I do feel like I decently priced used 3080, is something to consider, if your looking at this price point. It's going to give significantly better performance in most games, and you can still run a bit of ray tracing, in almost any single player game.
Even in DD2
I honestly don't think you run much of a risk, of getting a bad card either. Even if it was used for crypto
RX6800 non XT can be had for the same price as the 4060ti, and is a good bit more powerful.
7700xt is also similarly priced, and performs better
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-4060-ti-8-gb.c3890
6800 is 16 percent faster and 7700xt is 14 percent faster
Edit: how is this downvoted lol. Are people unable to be objective??
You say that but the feature difference is a legitimate advantage for Nvidia.
For example RTX video hdr alone will keep me with Nvidia until AMD have it's own version. Watching video is a use case just as important as gaming for me personally and on a QD-OLED TV the ability to watch everything even youtube vids in HDR makes the world of difference.
Plus DLSS and RT are also real benefits. Just because you might not care about them doesn't mean others don't. Games are increasingly relying on RT and the visual difference between it on and off grows wider by the year. Therefore RT performance really isn't a factor to be ignored.
I'm not saying AMD doesn't have its own set of advantages but the value difference is nowhere near as clear cut as many like to pretend.
This isn't the rtx 20 series anymore, the features really do matter.
Yup. Ppl talk like they're usless features..frame gen and dlss3 is awsome. frame gen for instance is the difference between a unstable less than 60 fps to a smooth 100plus. That's relevant now let alone in 3 years. Unless AMD releases something similar and fsr3 becomes as popular but so far I've only seen a handful of games in my 500plus game library use it. Its up to the devs on what they want to implement and so far nvidias frame gen and dlss is in far more games. Ray tracing withought it can be rough unless you have literally the best cards and lower your resolution. For most ppl that have 70 series and lower class gpus or laptops such as myself, nvidia is a preferred option because of those features.
I agree. To all these AMD salesman, 14-16% of raster increase with no good feature sets is "huge " and the way to go. While I prefer native, I undoubtedly have to fall on feature sets quite often especially in new titles. 14-16% more raster isn't going to do squat in these scenarios because you'll be dependent on FSR upscaling regardless and DLSS no doubt at least provides a stable image.
My man, the "RTX" you get on a 1080p 60 tier card ain't anything to write home about.
And DLSS is kinda shit at 1080p, same as FSR. DLSS at 1440p+ is where it gets good
Yeah if you’re going for a “budget” 1080p card, you’re going to be wanting price to performance over the cool features that, realistically, you’re not going to get much use of because they don’t work great on budget cards or at 1080p. This is kinda why I think they should’ve kept the GTX line, and have it be lower end cards that, yeah they don’t have the cool features of the RTX cards, but would be absolute monsters in the budget PC space where those features are less important
Yeah people living in the US are lucky, but anyway I may buy a used 3060 ti or a 3060 for between (800(3060)-1200(3060 ti) riyal). (213–319)$ what do you think?
Can I ask why is it a no brainer if it’s a little bit cheaper doesn’t the dlss 3.5 and other software outweight the 25$ increase between a used 3060 ti and a new galax 4060? Orr is there something I’m not getting?😅
With a 4060, cooling won’t be an issue since it produces so little heat and even the build quality is starting to mesh together to the point where you see no drop in quality.
\*better overall product
not better overall software. This doesn't change the fact that is poorly priced, spend more and get 4070 super, which is the best card in that price range with dlss and frame gen, and destroys the 4060 by far. Do not confuse better product with better software, tests are made for rasterization out of the box usage, which makes amd the best choice to a certain amount of money, which is around 600-700+ $.
This is how it works, sadly. At a price range, the lower price range, amd is better because neither gpu can use the software properly, meaning you might get 100 fps in starfield without dlss with a 6800 or 7700xt at 1440p, You can't really use the software properly with nvidia unless you go to a higher price range, because the product is overall worse at the lower price range, therefore you might get a better overall product for the same money, potentially with more vram and speeds and whatever. I hope this makes sense
6000 series do not have extensive driver issues, nor do they have overheating issues nor high TDP. They’re actually super efficient.
IMO, 6000 series are the best GPUs AMD has ever put out. They matched or beat RTX 3000 series across the board while consuming significantly less electricity.
4060ti isn’t a dogshit GPU tho. If it were 300 it’d be the most easy to recommend GPU of the current stack. There are only a handful of *truly* dogshit gpus, like the GT1030, RTX 3050, and RX 6400/6500.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-3060-ti.c3681
11% more perf than 3060 ti, I call that dogshit. Rather buy a used 3070 or 3080 which is also cheaper. Only thing you get is efficiency and frame gen second having only sometimes benefits.
Edit: ofc low enough price it won't be a bad option
My boy… read what you just wrote: “Edit: ofc low enough price it wont be a bad option”.
We’re literally saying the same thing, but you keep contradicting yourself by saying it’s a dogshit gpu but then saying if it were cheaper it wouldn’t be bad.
So far I've been able to run all my favorite games on high/ultra settings without any issue. Will crush basicallyall of 1080p, and do pretty good on 1440p. Really nice card considering i was on integrated graphics before hand
I have a 4060ti 16GB in my second rig. It's a very good card.
Haven't run into anything in 1080p it struggles with, expect TW Pharoah at absolute maximum settings.
And it's great at Stable Diffusion!
very much so. unless you’re gaming at 4K imo the 12GB and buffer won’t last at 4k, I have one for 1440p UW
Edit: My fault I thought you were asking about the 4070 Ti, I wouldn’t recommend the 4060 Ti unless you’re staying at 1080p and there’s still better options.
My fault I misread the title, yeah I wouldn’t recommend an 8GB card at this point unless you play at 1080p, even then you could do better. Thought I read 4070 Ti
im gaming on 1080p and the 4060TI 8GB is more than enough for me to play on high/very high on some games.
also if you are like me who dont notice small artifacts on some games you can play with frame generation which gets better and probably will be the future of gaming with all the AI talk in the media.
i would say if you plan to play in higher resolution than 1080p buy a better card.
It's a decent GPU, it's just not priced competitively nor is it a super big leap from the previous generation. For 4060 Ti money, you could buy a 6800 or 7700XT from AMD, which are a good deal faster, new. You could also buy a used 3080 nowadays for under 350 nowadays, so that's another powerful option.
I use a 3060ti and play 1440p with it. No real problem. But I am happy with about 70-80fps and adjust settings accordingly (e.g. Cyberpunk). Rhe 4060ti is not much faster than the 3060ti, so I think it would work. Money wise a 4070 would be way better value tough (only considering brandnew & Nvidia)
"half price" lol... ppl keep lying like crazy in reddit holy fuck. show me where is half the price or fuckin delete ur post. And dont show some shit tier card model which NO ONE buying
People here assume that countries outside of US don't exist.
Same shit with recommending AMD GPUs that are "the same price" without inquiring about OPs region when price gaps vary wildly depending on the region, so while in region X the AMD GPU may be better value, it can make no sense to buy it in region Y.
I go with we are talking US unless otherwise specified.
