RTX 4060 vs 3060 12GB 1080p - Is it worth it? - Review #rtx4060 #rtx3060 #nvidia

RTX 4060 8GB vs RTX 3060 12GB - VRAM is KING? TEST in 8 GAMES at 1080p 1440p 4K.
My Review RTX 4060 8GB - The next generation of the popular midrange GPU RTX 4060 is now coming to market. Unfortunately, we didn't see a VRAM increase in the new generation GeForce 4060. The RTX 4060 only comes with 8GB of VRAM and I'm afraid that will be the biggest problem with this card. In the following test you will see how in many ways the older RTX 3060 12GB can beat the new RTX 4060 just because of the VRAM size. The chip itself isn't bad, bringing benefits in a number of areas. The RTX 4060 has the next generation Tensor and Ray Tracing Core as well as DLSS 3 support, NVIDIA has also added to the L2 Cache size. For 1080p resolution this card is suitable and is more powerful than its predecessor, unfortunately in other cases it is very problematic. If the card gets 12GB of VRAM I believe its performance will be very satisfactory. But I'm not too happy with the current state. The RTX 4060 is suitable for 1080p gaming, as a replacement for the basic RTX 3060, but there are better alternatives on the market. Personally, I would pay the extra money and buy the RTX 4070.

All DLSS 3, 2 and FSR settings is Quality. With DLSS 3 is Frame Generation ON.
GPU 1: MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Gaming X 8GB
GPU 2: GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING OC 12GB
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

I'm guessing the 3060 was better in Doom because of VRAM

[zenitti]

For me... Playing while streaming any game at 1080p60f smoothly, is a living dream. I'm not into competitive games, so, higher frames than 60 is a bit too much for me.

[northernseeker]

It's also DLSS 2 VS DLSS 3. This aren't equivalent benchmarking.

I’m looking at 2 cards possibly right now the 12gb 3060, and 8gb 4060. Which would be better? Does the VRAM on the 3060 make up for the lower fps? Btw the 4060 $10 more expensive

[nothing]

If rtx 3060 would get dlss 3 then it would beat the 4060 by a very high percent😂

[forgotsup]

Which one is better for blender and 3d modeling in general?

[bestintheworId]

can someone explain to me how the 4060 is better, EVEN though it has 4GB of VRAM less?

[Nked_Nuke]

Go with 4060ti 16gb not less... dont worth, rx 6700 xt is a good option if you have no gpu.

[Rajesh-ssrh]

Go with Rtx 3060 because it has more vram and the future games will be require more vram in that time 8gb would not be enough and dlss 3 won’t be enough even NVIDIA says that dlss 3 requires more vram at least 10gb

[manarakhs]

The only reason the 3060 eith dlss 2 cam even just get a bit close to the 4060 is the 12gb vram

[garyld]

I just saw that they are both at the same price on Amazon and I don't know which one to buy, I don't understand why they are at the same price, which one should I buy?

[elperchas]

Tengo la rtx 3060 de 12 vram, y les puedo decir que en mi opinión es la tarjeta gráfica más rentable de todas, muy buen rendimiento y no es demasiado cara, aunque la rtx 4060 tiene un poco mejor de rendimiento, la 3060 es más barata y corre los mismos juegos

[OutOfPaceRacing]

If you buy it on Black Friday on at least -10% price drop - yes 4060 is worth it

[Raspberry_Monsta]

I dont understand pc but wich one is good for streamin and play at the same time?

[DJRoySerrano]

you think the 4060 can run Halo Infinite at 240 and stream at the same time?

[MrTrashRat]

Well as they say you really only need 60 frames any more doesn't really make a difference unless your going out of your way to notice it

[VATAN-]

Oyunlarda iyi performans ve uzun vadeli kullanmak için hangisi daha iyi 3060 mı yoksa 4060 ?

[peadee]

This video is basically dlss vs dlss frame gen

4060= overclocked 3060 with 8gb vram

[daniela.solorzanom.]

Es mejor comprar una 3060 de 12 GB que un 4060 ?

[notfallsanitoeter]

4060 performes a little bit better on newer sytems. you will need a PCIE 5.0 because it only uses eight slots on an 16 slot pcie, also the transfer bandwith is smaller on older systems with older PCIE gens. So if youre on a budget or your pc is older then 3 to 4 years get the 3060oc.
