In years past, almost all graphics cards came with an electrical PCIe x16 connection. Low-end cards have been recent exceptions. AMD's Radeon RX 6400 XT actually has an x4 electrical interface, but in 2023, x8 connections are becoming more common. The latest examples include the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 and RTX 4060 Ti.
The aforementioned cards have x8 electrical connections, but still have x16 physical connections even though there's no need for them. Twitter user @fpsojisan_yt (via Tom's Hardware) spotted a Palit card that bucks this trend. The Palit GeForce RTX 4060 Dual comes with an x8 physical connection. And I think it's a pretty good idea. Not that it will make much of a difference to most users one way or the other, but there are some that will benefit from it.