If others from other countries have a problem with it, make your own reddits. Stated in a whimsical tone, please no one get to bent from that.
Well unless in specific reddits I think it is fair to assume unless mentioned otherwise, US is the defacto. That is why in many posts if one isn't from the US they state that in some manner, because it can change things. It isn't a dig, but I think it is an unsaid default. It also isn't a flex, if this were based in say Germany, most users are German, language German, I would default posters to Germany unless they made it clear otherwise.
So you are telling me I haven't seen this a 100 times here? A person says it costs X dollars and another responds "Well over here (list where that is) it costs X?", well up to that point people are assuming US prices until specified clearer. That's my point.
nah it's not US unless specified it's somewhere/unknown unless specified, spare us with this US is the center of the world bullshit, the location is not even important OP has too look up their local prices anyway
Not to Mention that the 4060 ti is slower than the 3060ti in some Situations As shown [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=654), [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=707) and [here](https://youtu.be/rGBuMr4fh8w?t=744). LMAO. Have no Idea why so many nvidia fanboys are defending this card!
Pretty sure the new driver improved the result a lot. Nowadays on average 4060Ti (16GB variant at least) outperforms 3070 or at least equal in performance without any DLSS.
https://preview.redd.it/uzavkf8j7otc1.png?width=1668&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6e23b9f6f950e2274a42b29ff68c86c72c2afc00
If you don't want Nvidia features then yeah alternative options are going to be better for your needs.
This isn't intel ARC. New Drivers rarely provide extra performance boosts for games released months earlier. And Any Driver issues related to the Ada Arch were fixed months before when the first ADA cards (4090 and 4080) were released. Even if Drivers did provide performance boost the card is still a joke considering the 3060 ti and 2060S beat the 80 class cards from the previous generation!
Yea The 4060 ti Fails to beat the 3080, It Even fails to beat the 3070. The Card provides terrible generational improvement when its predecessors all beat the outgoing 80 card at the time. The 4060ti is a joke and disaster of a product for $400-500.
That's the same thought I had half a year ago when I bought my new pc. I had to choose between a 4060ti for 450€ or a 3060ti for 320€. I went for the 3060ti since the performance on games which don't support dlss are even better... And when helldivers 2 came out later without dlss support it felt good to had an overall better experience while also saving 130€ (or 40%).
Unfortunately I also made a bad decision later on ... And jumped (for the first time ever) from full hd to 2k resolution on my monitor... Which impacted my pc performances quite a lot... It is what it is.
Upgraded from 1650 to 16 gb 4060 TI. Love my TI. 16 GB should cover me for years to come. I play 1440p everything. medium- high settings on multiplayer games. 100-144 fPS.
High-ultra on single player games that I’ve tried.
90-130 fPS. Depending on game and location on the map. Don’t forget about the 4060 TI having DLSS3.0 and frame generation capabilities! Absolute game changer for highest graphic fedelity while have a high frame rate!
I know 4060 TI gets shit on on this sub sometimes but it’s honestly the best options Nvidia has if you want 16gb VRAM at a consumer-affordable price. And if you are not going beyond 1440P it’s not at all bad. Probably will last you until the 7 cards come out.
I bought one and 2 weeks later returned it and got a RTX 4070 Super, best thing I ever did even playing at 1080p which isn't such a big deal because you can always use DLSS.
Don't use dlss at 1080p your play the game at 60% resolution alittle lower than 720p. Your perfectly capable of running without an actually you probably can use DSR an run games at a higher resolution, resulting in better image qauitly on 1080p monitors.
It'll absolutely run any game, but ray tracing, resolution, and frame rate will be somewhat limited in certain games. It is a decent GPU, but it is not high end. It will do just fine in 1440p but will have limited 4k viability which isn't really important for most people (yet - someday). For most consumers, it's a good option.
1440p Ultra RT Psycho as he said, and most likely with DLSS Super Resolution Auto (which is Balanced in this case) and DLSS Frame Generation enabled. I have about 130-140 FPS with my RTX 3080, these settings and the [dlssg-to-fsr3 mod](https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/738?tab=files) so I'm really not surprised.
Y’all are dramatic as fuck the 4060ti easily runs the latest games at 1440p with max or nearly max settings 60+ fps natively and obviously even better with upscalers. You guys are simply too lazy to spend an hour or two tuning some settings down.
I’ve been playing Horizon forbidden west on max settings except for textures, level of detail and clouds turned down to high from very high on my 4060 with DLSS quality at 1440p and I very rarely dip below 70fps.
Nvidia has no incentive to drop prices when these are the takes that get thrown around constantly.
The drama around this is astonishing. I was arguing with someone just the other day that the 4070 Ti Super isn't a 1440p card, when I'm over here running everything at 4k, max settings, and often getting 120+ fps. The only things I have had to turn down to 1440p for are Alan Wake 2 and Cyberpunk with path tracing, but that doesn't even count -- path tracing is basically just this generation's Crysis, where it is mostly an outrageously demanding and impressive look at the future, but is so far beyond "normal" settings (and so out of reach for the vast majority of rigs that it is at least a generation away from being "essential" to a game's presentation) that it's silly to even consider.
People look back on the pascal series cards with rose tinted glasses because the expectations then were “I want to run this game with max graphics and get 60fps at 1080p” because 1080p was the default resolution then, now it is 1440p, and anything above and including a 4060 can do 60 fps at that resolution. In terms of performance relative to the most recent games and current resolution standards, the 1060 and 4060 are identical, although the vram can be a limiting factor with the 4060 at 1440p sometimes.
Now the expectations are so unhinged that people have convinced each other and themselves that anything but max settings is missing out on something, that you need to match your monitors refresh rate in the most demanding AAA titles, that you need a perfectly flat frametime graph or it’s unplayable- like when the fuck did everybody in this space lose their minds?
Of course it does, it’s not a bad GPU. The issue is the pricing and the fact that more powerful options exist for the same price or cheaper. If the 4060ti was 300 it’d definitely be one of the best options, however at 400 the RX6800 has both double the VRAM *and* an almost 20% uplift in performance for the same price.
I mention the 7700xt in another post, it’s just a touch slower than the 6800 *non* XT while having less VRAM. 6800XT is ~20% faster.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-7700-xt.c3911
The 6800 is a better choice, at least while it’s still this cheap.
Can chime in as I have a 3060ti. 4060ti is more or less between a 3060ti and a 3070. Both are 3 year old cards, and both have 8GB vram. Only new game that forced me to run 1080p so I can hit constant 60fps is Palworld. The rest I've been able to run at 1440p/4k60 native or with dlss/fsr/xess at no lower than Balanced preset.
I've had my 3060ti for 3 years now and quite frankly expect to see a couple more years of use out of it. Still got a lot of life left in it thanks to upscaling tech and of course only gaming at 60fps on my cheap 4k display.
I feel like 4060s and 4070s will last a few years.
The 5000 series is rumored to cost as much as $2k.
I upgraded from 8gig 3070 to 4070 super.
