclocking. As for the new products presented, we are talking about the following models:
GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER EAGLE OC ICE 16G GV-N407TSEAGLEOC ICE-16GD (frequency 2640 MHz, reference model indicator – 2610 MHz), GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER EAGLE OC ICE 12G GV-N407SEAGLEOC ICE-12GD (frequency 2535 MHz, this indicator pubic model – 2475 MHz), GeForce RTX 4060 Ti EAGLE OC ICE GV-N406TEAGLEOC ICE-8GD (frequency 2550 MHz, reference model – 2535 MHz), GeForce RTX 4060 EAGLE OC ICE 8G GV-N4060EAGLEOC ICE-8GD (frequency 2505 MHz, reference model noah models – 2460 MHz).
Note that the RTX 4060 Ti Eagle Ice accelerators are distinguished by a non-standard layout of interfaces for connecting a monitor: two DisplayPort 1.4a connectors and two HDMI 2.1a connectors. At the same time, the RTX 4070 Ti Super is equipped with three DisplayPort connectors and one HDMI. As for power connectors, the RTX 4060 uses a standard 8-pin PCIe connector, while the RTX 4070 Ti Super will require a 16-pin power cable or adapter.
Although Gigabyte has not yet announced the price of the presented Eagle Ice video cards, it will likely be similar to the price of Eagle accelerators, since they are essentially the same video cards, but in a different design.
