Great comparison video. No unnecessary commentary just pure gameplay and fact spiting fps counters. Love the style . Have subscribed your channel for this sole reason. Great work and keep them coming.

See, that's why nvidia needs a gimmick like "frame generation" ("DLSS3") - to sell a technically downgraded piece of sh*t with almost none performance uplift for the same money and name it "new generation"

add gpu power usage next time it is also important stat when considering ultra budget gpu

Well if you want play only in FHD RTX 4060 is ofc better choise, but for 2k or 4k 12 gb vram of 3060 looks more powerful, but we still don't know how will be performans on 3060 after 1-2 year in new AAA games (like PS5 ports)

I still REFUSE to believe that a 3060 with 12GB of memory is the same as my GTX1060 6GB in Cyberpunk 2077, and I played Cyberpunk launch version as well, it performed even better than current version! Ridiculous!!!! Nvidia need to stop crippling that card with bad drivers, this is SAD AF.

5:05 RX 7600 was on 4K and it supposed to be RTX 4060 on 1080p whats going on there

Having DLSS and 12GB VRAM, 3060 is going to age like a fine wine. 😊

at this point is just about whether you want to save money on your energy bills, with the 4060 only maxing at 115 watts, with the 3060 pushing 180watts

The higher the resolution, the lesser fps gap. pcie, vram and 128 bit sucked.

wonder why the 3060 acts like a 8GB card on VRam usage

I have to admit that i do like the low power draw of the RTX4060, as i have a gtx1080 and it does 180 watts with easy, has no access to RT or any if these new Nvidia features, so i may just grab a RTX4060 to replace it, as i only game at 2080p 60fps, plus i can get £75 back to put to it, making it £215 for aa

Wluld you consider going from 2070 to 8gb 4060 Ti a good deal? I have 1440p monitor so no super high resolutioms for me.

Only nvidia can get away with giving less hardware for more / same amount of money

Hey, this is great test by nvidia to see how soon it can bring subscription based gpu's to dgpu's.

I'm wrestling with this now. I'm in CAN where prices are higher than US, but An 12Gb 3060 OC Dual can be had for $388 while the 8Gb 4060 OC Dual is $399. I think VRAM will be more important going forward, but the enhanced RT and DLSS3 of the 8Gb 4060 is a benefit when up against the 12 Gb 3060. I'm not quite sure which is the better option for future proofing.

If only it was easy...
The 4 series has that DLLS3 and yeah that can help. IF you trust it.
But seriously 12Gbyte... it makes sense.

It seems that in 1080p field RTX4060 is generally a better choice and with higher resolutions not the biggest gap becomes even smaller, so the choice is hard to make. Would be easier if RTX4060 had 16GB of VRAM in a price of 8GB card. An RTX2060 user can only benefit by buying RTX4060 (more power, more VRAM), but RTX3060 owner have a hard nut to crack and propably are not very convinced to throw their money on 4060 (propably 4070 would make more sense).

RAM usage in Dead space 4k test, like WHAT?! 1:22

looking at prices in my country it's funny how a 3050 now costs the same as a GTX 1660ti back in 2019 while at the same time having similar performance lol.

Surprised that The Witcher 3, a game that is several years old, had such low frame rates with DLSS enabled 😢.
