Nvidia just calling the 4050 a 4060 and calling it a day.

[siddheshsharma]

6700xt is becoming the best value card.

[boydw]

You can get a 12GB RX 6700 XT now for the same price you paid for the Zotac RTX 4060 - I wonder how that stacks up performance wise?

[marcelosoares]

The low power consumption makes this attractive for mini ITX builds, aside from that, i don't see much reason to buy this over the other offerings.

[Just_An_Ignacio]

Damn... this 4050 is really something else 🤩

I'd get a 6700xt over this any day of the week.

[bunsenhoneydew]

It's an "ok" card if you ignore the previous gen price/performance. If it was 12GB with slightly better memory bandwidth, it would be borderline good.
Only worth thinking about if you're upgrading from a 2060 class (or below).

[yoel]

somebody on the internet: " jay posted the worst take on the 4060". Eta: " hold my beer"

[daniel]

The main issue with this 4000 series isn't the just price/performance, it's that the introduction of the RTX 4070Ti which takes place right where the
RTX 4070 normally would be, thus making every card down the stack a lower end product with a higher number and price tag. Now, you can say names are just arbitrary, but they aren't if you price the products by their names and not their performance tiers and specs.
this in turn makes the RTX 4060 the RTX 4050, by specs and performance. the RTX 4060 we should've gotten costs 400$ and is the RTX 4060Ti, which in itself is
marketed as the RTX 4070 and goes for 600$. the 4070Ti is what should've been just the regular RTX 4070, and they could've never managed to get away with selling it for the absurd price of 800$, so first they tried calling it the "4080 12GB" but that didn't work out and they ended up changing it, but still fucking us over just the same.
Also, all cards have a crippling amounts of VRAM.
Imagine if Toyota took the 2024 Yaris, up it's price to match the 2023 Corolla, and called it a Corolla although it's the same size
as a Yaris, then change the name of the Corolla to Camry, and price it like a Camry although it's just a Corolla inside and out, then make the real actual Toyota Camry
The "Camry Premium" or something and price it almost twice what it was the previous year. That's the 4070Ti situation.
This is exactly what Nvidia is somehow getting away with and it's mind boggling.

Yah, another 40 series GPU not worth buying. Simply put, just the next scummy move from Jensen to rip off gamers.

[exodous]

I have a 3090 and I have a rule about graphics cards, I have to wait at least one generation before upgrading so I'll wait for the 50 generation or the AMD equivalent. I used to buy a new card every year but the performance doubled or more back when I did that, now it seems to be incremental increases.

[tcbat]

"Sleeping on" something means you were not aware of said thing, not that you don't prefer it.

[kevindie]

*_Okay, I finally get it, guys. I read the comments flaming him about clickbait and hyping up the most minuscule of updates, but this video is the one where I actually see how bad it really is. The 4060 is a terrible card. It’s another slap in the face to the consumer by the price increase AND decrease in performance. How is there any way someone can recommend this card to anybody??? Is there anything this guy WON’T shill to his viewers??? Holy hell._*

[hXr]

Spending 400$ for 8-10% more performance over a 3060 lol

[asadhossain]

The cat in your gaming rig is look so cool. It will be super helpful if you tell me where did you get this awesome kitty toy.

[natusvincere]

One thing I'd like to see you explore over the next few years is using the cheaper GPUs that have framegen support in older systems.

[milow-clkt]

The fact my EVGA 12gb RTX 3060 isn't that much far behind the 4060 in every benchmark I've thrown at it, gives me no incentivization to bother with anything in the 4000-series.

[sebastian_manuells]

I was wondering why no emulation tests, especially PS3, Switch.
Hope to see another video on this card.

[scyence]

Hmm. If anything, an option for an eGPU. Needs to be way cheaper though. You can get a 3060 12gb for around $260USD.