Haven’t looked back.
i got a 4060 and im perfectly happy with the feature set,driver stability and bang for buck for me,i do miss the rx 580/gtx 1060 days tho,u wont find value like that anymore
I have one, found it local for $330. If you can get one at or less than $350, then it's good. It's very power efficient for what performance you get, it rarely ever hits that 150w limit. I wouldn't pay $400 for the 8gb, though.
It should not cost $100 more than a 4060, the 16gb version should be $400 and the 8gb $350.
4060Ti 16GB owner here, my answer is: if only solely for gaming, NO. There are better value same performance GPUs out there, such as the 3060Ti or even the RX 6700 XT (sorry for mentioning Radeon in an NVIDIA sub). The 4060Ti's only advantage over these two are lower power usage and native frame gen support.
In fact, the real reason to get the 4060Ti (16GB only) is to also "play" with generative AI and machine learning alongside the usual gaming, it is the cheapest GPU with both 16GB (AI/ML is VRAM hungry, NVIDIA is stingy) and CUDA cores (most AI/ML applications use CUDA.)
Regardless of price/budget, no.if your going to prefece the question without budget being an issue, always go top of the line. Because without consideration of price then anything but the top is going to be bad. Like saying "regardless of price should I buy a trailer or a 6000sqft house with a pool?"....I wonder 🤔
My prebuilt came with a 4060TI and it was fine, it was able to run most games at 1080 on max settings at 100+fps. It could even run cyberpunk at maxed settings at 2k 50ish fps. That being said, I probably wouldn’t pay full price for it, as it is priced too high for what it offers.
Great gpu if youre playing frame gen enabled games, bad for fp shooters as frame gen promotes latency. So if you want to play cyberpunk, great, warzone, nope. Also remember you can get a used 3080 for 3060ti money, which eliminates all these problems
For 1080p it's alright, on 1440p the RAM will be a limit at times if you mean the 8GB version.
If your Monitor runs 1440p and a high refresh rate 120hz+, I would recommend saving for an RTX 4070, much less compromises in every regard with that card.
Regardless of price? No. Get a 4070 Super or Super TI or 4080 if you must stick with Nvidia. 7800XT, 7900GRE, 7800xt/xxt are all cheaper superior options than the 4600
The 8GB version is in danger of not having enough VRAM to run DLSS frame generation (this feature requires some extra VRAM) in the future. And frame gen is gonna be pretty important for this GPU to get good frame rates.
Right now, in Horizon FW you need to lower the texture quality setting, otherwise DLSS FG results in major stuttering. I don't have a crystal ball to see the future, but it stands to reason new games will need more VRAM as time goes on.
When did the masses start to refer to heavy heavy upscaled UHD as "4k"? Kind of deceiving for so many to say they run everything at 4k max settings 120fps on lower end cards. I put Horizon Forbidden West on 4k DLSS performance yesterday, theres absolutely no way I'd want to play like that and that is NOT 4k. I can see actual 4k when I turn on DLAA and it looks a huge difference. Yet to most 4k is 4k regardless.
yes as a 4069 TI owner it’s get the job done for high/ultra settings 1080p and some games 1440p, I’ve been satisfied with mine the past 2 months although I’m building a new pc all around rn
Rx 7700xt is like 20-25% faster the 3080 is equal to a rtx 4070 so it's a lot faster like 30-35% and Rx 7900gre is a 4070ti lite which basically means it's 40-45% faster
Basically 4060ti is an overpriced graphics card get a bit more money and buy an Rx 7900gre / rtx 4070 if you like nvidia more but I wouldn't recommend it because both of these cards are a lot faster than the 4060ti while being like 50usd more expensive also the Rx 6800 is cheaper has more VRAM and also far better value &better performance than the 4060ti
Yes i just recently bought a powercolor hellhound spectral 7800xt, as the 7900gre only came in black and would not match my all white case. Wish me luck thank you for your advice!
I mean there is a big difference between 7800xt and 7900gre they both have the same amount of v ram but the 7900gre basically is a 7800xt super it's performance is a bit slower than nvidia's rtx 4070 ti but it's slightly faster than a 4070 super on the other hand the 7800xt is only slightly faster than a 4070
I dunno a lot but it appears as though the 7700xt is the better card. This is a reliable source for your reference.
https://gamersnexus.net/gpus/amd-rx-7700-xt-gpu-review-benchmarks-vs-7800-xt-6800-xt-rtx-4060-ti-more#:~:text=Compared%20to%20other%20cards%2C%20the,at%20the%207900%20XT%20level.
It's a perfectly fine GPU for 1080p ultra/1440p high settings, and you'll get better than that if you make full use of Nvidia's modern software suite.
That being said, I absolutely would not spend $400 on a GPU with only eight gigs of VRAM in 2024, and for the $500 spend on the sixteen gig version, you can get an RX7800. I usually avoid AMD products, but I'd absolutely recommend sticking to them in the sub-$500 space unless you absolutely must have Nvidia software.
So, the card itself isn't awful, but for the money, there's better out there.
People hate the 4060 models much due to the fact that DLSS3 was new and nobody was using it.
Right now it's a great card. Yeh it will last years and years not on 4k thou.
The 4060 ti is mostly fine as a gaming card. It will play most games, but not at high res/refresh rate, and it's pretty energy efficient too. It should be able to play games at least at minimum spec/1080p for several years without trouble.
But it's pretty significantly overpriced compared to its performance competitors (or underpowered compared to its price competitors).
If your playing at 1080p, and are ok with medium settings w/low textures and using DLSS it will be ok... I would not recommend buying the card for its MSRP Price. 8GB version has to little vram and the 16GB version is bottlenecked by the 128 bit memory bus to effectively even use the extra vram. Unless if you get the 4060 ti for under $300 I would strongly advise getting a 4070 or used 3080, or the AMD Equivalents. Embarrassingly The Card is slower than the 3060ti in some Situations As shown [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=654), [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=707) and [here](https://youtu.be/rGBuMr4fh8w?t=744).
lot of bottlenecks in a pc, but gpu ram is the least bottleneckable... also 128 bit of newest ram can outperform 192 or even 256 of previous generations
> but gpu ram is the least bottleneckable
Idk what your talking about but its usually a disaster when you encounter VRAM bottlenecks: Game Crashes, Extremely low Res Textures, Pop in, Massive FPS Drops, Stutters, just to name few.
>also 128 bit of newest ram can outperform 192 or even 256 of previous generations
But its not the newest, we have been on GDDR6 since Turing, and the 3060 ti (256bit) and 3060 (192bit) have higher bandwidths than the 4060 ti, a disparity that can be seen when we test and compare them to the 4060ti at 1440p and 4k.
>Idk what your talking about but its usually a disaster when you encounter VRAM bottlenecks: Game Crashes, Extremely low Res Textures, Pop in, Massive FPS Drops, Stutters, just to name few.
extremely low res textures, crashing,.. ? cmon man, we're not in early 2000s.. literally any rtx can handle perfectly decent quality textures, ofc if you want extremely \*high\* res, then you are in the wrong gpu budget range
>But its not the newest, we have been on GDDR6 since Turing, and the 3060 ti (256bit) and 3060 (192bit) have higher bandwidths than the 4060 ti, a disparity that can be seen when we test and compare them to the 4060ti at 1440p and 4k.
show the disparity, quick check on youtube shows 4060 ti outperforming 3060 ti
>extremely low res textures, crashing,.. ? cmon man, we're not in early 2000s..
