Is an rtx 3060 worth it?

I have to buy a new graphics card for my PC (the current Asus rog strix vega 64) and the rtx 3060 is the card worth upgrading from my Vega 64? Apart from the price?

I mostly play Valorant or Minecraft or Battlefield.

Co

The card will do around 30-50% more… So where there were 50fps before it is around 75

Le

Thank you very helpful 🙏🙏

Ed

If you're playing at 1080p, it's not worth it. A 3060 only makes sense if you go to wqhd and play much more demanding titles.

Especially since, as you already said, the price is currently complete rubbish

Le

Get a cheap one for 430 euro new and I plan to switch to WQHD but thanks for the tip

Co

Oh no, command back, that would have been a 3060ti… The normal 3060 does not do much more than the Vega… Just around 10%

Bo

The 3060 without Ti doesn't make sense at all

Ed

I'm glad you're so lucky ^^

Btw, I have a gtx 1070 and even it conjures up a good 60 frames on wqhd ultra on the monitor.

You can also hide frame trios using a monitor with gsync / adaptive or freesync. Works really well

Ed

I see differently. The ti only shows that the card is overclocked at the factory and if you know a little bit, the 3060 can be turned into a 3060ti.

Well, the RX Vega 64 is still a good card.

If something is lagging with you, then the RTX3060 might make sense:

(PassMark is currently down for me, so I use UserBenchMark for comparison)

tr

The 3060 has more VRam than is future-proof.

Yes, the actual computing power is a bit lower, but the 3060ti will probably come up against VRam limits in the coming years.

Le

If I can get the Vega 64 away for 590 euro and buy a ne rtx 3060 for 430 euro, is that good? Or what kind of other is better?

tr

, Yes.

But shouldn't sell the Vega until you've actually received the RTX3060ti.

Also note that there are currently tons of scammers, so find out more about scams.

Bo

It has more V Ram but fewer raytracing cores and fewer shader processes and is clocked lower (that's not a little lower, that's a huge castration)

And no, the 3060TI is not overclocked at the factory - it has more computing units - a major difference that you can't do away with with overclocking (and the risk of damaging the card)

This is a low budget graphics card because 12 GB Vram won't bring you anything because the card already reaches its limits before it is full

But nice that it still works to stuff cheap cards with ram and they are bought

Bo

The post and the link impressively show that a 3060 without TI is worth zero (especially with the current real prices for this scrap card)

tr

, I know that the 3060ti has more RT units.

But you talk the RTX3060 so badly, as if it were a card that can do nothing.

The 3060ti has its price correspondingly more power: https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/GeForce-RTX-3060-vs-GeForce-RTX-3060-Ti/4345vs4318

Something like ray tracing is only something experimental anyway.

You can still play a lot smoothly on a GTX1060, so the 3060 will last for 3 years if the technical progress remains the same.

I don't know how you got the idea that the RTX3060 is a bad card. This is not a cheaper card, but simply a slightly cheaper card (around 20 percent at normal prices) and 15 percent worse than the RTX3060ti.

Bo

I myself had a RTX 2070 Super for a long time and until I had a Ps5 a lot compared the RTX 3060 Non TÍ does not even have the performance mine that my RTX 2070 Super had

And by the way, the RTX 3060 has a 192Bit memory interface, according to the data sheet, which is a huge bottleneck

Ray tracing is just something experimental anyway.

With the introduction of the 3060Ti and 3070 it was basically no longer because the performance is now very good

In addition, there's the Playstation 5 and the Xbox Series consoles. Ray tracing skills in short or long you will not get past it

tr

No.

Ray tracing can still be deactivated, as it actually needs more and more power at the moment. In addition, not all graphics cards support ray tracing, so of course no ray tracing requirement can be introduced. It will probably take 5 years until something like this is done.

The RTX 2070 Super comes from a different price segment and is still slightly better, that's true.

By the way, here is a benchmark:

In RDR2 you have about 20% more average FPS with the 3060ti. So again, for example, the surcharge that you would pay without a global semiconductor shortage and the rest of the things.

That with the 192-bit memory bus may seem bad, you can see real scenarios outside of benchmarks that not much is happening after all. So the whole thing with the "huge bottleneck" is a bit big again. There may be a bottleneck, but it shouldn't be big.

Bo

Your video shows what I mean, the FPS differences are sometimes really bad

It won't get any better with upcoming games

If the 3060 would really cost what Nvidia estimates as an RRP (329 euro), it would really be a super card

Unfortunately, the real prices are different

https://www.alternate.de/Grafikkarten/RTX-3060

And at this price, the card is definitely not acceptable. The performance was already available 6 years ago with a 1080 TI

tr

, you are currently paying a lot for the 3060ti (the cheapest offer in this case is 1180 euro).

Yes, the current prices are outrageous, you should not buy a graphics card unless it costs a maximum of 20% more than the RRP (depending on the design, a little more).

Bo

It's just crazy at the moment I sold my Rtx 2070 Super for over 600 euro that much I didn't even pay when it was new… My Ps5 was so practically free xd

Le

I have it for 590 euro
