is the 2060 the best value card rn?
>>738955994It's the ultimate 1080p60fps experience. Go for it!
>>738956084my 1650 does that for less
>>738955994isn't it 6600xt/3060?
>>738955994Idk bro my old 1070 can still crush 1080 games. Although I use my newer 3070 system most of the time for that 1440p goodness. If a game doesn’t run at like 60-100 fps on hardware from the current decade then there is honestly no point in playing it
>>7389559946GB is not nearly enough.Just get a 5070 with the performance of a 4090 for a fraction of the price.
I'm still using a 2070S.The most demanding game I played was Resident Evil Requiem and had no problems.
>>738955994no, it's by far the RX6650XT skyrocketing due to FSR 4.1 official and better yet if you got one at 200$
>>738955994Depends on what you want to play and how.If you want to play directX6 games with the worst graphics possible for example, you can get an alliance AT3D, and if you want a card with exclusive games, you can get a S3 virge or nvidia NV1
>>738955994No the amd 6000 series or 7000 series
>>738956871despite op's pic there IS a 2060 12gb
>>738956871>5070>no physX 32 supportyeah nah
>>738958361What games do you play that still use 32-bit PhysX for some minor effects?It's supported in new drivers anyway for the games that people care about.
>>738955994value for what, not running anything at max? yeah its valuable. in 2016
I wouldn't settle for anything less than a 3060 12GB tbqh.
>>738955994I've been using a 2060 for 7 years now. Its been good enough for me so far. I'm surprised anyone in current year would want to buy one. Is it because they are cheap?
unironically....where is the best place to even buy GPUs without getting brutally fucked by price gouging? amazon and best buy seem like 100% ripoffs
>>738959335Check your local black market, I know a Bulgarian guy Kirill, he can get you anything.
>>738955994No the 3080 is, can get one used for 300 bucks
If the card doesn't have 16GB VRAM it's basically over
>>738958361They manually went back and added support for those handful of games which had 32bit physx
>>738955994The entire point of buying nvidia is framegen and dlss and 2060 has no framegenRadeon mogs price/value otherwise
>>738959289same here, idgaf about muh graphics and turn everything down to minimum for frames and its worked out fine for the most part. i very rarely play modern unoptimized bloatware though. sf6 can just barely reach 60 fps and is often more around 57-58 and overwatch has been dipping below 144 more often now (however this is purely due to blizzard incompetence because it used to run at 200+ always no matter what two years ago and a friend with a similarly powerful card has been getting tons of dropped frames and microstuttering) which annoys the fuck out of me
>>738959692Had one for a few years when I was building on a budget and it's still an amazing graphics card.>>738959719I was using a 3080 10gb for 4k gaming for years and it was fine. No game hit the vram limit.
>>738959920>I was using a 3080 10gb for 4k gaming for years and it was fineimagine lying this badly to yourself
>>738959920>No game hit the vram limit.Clearly hasn't seen the trend, then. Indiana Jones and the great circle can use north of 22GB VRAM at 4k, 12GB at 1080p and that isn't even bruteforced UE5 slop. 12GB VRAM cards from nvidia aren't expected to even play most games at native 1080p anymore.
>>738959335PLEASE REPLY
>>738960113I literally played indiana jones on it in 4k no issue.
>>738960161played !== ran well. stop coping faggot
>>738960161
>>738955994No. Too many newer games already need more than 6GB VRAM.
>>738955994It's the 9060 XT 16GB no question
>>738955994no, rx6600 is.
>>738955994NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Ti is probs the best 16GB for budget price point, next gen games won't run higher than on medium at 1080p and 60fps though.
>>738960408>radeon gpuits like buying a hipoint
>>738960246ran at over 60 fps all of the time
>>738955994used 3080 is good, tho you need pretty beefy power supply for it
>>738960408i got the 7600 and am happy with it linuxfag though and mostly play older games so 8gb is not an issue
>>738959335You get price gouged by trying to get a GPU period. There isn't a good card on the market.
>>738955994should i buy a 5070 or wait for the 6070?i have a 3070 atm
>>738961440what are you planning it for? GTA 6?
>>738960408Close but it's rx6650xt
>>738961581Aion 2 mainly, it runs ok with the 3070 but it could run way better
>>738961685Based, it won't be a huge upgrade, just some extra FPS, (Aion is limited by its own graphics engine anyways not your hardware) if it already runs at solid 60fps or 120fps, there's no reason to go higher for an MMO.
>>738961440Just undervolt and overclock the 3070 and it'll feel like a new card in some ways.
>>738961871Already have>>738961846I get about 80 FPS with some lowered settings but it goes much lower in large scale battles, maybe I should be looking at cpu instead
>>738962001Then yeah, just wait for the next gen cards to drop.
Isn´t a 3060 barely a bit more? And a 4060 like 100$ more or so. I don´t see how it´s worth it unless you are really on tight budget
>>738962332RTX 4080 Ti is really just another $100 on the price point in terms of that logic and much more viable option for longevity PC build.
>>738958361source?