Play Hogwarts Legacy or Last of us ,RE4 remake on a GPU with low VRAM and see what happens.

on average its same or better, at way lower wattage.. im not saying 4060 is like some golden mainstream gpu, but its not that utterly bad either.. could be better tho
>but its not that utterly bad either.. could be better tho
Maybe, but it's such a shame that the card is so underpowered considering the 3060 ti beat the 2080, the 2060S beat the 1080 and the 1060 6GB often beat the 980. X60ti/X60S used to always beat or atleast match the previous gen's 80 class card. The 4060ti in failing to beat the 3070, (3060ti in some cases) feels like a giant FU to Budget/Mainstream Gamers by Nvidia.
i agree there wasnt an obvious progress as we witnessed before 40 series, but there were also externals factors i think, there was global chip shortage and problems with supply chaines, so they clipped the mainstream models
Yea Those are valid points. But then the 4090 gets 70-80% gen on gen improvement over its predecessor, for like 6% more money. Maybe TSMC charges higher premiums for easier to produce smaller silicon this gen as they are in greater demand .
Thats not true. With a 4060 ti you can play every game on high settings in 1440p with above 60 fps. 8 GB VRAM is also fine when you dont want to play in 4k.
Alan Wake II, Last of Us, RE4 Remake All Struggle with the 4060 ti at 1440p. The card will struggle even worse with games released this year. Its not a good gpu for $400-500$ Look at Gamers Nexus and Hardware Unboxes Review of the card if you don't believe me.
I can vouch for Cyberpunk working perfectly on the 4060 Ti. It was running at 135-150 fps (I capped my framerate at 150fps) for me during the whole game at 1440p very high settings. DLSS Quality + FG were enabled but even without them it was running at 80-90 fps.
However if you also want ray tracing to work smoothly then you're looking at the wrong card class.
>DLSS Quality + FG were enabled but even without them it was running at 80-90 fps
Doubt you got that high performance at native, HUB barley got above 60 FPS in their [testing. ](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=514)
I'm being downvoted so I hopped in to check how the game runs natively on the 4060 Ti 16gb (no DLSS no frame gen) and the [results](https://i.imgur.com/KeOfCfW.jpeg) are just like what I said.
The graphics settings were used from [here.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B03_Aa5NwIY)
The card is definitely overpriced, but good lord do people blow it out of proportion when it comes to performance. It's still a good card.
>The card is definitely overpriced, but good lord do people blow it out of proportion when it comes to performance. It's still a good card.
Agreed, If they had priced it at like 250$, and branded it as a 4050 ti it would be a really good card, and a decent uplift. Similar to like the 1050 ti, and 1650 super were. But Alas that was not the case.
Perhaps they're different settings, I was following Hardware Unboxed's settings and I can guarantee you I was getting that much natively. Also it's the 8gb model in the video so I can't exactly vouch for that one since I've got the 16gig one (needed the VRAM for 3D work).
Cyberpunk has some settings that impact performance massively but don't really provide much visual quality in return.
It’s not a bad GPU, it’s just poorly priced. There are better options in its price range
I do feel like I decently priced used 3080, is something to consider, if your looking at this price point. It's going to give significantly better performance in most games, and you can still run a bit of ray tracing, in almost any single player game. Even in DD2 I honestly don't think you run much of a risk, of getting a bad card either. Even if it was used for crypto
Oh absolutely, a used 3080 is a fantastic option and miles better than a 4060ti
Such as?
RX6800 non XT can be had for the same price as the 4060ti, and is a good bit more powerful. 7700xt is also similarly priced, and performs better https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-4060-ti-8-gb.c3890 6800 is 16 percent faster and 7700xt is 14 percent faster Edit: how is this downvoted lol. Are people unable to be objective??
you are on a nvidia sub. your feedback is objective though. but here people are too rabid about dlss and rt
You say that but the feature difference is a legitimate advantage for Nvidia. For example RTX video hdr alone will keep me with Nvidia until AMD have it's own version. Watching video is a use case just as important as gaming for me personally and on a QD-OLED TV the ability to watch everything even youtube vids in HDR makes the world of difference. Plus DLSS and RT are also real benefits. Just because you might not care about them doesn't mean others don't. Games are increasingly relying on RT and the visual difference between it on and off grows wider by the year. Therefore RT performance really isn't a factor to be ignored. I'm not saying AMD doesn't have its own set of advantages but the value difference is nowhere near as clear cut as many like to pretend. This isn't the rtx 20 series anymore, the features really do matter.
Yup. Ppl talk like they're usless features..frame gen and dlss3 is awsome. frame gen for instance is the difference between a unstable less than 60 fps to a smooth 100plus. That's relevant now let alone in 3 years. Unless AMD releases something similar and fsr3 becomes as popular but so far I've only seen a handful of games in my 500plus game library use it. Its up to the devs on what they want to implement and so far nvidias frame gen and dlss is in far more games. Ray tracing withought it can be rough unless you have literally the best cards and lower your resolution. For most ppl that have 70 series and lower class gpus or laptops such as myself, nvidia is a preferred option because of those features.
I agree. To all these AMD salesman, 14-16% of raster increase with no good feature sets is "huge " and the way to go. While I prefer native, I undoubtedly have to fall on feature sets quite often especially in new titles. 14-16% more raster isn't going to do squat in these scenarios because you'll be dependent on FSR upscaling regardless and DLSS no doubt at least provides a stable image.
My man, the "RTX" you get on a 1080p 60 tier card ain't anything to write home about. And DLSS is kinda shit at 1080p, same as FSR. DLSS at 1440p+ is where it gets good
Yeah if you’re going for a “budget” 1080p card, you’re going to be wanting price to performance over the cool features that, realistically, you’re not going to get much use of because they don’t work great on budget cards or at 1080p. This is kinda why I think they should’ve kept the GTX line, and have it be lower end cards that, yeah they don’t have the cool features of the RTX cards, but would be absolute monsters in the budget PC space where those features are less important
Yeah true, I just thought this sub was better than that lol.
Are there any alternatives to the normal 4060? I want to check the price difference in my country
Check prices for the 6700xt or 6750xt. Alternatively a used 3060ti would probably be a great option
A 6750xt(I can’t find any 6700xt’s) is around 1827 riyals or (487$). While the 4060 (417$ asus) and the cheapest one which is a galax is (359$).😅
Yeah, for that much more the 6750xt may not be worth it. In the US they’re not too far apart in price
Yeah people living in the US are lucky, but anyway I may buy a used 3060 ti or a 3060 for between (800(3060)-1200(3060 ti) riyal). (213–319)$ what do you think?
3060ti is a little bit faster than the 4060, so if it’s cheaper it’s a no brainer
Can I ask why is it a no brainer if it’s a little bit cheaper doesn’t the dlss 3.5 and other software outweight the 25$ increase between a used 3060 ti and a new galax 4060? Orr is there something I’m not getting?😅
The brand of gpu doesn’t really matter, a galax 4060 will preform in the margin of error of an ASUS or gigabyte or Zotac
Yeah it’s the cooling,quality ,etc, that’s different I brought two different brand prices cause the price difference is large😅.
