    I don’t know, it’s been another year of overpriced GPUs that didn’t advance as much as some past generations have.

        but the 4080 and 4090 absolutely blow previous gens out of the water

        Just the 4090, the 4080 is not is not that big a jump compared to the 3090Ti. Considering the 4080 trades blows with the 7900xtx, can’t say that it blows previous gen out of the water

    128-bit bus… that is pretty bad.

    Even the non-TI RTX 3060 had a 192-bit bus and 12 GB of memory. The fact that a lower tier and older product sounds more appealing is a major error in Nvidia’s judgment for this generation of budget cards.

      I don’t understand why they couldn’t keep pushing the 3060 until they were truly ready for a 4060 that’s better. You don’t have to release new products on every single segment every single time. Especially if they confuse the buyers of that segment.

        I think that’s why: confusing those less “hardcore” into thinking 4060 is a massive leap from 3060. It’s pure corporate greed and annoying as hell.

      IMO the base 3060 is the best price/performance Nvidia card out right now and it’s over $100 cheaper than the 4060 Ti.
