Which GPU should you choose for Blender?
RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB is faster for Blender rendering, but L4 24 GB has more VRAM. That makes this a speed-versus-scene-headroom decision.
Cycles rendering performance
RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB leads by 8.5% in the Renderjuice Blender benchmark model (3,740 vs 3,447). For render-time-first decisions, that is the card to prioritize.
VRAM and scene capacity
L4 24 GB has more scene headroom with 24 GB of VRAM versus 8 GB on RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB. That matters most for large environments, dense geometry, high-resolution textures, and less optimized production files.
Power ratings and cooling
L4 24 GB is the lower-power option at 72 W TDP, compared with 160 W for RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB. If render speed is close, that can make L4 24 GB easier to cool and run quietly.
Is the upgrade worthwhile?
RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB is both the newer and faster Blender rendering choice here. The main reason to choose L4 24 GB would be price, availability, existing ownership, or a specific workstation requirement.
Comparison summary
RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB leads the Blender benchmark score by 8.5%.
Fastest in Cycles: RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB 9% faster than L4 24 GB.
Most VRAM: L4 24 GB 200% more VRAM than RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB.
Lowest power draw: L4 24 GB 55% lower rating than RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB.
Cheapest: RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB 85% cheaper than L4 24 GB.
Best value for money: RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB 623% better value than L4 24 GB.
L4 24 GB has 24 GB of VRAM, while RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB has 8 GB, which matters when scenes, textures, or geometry get heavier.
If you are deciding between these cards for Blender, focus first on Blender benchmark score, VRAM capacity, memory bandwidth, and whether your scenes are likely to benefit more from raw speed or extra memory headroom. The comparison table above keeps those tradeoffs in one place.