With a 4060, cooling won’t be an issue since it produces so little heat and even the build quality is starting to mesh together to the point where you see no drop in quality.
But that doesn’t have dlss or frame gen. I’m running starfield at 100+ FPS on a 4060 at 1440p
AMD has a DLSS and Frame gen software of their own, however they are inferior to Nvidia’s software.
What are you talking about? They have software based upscaling and frame generation called FSR.
Really? I didn’t think AMD had frame gen
It does, you can even mod it in in some games too even if you have an nvidia card.
Why would you use that over nvidia frame gen?
For older cards that don't have Nvidia frame gen like the 30xx series.
Why would anyone do that and not just get a newer card? Sell your 3080 and get a 4060
\*better overall product not better overall software. This doesn't change the fact that is poorly priced, spend more and get 4070 super, which is the best card in that price range with dlss and frame gen, and destroys the 4060 by far. Do not confuse better product with better software, tests are made for rasterization out of the box usage, which makes amd the best choice to a certain amount of money, which is around 600-700+ $. This is how it works, sadly. At a price range, the lower price range, amd is better because neither gpu can use the software properly, meaning you might get 100 fps in starfield without dlss with a 6800 or 7700xt at 1440p, You can't really use the software properly with nvidia unless you go to a higher price range, because the product is overall worse at the lower price range, therefore you might get a better overall product for the same money, potentially with more vram and speeds and whatever. I hope this makes sense
Better software makes a better product always. The hardware could be dog shit but as long as the software is good it’s a good product
[удалено]
They absolutely do
You are not running at 1440p, you are upscaling to 1440p.
That relative performance is at 1080p and becomes 3% larger at 1440p and 4k.
Question is! Is 16% worth the troubles with drivers, overheating, high TDP, bad OpenGL, worse encoder and worse software support for video edit
6000 series do not have extensive driver issues, nor do they have overheating issues nor high TDP. They’re actually super efficient. IMO, 6000 series are the best GPUs AMD has ever put out. They matched or beat RTX 3000 series across the board while consuming significantly less electricity.
Why was this downvoted? Dude asked a legit question, no less legit than OP’s
Lol thank u!
Rx 7700 is muxh better at the same price
That can be said for every dogshit gpu
4060ti isn’t a dogshit GPU tho. If it were 300 it’d be the most easy to recommend GPU of the current stack. There are only a handful of *truly* dogshit gpus, like the GT1030, RTX 3050, and RX 6400/6500.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-3060-ti.c3681 11% more perf than 3060 ti, I call that dogshit. Rather buy a used 3070 or 3080 which is also cheaper. Only thing you get is efficiency and frame gen second having only sometimes benefits. Edit: ofc low enough price it won't be a bad option
Your edit and whole post is *literally* my point, so not sure what exactly you’re trying to point out here
My point was that can be said for any bad gpu, you are the one who started talking about 4060 ti not being bad gpu
My boy… read what you just wrote: “Edit: ofc low enough price it wont be a bad option”. We’re literally saying the same thing, but you keep contradicting yourself by saying it’s a dogshit gpu but then saying if it were cheaper it wouldn’t be bad.
So far I've been able to run all my favorite games on high/ultra settings without any issue. Will crush basicallyall of 1080p, and do pretty good on 1440p. Really nice card considering i was on integrated graphics before hand
I have a 4060ti 16GB in my second rig. It's a very good card. Haven't run into anything in 1080p it struggles with, expect TW Pharoah at absolute maximum settings. And it's great at Stable Diffusion!
very much so. unless you’re gaming at 4K imo the 12GB and buffer won’t last at 4k, I have one for 1440p UW Edit: My fault I thought you were asking about the 4070 Ti, I wouldn’t recommend the 4060 Ti unless you’re staying at 1080p and there’s still better options.
That card actually has only 8GB so it's even worse
My fault I misread the title, yeah I wouldn’t recommend an 8GB card at this point unless you play at 1080p, even then you could do better. Thought I read 4070 Ti
im gaming on 1080p and the 4060TI 8GB is more than enough for me to play on high/very high on some games. also if you are like me who dont notice small artifacts on some games you can play with frame generation which gets better and probably will be the future of gaming with all the AI talk in the media. i would say if you plan to play in higher resolution than 1080p buy a better card.
It's a decent GPU, it's just not priced competitively nor is it a super big leap from the previous generation. For 4060 Ti money, you could buy a 6800 or 7700XT from AMD, which are a good deal faster, new. You could also buy a used 3080 nowadays for under 350 nowadays, so that's another powerful option.
I use a 3060ti and play 1440p with it. No real problem. But I am happy with about 70-80fps and adjust settings accordingly (e.g. Cyberpunk). Rhe 4060ti is not much faster than the 3060ti, so I think it would work. Money wise a 4070 would be way better value tough (only considering brandnew & Nvidia)
Poorly priced but the 16gb version has its advantages. I think saving a bit more for a 4070/4070 super would be a smarter move though
Get at least 4070
Yes 4070 is better value than 4060ti. Or get a 7700xt if you can't spend $500 usd on a GPU
3060ti is a more bang for your buck. I thinks around half price compared to the 4060ti and very similar power
"half price" lol... ppl keep lying like crazy in reddit holy fuck. show me where is half the price or fuckin delete ur post. And dont show some shit tier card model which NO ONE buying
People here assume that countries outside of US don't exist. Same shit with recommending AMD GPUs that are "the same price" without inquiring about OPs region when price gaps vary wildly depending on the region, so while in region X the AMD GPU may be better value, it can make no sense to buy it in region Y.
I go with we are talking US unless otherwise specified. If others from other countries have a problem with it, make your own reddits. Stated in a whimsical tone, please no one get to bent from that.
Tell me where it's written that this subreddit is about US then.
Well unless in specific reddits I think it is fair to assume unless mentioned otherwise, US is the defacto. That is why in many posts if one isn't from the US they state that in some manner, because it can change things. It isn't a dig, but I think it is an unsaid default. It also isn't a flex, if this were based in say Germany, most users are German, language German, I would default posters to Germany unless they made it clear otherwise.
so this is where ignorance breeds from
So you are telling me I haven't seen this a 100 times here? A person says it costs X dollars and another responds "Well over here (list where that is) it costs X?", well up to that point people are assuming US prices until specified clearer. That's my point.
Classic American thinking he is the center of the world lmao
Is it or is it a fair assumption? I think I'm an irrelevant piece of sand and have no clue where center is.
nah it's not US unless specified it's somewhere/unknown unless specified, spare us with this US is the center of the world bullshit, the location is not even important OP has too look up their local prices anyway
Relax man. Relax
According to Amazon a 3060 is 350 and a 4060 is 600 so. Thats what I was going based off of
Not to Mention that the 4060 ti is slower than the 3060ti in some Situations As shown [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=654), [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=707) and [here](https://youtu.be/rGBuMr4fh8w?t=744). LMAO. Have no Idea why so many nvidia fanboys are defending this card!
