The GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card from NVIDIA is currently on sale in the US for $299, but gamers aren’t very interested in the GPU.

We can see that just one person showed up for the GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card at Dospara, at least one big PC store in the nation, in images tweeted by Hermita_Akiba that depict a variety of Japanese hardware stores. The card recently went on sale, and the retailer released its sales embargo at the same time, but it doesn’t seem like NVIDIA’s most recent $299 US offering has attracted much interest.

The sole customer who showed up bought the MSI Gaming X GeForce RTX 4060 and stated that he was replacing his previous GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card is widely offered by major US, EU, and UK retailers as well, but it is still too early to tell if the card is moving any significant quantities there. We will, however, know in a few weeks because hardware sales trackers can tell us if the card managed to sell a respectable number of units in the first few weeks or not.

Given that this card seems more like an RTX 3050 improvement than an RTX 3060 replacement, we think $249 US would have been a much better pricing for it. There are also several current-generation options available for older RTX 2060 and GTX 1060 users, like the RTX 3060 Ti, RX 6700 XT, and even Intel’s Arc A770, which could feel like a better option than NVIDIA’s RTX 4060 graphics card.
