MSI GeForce RTX 4060 VENTUS 2X BLACK 8G OC
A short 199 mm RTX card to assess as an exact-board fit and price proposition.
The VENTUS 2X BLACK 8G OC is a compact RTX 4060 candidate for a case where length matters. Compare its actual delivered price with newer 8 GB cards before buying older stock; a previous-generation product needs a convincing complete-build advantage.
Consider it when
- A space-conscious build whose games and applications fit within the intended 8 GB memory budget.
- A GPU replacement that can reuse a suitable PSU with an 8-pin PCIe cable.
Look again when
- Work requiring more VRAM, or a listing priced close to a newer alternative with better matching workload evidence.
THE SPACE IT NEEDS
Make room for the whole card
- Card length
- 199mm
- Card height
- 120mm
- Card thickness
- 41mm
Compare length with the space left after front fans, radiators and drive cages. Card thickness and power-cable clearance are separate checks.

The checks that can change your choice
The slot is not the whole connection
This card uses PCIe 4.0 x8. Check the actual motherboard slot and its CPU-dependent mode, especially when upgrading an older system or sharing lanes with other devices.
Short does not mean universally small
The board measures 199 × 120 × 41 mm. Allow room for its power cable and airflow as well as the card itself, and verify MSI’s 550 W system PSU recommendation against your configuration.