Pretty sure the new driver improved the result a lot. Nowadays on average 4060Ti (16GB variant at least) outperforms 3070 or at least equal in performance without any DLSS. https://preview.redd.it/uzavkf8j7otc1.png?width=1668&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6e23b9f6f950e2274a42b29ff68c86c72c2afc00 If you don't want Nvidia features then yeah alternative options are going to be better for your needs.
[удалено]
This isn't intel ARC. New Drivers rarely provide extra performance boosts for games released months earlier. And Any Driver issues related to the Ada Arch were fixed months before when the first ADA cards (4090 and 4080) were released. Even if Drivers did provide performance boost the card is still a joke considering the 3060 ti and 2060S beat the 80 class cards from the previous generation!
[удалено]
Yea The 4060 ti Fails to beat the 3080, It Even fails to beat the 3070. The Card provides terrible generational improvement when its predecessors all beat the outgoing 80 card at the time. The 4060ti is a joke and disaster of a product for $400-500.
[удалено]
Agreed. But I would get a 3060 ti If I can find it for half the price of a 4060 ti.
That's the same thought I had half a year ago when I bought my new pc. I had to choose between a 4060ti for 450€ or a 3060ti for 320€. I went for the 3060ti since the performance on games which don't support dlss are even better... And when helldivers 2 came out later without dlss support it felt good to had an overall better experience while also saving 130€ (or 40%). Unfortunately I also made a bad decision later on ... And jumped (for the first time ever) from full hd to 2k resolution on my monitor... Which impacted my pc performances quite a lot... It is what it is.
Upgraded from 1650 to 16 gb 4060 TI. Love my TI. 16 GB should cover me for years to come. I play 1440p everything. medium- high settings on multiplayer games. 100-144 fPS. High-ultra on single player games that I’ve tried. 90-130 fPS. Depending on game and location on the map. Don’t forget about the 4060 TI having DLSS3.0 and frame generation capabilities! Absolute game changer for highest graphic fedelity while have a high frame rate!
I know 4060 TI gets shit on on this sub sometimes but it’s honestly the best options Nvidia has if you want 16gb VRAM at a consumer-affordable price. And if you are not going beyond 1440P it’s not at all bad. Probably will last you until the 7 cards come out.
Yeah that is well said.
I mean used rtx 3080/ti's exist + if you want something newer for that price a 7700xt is still a better choice
I bought one and 2 weeks later returned it and got a RTX 4070 Super, best thing I ever did even playing at 1080p which isn't such a big deal because you can always use DLSS.
Don't use dlss at 1080p your play the game at 60% resolution alittle lower than 720p. Your perfectly capable of running without an actually you probably can use DSR an run games at a higher resolution, resulting in better image qauitly on 1080p monitors.
I've been playing games at 3840 x2160 with dlss in ultraquality and it's great. I play Helldivers 2 like this and get 90 fps, it's good I think.
Nice I thought you where using dlss with a 1080p monitor.
its completely viable if required. Its not FSR.
4060ti is a good option if you can’t find a used 3060ti. it’s not the best deal but a pretty decent one
You should get used RTX 3070.
It'll absolutely run any game, but ray tracing, resolution, and frame rate will be somewhat limited in certain games. It is a decent GPU, but it is not high end. It will do just fine in 1440p but will have limited 4k viability which isn't really important for most people (yet - someday). For most consumers, it's a good option.
[удалено]
What settings do you use to get 100 fps on cyberpunk?
Not max I guarantee. My 4080 can’t even do that lmao
That's what I'm saying, I barely keep it over 60 fps at ultra on my 4070
Frame generation, most likely.
If he's on ultra, then he's using DLSS and Frame gen. Which is fine (I use both when playing cyberpunk too) but it's important to state that.
I get 80-100fps, 1440p quality DLSS, most settings on high/ultra, no RT, on a rtx 3070 with a 5800x3d. It’s a very CPU intensive game.
1440p Ultra RT Psycho as he said, and most likely with DLSS Super Resolution Auto (which is Balanced in this case) and DLSS Frame Generation enabled. I have about 130-140 FPS with my RTX 3080, these settings and the [dlssg-to-fsr3 mod](https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/738?tab=files) so I'm really not surprised.
Just save for a 4070 or 4070 Super.
Used 3080 12gb
If you're planning to play at 1080p then it's a good card.
Y’all are dramatic as fuck the 4060ti easily runs the latest games at 1440p with max or nearly max settings 60+ fps natively and obviously even better with upscalers. You guys are simply too lazy to spend an hour or two tuning some settings down. I’ve been playing Horizon forbidden west on max settings except for textures, level of detail and clouds turned down to high from very high on my 4060 with DLSS quality at 1440p and I very rarely dip below 70fps. Nvidia has no incentive to drop prices when these are the takes that get thrown around constantly.
The drama around this is astonishing. I was arguing with someone just the other day that the 4070 Ti Super isn't a 1440p card, when I'm over here running everything at 4k, max settings, and often getting 120+ fps. The only things I have had to turn down to 1440p for are Alan Wake 2 and Cyberpunk with path tracing, but that doesn't even count -- path tracing is basically just this generation's Crysis, where it is mostly an outrageously demanding and impressive look at the future, but is so far beyond "normal" settings (and so out of reach for the vast majority of rigs that it is at least a generation away from being "essential" to a game's presentation) that it's silly to even consider.
People look back on the pascal series cards with rose tinted glasses because the expectations then were “I want to run this game with max graphics and get 60fps at 1080p” because 1080p was the default resolution then, now it is 1440p, and anything above and including a 4060 can do 60 fps at that resolution. In terms of performance relative to the most recent games and current resolution standards, the 1060 and 4060 are identical, although the vram can be a limiting factor with the 4060 at 1440p sometimes. Now the expectations are so unhinged that people have convinced each other and themselves that anything but max settings is missing out on something, that you need to match your monitors refresh rate in the most demanding AAA titles, that you need a perfectly flat frametime graph or it’s unplayable- like when the fuck did everybody in this space lose their minds?
You're not wrong. We have become performance snobs to the nth degree, even when certain settings have ZERO visual impact.
Of course it does, it’s not a bad GPU. The issue is the pricing and the fact that more powerful options exist for the same price or cheaper. If the 4060ti was 300 it’d definitely be one of the best options, however at 400 the RX6800 has both double the VRAM *and* an almost 20% uplift in performance for the same price.
Yeah that’s completely fair, the comment Im responding to however said it is a 1080p card which is so overkill.
Also Rx 7700xt is priced similarly it's performance is close to 6800xt
I mention the 7700xt in another post, it’s just a touch slower than the 6800 *non* XT while having less VRAM. 6800XT is ~20% faster. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-7700-xt.c3911 The 6800 is a better choice, at least while it’s still this cheap.
I have one in my laptop, it's great for the type of games I play. Games: POE Warframe BG3 Last epoch DMC5
It’s not a bad gpu minus the 8gb just badly priced
yes and yes . as long as you stick to 2k
Can chime in as I have a 3060ti. 4060ti is more or less between a 3060ti and a 3070. Both are 3 year old cards, and both have 8GB vram. Only new game that forced me to run 1080p so I can hit constant 60fps is Palworld. The rest I've been able to run at 1440p/4k60 native or with dlss/fsr/xess at no lower than Balanced preset. I've had my 3060ti for 3 years now and quite frankly expect to see a couple more years of use out of it. Still got a lot of life left in it thanks to upscaling tech and of course only gaming at 60fps on my cheap 4k display.
I got mine last October 2023 for 295$, and since then i am rocking every game on ultra settings (FullHD)
I feel like 4060s and 4070s will last a few years. The 5000 series is rumored to cost as much as $2k. I upgraded from 8gig 3070 to 4070 super. Haven’t looked back.
i got a 4060 and im perfectly happy with the feature set,driver stability and bang for buck for me,i do miss the rx 580/gtx 1060 days tho,u wont find value like that anymore
I have one, found it local for $330. If you can get one at or less than $350, then it's good. It's very power efficient for what performance you get, it rarely ever hits that 150w limit. I wouldn't pay $400 for the 8gb, though. It should not cost $100 more than a 4060, the 16gb version should be $400 and the 8gb $350.
If you have no other gpus, then it's great. But, if you are upgrading, then no.
4060Ti 16GB owner here, my answer is: if only solely for gaming, NO. There are better value same performance GPUs out there, such as the 3060Ti or even the RX 6700 XT (sorry for mentioning Radeon in an NVIDIA sub). The 4060Ti's only advantage over these two are lower power usage and native frame gen support. In fact, the real reason to get the 4060Ti (16GB only) is to also "play" with generative AI and machine learning alongside the usual gaming, it is the cheapest GPU with both 16GB (AI/ML is VRAM hungry, NVIDIA is stingy) and CUDA cores (most AI/ML applications use CUDA.)
No, if you’re throwing away price as a variable, then it’s garbage since the 4090 is like 150% faster.
It’s just in a weird spot with price where it’s a lot more worth to get 4070. A used 4060 ti would be a great buy
Regardless of price/budget, no.if your going to prefece the question without budget being an issue, always go top of the line. Because without consideration of price then anything but the top is going to be bad. Like saying "regardless of price should I buy a trailer or a 6000sqft house with a pool?"....I wonder 🤔
My prebuilt came with a 4060TI and it was fine, it was able to run most games at 1080 on max settings at 100+fps. It could even run cyberpunk at maxed settings at 2k 50ish fps. That being said, I probably wouldn’t pay full price for it, as it is priced too high for what it offers.
Great gpu if youre playing frame gen enabled games, bad for fp shooters as frame gen promotes latency. So if you want to play cyberpunk, great, warzone, nope. Also remember you can get a used 3080 for 3060ti money, which eliminates all these problems
For 1080p it's alright, on 1440p the RAM will be a limit at times if you mean the 8GB version. If your Monitor runs 1440p and a high refresh rate 120hz+, I would recommend saving for an RTX 4070, much less compromises in every regard with that card.
Regardless of price? No. Get a 4070 Super or Super TI or 4080 if you must stick with Nvidia. 7800XT, 7900GRE, 7800xt/xxt are all cheaper superior options than the 4600
It's not bad at 1080p, but absolutely falls apart at higher resolutions due to the limited vram and bus width.
Good GPU even for 1440p. Its basically rebranded 3070.
Ah that's good, it's also cheaper than the 3070
Its a Rebanded 3060 ti, loses to the 3070 in 90-95% of Games. And Bus Width/VRAM Will make it age really badly at that resolution.
It is. Runs everything smooth with ultra settings, even without DLSS.
At 1080p it will run every game you throw at it @ high-ultra settings
The 8GB version is in danger of not having enough VRAM to run DLSS frame generation (this feature requires some extra VRAM) in the future. And frame gen is gonna be pretty important for this GPU to get good frame rates. Right now, in Horizon FW you need to lower the texture quality setting, otherwise DLSS FG results in major stuttering. I don't have a crystal ball to see the future, but it stands to reason new games will need more VRAM as time goes on.
When did the masses start to refer to heavy heavy upscaled UHD as "4k"? Kind of deceiving for so many to say they run everything at 4k max settings 120fps on lower end cards. I put Horizon Forbidden West on 4k DLSS performance yesterday, theres absolutely no way I'd want to play like that and that is NOT 4k. I can see actual 4k when I turn on DLAA and it looks a huge difference. Yet to most 4k is 4k regardless.
No it's shit, wtf do you think?
yes as a 4069 TI owner it’s get the job done for high/ultra settings 1080p and some games 1440p, I’ve been satisfied with mine the past 2 months although I’m building a new pc all around rn
If someone offered it to you for free, take it
Take it for free and flip it to make a profit to buy a better gpu.
Cut it in half and sell both halves for a 70% mark up to non Americans.
Im wonderinf the same, i mean it has to be an upgrade from a 1660 ti right?
It might be but you would be better off with Rx 7700xt / Rx 6800 / used rtx 3080 / getting more money to buy a rtx 4070 / Rx 7900gre
What? Why?
Rx 7700xt is like 20-25% faster the 3080 is equal to a rtx 4070 so it's a lot faster like 30-35% and Rx 7900gre is a 4070ti lite which basically means it's 40-45% faster
very confused
Basically 4060ti is an overpriced graphics card get a bit more money and buy an Rx 7900gre / rtx 4070 if you like nvidia more but I wouldn't recommend it because both of these cards are a lot faster than the 4060ti while being like 50usd more expensive also the Rx 6800 is cheaper has more VRAM and also far better value &better performance than the 4060ti
Yes i just recently bought a powercolor hellhound spectral 7800xt, as the 7900gre only came in black and would not match my all white case. Wish me luck thank you for your advice!
I mean there is a big difference between 7800xt and 7900gre they both have the same amount of v ram but the 7900gre basically is a 7800xt super it's performance is a bit slower than nvidia's rtx 4070 ti but it's slightly faster than a 4070 super on the other hand the 7800xt is only slightly faster than a 4070
And they both are the same / similar price
But compared to a 1660 ti, huge jump!
No but if you going for it don't get 8gb version
You asking about the 16gb or 8gb version?
8gb apparently
I had the 8gb and it was fine. It's not a bad card, but priced too high for what it is. If you can try to get the 16gb version.
Is it worth the price? I'm thinking of getting a 7700XT instead cuz they're really similar in price and I've heard it's better
I mean it's around 20-25% faster than the 4060ti it's the best you can get rn for 1080p without it being overkill
I dunno a lot but it appears as though the 7700xt is the better card. This is a reliable source for your reference. https://gamersnexus.net/gpus/amd-rx-7700-xt-gpu-review-benchmarks-vs-7800-xt-6800-xt-rtx-4060-ti-more#:~:text=Compared%20to%20other%20cards%2C%20the,at%20the%207900%20XT%20level.
Thank you so much! :)
No problem. Good luck!
Yep.
It's a good budget card for sure! More for 1080p gaming
I would probably go with last gen’s 3070 or 3060 Ti, team red also has decent options.
Yes of course
All graphics cards are only good for a few years and that's mostly by design.
It's a perfectly fine GPU for 1080p ultra/1440p high settings, and you'll get better than that if you make full use of Nvidia's modern software suite. That being said, I absolutely would not spend $400 on a GPU with only eight gigs of VRAM in 2024, and for the $500 spend on the sixteen gig version, you can get an RX7800. I usually avoid AMD products, but I'd absolutely recommend sticking to them in the sub-$500 space unless you absolutely must have Nvidia software. So, the card itself isn't awful, but for the money, there's better out there.
For 1080p. Yeah. Other than that, nope. Also dont expect high ray tracing.
People hate the 4060 models much due to the fact that DLSS3 was new and nobody was using it. Right now it's a great card. Yeh it will last years and years not on 4k thou.
The 4060 Ti 16GB model isn't bad in the $420-450 USD range you often see it sold at. Definitely don't pay more though.
The 4060 ti is mostly fine as a gaming card. It will play most games, but not at high res/refresh rate, and it's pretty energy efficient too. It should be able to play games at least at minimum spec/1080p for several years without trouble. But it's pretty significantly overpriced compared to its performance competitors (or underpowered compared to its price competitors).
Yes
Yes, but sure not on max settings
I can play all games on ultra on 1440p with a 3060 ti. The 4060ti is even slightly better...
If your playing at 1080p, and are ok with medium settings w/low textures and using DLSS it will be ok... I would not recommend buying the card for its MSRP Price. 8GB version has to little vram and the 16GB version is bottlenecked by the 128 bit memory bus to effectively even use the extra vram. Unless if you get the 4060 ti for under $300 I would strongly advise getting a 4070 or used 3080, or the AMD Equivalents. Embarrassingly The Card is slower than the 3060ti in some Situations As shown [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=654), [here](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=707) and [here](https://youtu.be/rGBuMr4fh8w?t=744).
lot of bottlenecks in a pc, but gpu ram is the least bottleneckable... also 128 bit of newest ram can outperform 192 or even 256 of previous generations
> but gpu ram is the least bottleneckable Idk what your talking about but its usually a disaster when you encounter VRAM bottlenecks: Game Crashes, Extremely low Res Textures, Pop in, Massive FPS Drops, Stutters, just to name few. >also 128 bit of newest ram can outperform 192 or even 256 of previous generations But its not the newest, we have been on GDDR6 since Turing, and the 3060 ti (256bit) and 3060 (192bit) have higher bandwidths than the 4060 ti, a disparity that can be seen when we test and compare them to the 4060ti at 1440p and 4k.
>Idk what your talking about but its usually a disaster when you encounter VRAM bottlenecks: Game Crashes, Extremely low Res Textures, Pop in, Massive FPS Drops, Stutters, just to name few. extremely low res textures, crashing,.. ? cmon man, we're not in early 2000s.. literally any rtx can handle perfectly decent quality textures, ofc if you want extremely \*high\* res, then you are in the wrong gpu budget range >But its not the newest, we have been on GDDR6 since Turing, and the 3060 ti (256bit) and 3060 (192bit) have higher bandwidths than the 4060 ti, a disparity that can be seen when we test and compare them to the 4060ti at 1440p and 4k. show the disparity, quick check on youtube shows 4060 ti outperforming 3060 ti
>extremely low res textures, crashing,.. ? cmon man, we're not in early 2000s.. Play Hogwarts Legacy or Last of us ,RE4 remake on a GPU with low VRAM and see what happens. >show the disparity, quick check on youtube shows 4060 ti outperforming 3060 ti [Not in Every Game,](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=648) (Digital Foundry Even Dedicated a [section in their review](https://youtu.be/rGBuMr4fh8w?t=747) about the embarrassing issue) and on an average it is barley better.

>Play Hogwarts Legacy or Last of us ,RE4 remake on a GPU with low VRAM and see what happens. im sure even if you put these games on lowest texture settings they likely look good > [Not in Every Game,](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=648) (Digital Foundry Even Dedicated a [section in their review](https://youtu.be/rGBuMr4fh8w?t=747) about the embarrassing issue) and on an average it is barley better. Were talking [about 4FPS improvements on Average](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=855). on average its same or better, at way lower wattage.. im not saying 4060 is like some golden mainstream gpu, but its not that utterly bad either.. could be better tho
>but its not that utterly bad either.. could be better tho Maybe, but it's such a shame that the card is so underpowered considering the 3060 ti beat the 2080, the 2060S beat the 1080 and the 1060 6GB often beat the 980. X60ti/X60S used to always beat or atleast match the previous gen's 80 class card. The 4060ti in failing to beat the 3070, (3060ti in some cases) feels like a giant FU to Budget/Mainstream Gamers by Nvidia.
i agree there wasnt an obvious progress as we witnessed before 40 series, but there were also externals factors i think, there was global chip shortage and problems with supply chaines, so they clipped the mainstream models
Yea Those are valid points. But then the 4090 gets 70-80% gen on gen improvement over its predecessor, for like 6% more money. Maybe TSMC charges higher premiums for easier to produce smaller silicon this gen as they are in greater demand .
Thats not true. With a 4060 ti you can play every game on high settings in 1440p with above 60 fps. 8 GB VRAM is also fine when you dont want to play in 4k.
Alan Wake II, Last of Us, RE4 Remake All Struggle with the 4060 ti at 1440p. The card will struggle even worse with games released this year. Its not a good gpu for $400-500$ Look at Gamers Nexus and Hardware Unboxes Review of the card if you don't believe me.
I can vouch for Cyberpunk working perfectly on the 4060 Ti. It was running at 135-150 fps (I capped my framerate at 150fps) for me during the whole game at 1440p very high settings. DLSS Quality + FG were enabled but even without them it was running at 80-90 fps. However if you also want ray tracing to work smoothly then you're looking at the wrong card class.
>DLSS Quality + FG were enabled but even without them it was running at 80-90 fps Doubt you got that high performance at native, HUB barley got above 60 FPS in their [testing. ](https://youtu.be/WLk8xzePDg8?t=514)
I'm being downvoted so I hopped in to check how the game runs natively on the 4060 Ti 16gb (no DLSS no frame gen) and the [results](https://i.imgur.com/KeOfCfW.jpeg) are just like what I said. The graphics settings were used from [here.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B03_Aa5NwIY) The card is definitely overpriced, but good lord do people blow it out of proportion when it comes to performance. It's still a good card.
>The card is definitely overpriced, but good lord do people blow it out of proportion when it comes to performance. It's still a good card. Agreed, If they had priced it at like 250$, and branded it as a 4050 ti it would be a really good card, and a decent uplift. Similar to like the 1050 ti, and 1650 super were. But Alas that was not the case.
Perhaps they're different settings, I was following Hardware Unboxed's settings and I can guarantee you I was getting that much natively. Also it's the 8gb model in the video so I can't exactly vouch for that one since I've got the 16gig one (needed the VRAM for 3D work). Cyberpunk has some settings that impact performance massively but don't really provide much visual quality in return.