I refuse to deal with Nvidia's power connector faggotry so if I do upgrade I'm limited to the 5060 Ti 16GB or the 9070 XT
>>738963790I've been using a 5070 for a couple of months and it's been perfectly fine. Don't understand the power connector issues especially if you're not using a x90 series card.
>>738964715this pic is absolutely incoherent
>>738960590>buying njudeano thanks.
>>738960590More like a big iron, yet it's up to you to learn linux in order to be come an Arizona Ranger.
>>738964715And after all the memes it turns out everything was in fact shit.
4080 if you can find one at microcenter between 500-700 dollars.
>>738964789What exactly about it has you confused?
>>738964715sex with the 1030, 1650S and RX580.
>>7389559944070 is
>>738959782They did? Nvidia's long-term support is no joke.
>>738961440I'd chill. 3070 is good enough for now.
>>738955994Most games i can run fine on a fucking ryzen 5700g. Got an old minisforum elite b550 mini PC with a GPU dock. Normally id be running it with my ARC a700 16 gb but my power supply broke and im using the shitty internal GPU til i get another. Have some other shit to spend money on right now.Anyways yeah my setting arent as high but as far as just runnin games at 1080p 60 FPS yeah the APU is honestly completely fine.Mind you the HX 9 ai 370 in my GPD pocket 4 is far better than the APU in my desktop frankly my ARC a700 absolutely crushes them both.The point is this, as long as you arent playing AAA slop shit games (and why the fuck would you, they all fuckin suck these days) Fuckin anything semi modern or good is good enough these days.Anyways heres some shit ive run with a 5700g since my PSU died so you can get an idea.PalworldDolls nest (UEslop engine but it fucking runs fine at lower settings)First descendant (More UEslop low settings)Enshrouded (fucking pushin it here but its barely playable)Various friend slop (REPO, L4D2 ect...)RE7/8 (havent got the new one and dont care about remakes)System shock remake.AC6Various other smaller, older or indie games.You dont really NEED much just to run a functional game guys. Sure I cant wait to use my GPU again (thing is so underrated) but I wouldnt feel too bad about a low to mid range GPU or an older GPU or a half decent APU.
>>738966001i agreei have a small form factor machine with a 1050 and i can play tons of games
>>738966001Fuckin typos i meant to say a770 not a700. Fuck me im retarded.
>>738966090Everyone on this godforsajen site acts as if you need a fucking RTX5090 just to get by.Mostly shills and marketers but still its a lie repeated.Fools and their money are easily separated...
>>738959920I use a 3080ti 12gb for playing RuneScape. Somefucking how it runs at 80% and 70°C playing runescape. Don't ask me how. Runescape has a shit code
>>738966857have you tried lowering the power limit in afterburner?
>>738955994I bought a 2060 12GB nearly 4 years ago and deeply regret not getting a 4070 Ti Super 16GB for $600 when I had a chance
>>738966264You can get by with an n64 and a copy of mario kart. What people talk about is whether something is worth buying or not vs what you already have and the answer is always "everything is shit, don't buy anything unless money is not even a consideration" which leads to the only thing getting recommended being whatever is at top value be damned because that's the only market getting served.
i upgraded from a 1050 to a $100 used 2070 last year lol go for it. being a stingy poorfag rocks
>>738967137nice
>>738967137Nothing wrong with a 100 usd 2070. At 1080p most games should run fine at medium high.
>>738966264Most people here are talking about at either 1440p or 4K, not 1080p, and even at 1080p some games might suffer unless you're playing them on Medium. It really depends on your CPU combo as to where you're at with your GPU. It took a CPU upgrade for my 3070 to stop getting bottlenecked but Marvel Rivals is still sometimes hitting 80% load on my GPU at 1080p with DLSS 4.5 enabled even if it sticks at 60. A lot of people here also really do not want to use DLSS or FSR so that also factors into things, and they also have some hang up about 120 FPS nowadays.
>>738966857Undervolt it and you'll drop 100w for like 2 fps loss in games
>>738968891>120 FPS>1440p/4KYeah those aren't real problems. Most of you fuckers couldnt tell the difference in resolution if pressed and if you say you can youre full of shit. The FPS thing you can tell but its also painfully trivial and doesnt affect gameplay or the ability to enjoy a game.Thats mostly marketing/keeping up with the joneses bullshit.
>>738969413Believe me, it's absolutely "Keeping up with the Joneses" type stuff, but many people here are obsessed about it for some reason and will argue to the death about it. If you use DLSS/FSR? Fake frames, unplayable. Don't play at 1440p/4K on High? Unplayable. Etc.
>>738968891Always knew you were a moron. Dont use dlss 4.5 with anything below 40 series. Ampere doesnt have the necessary hardware to accelerate the dlss 4.5 algorithms so performance tanks. Stick to dlss 4.0 forever.
Should I just buy this instead for my first build? Seems like the best mid tier graphics card on the market right now especially for the size of the vram it carries.
>>738970360i rather get a jewvidia 5060 or rx 7600b580 is the card internet and techtubers loves, but barely anyone actually brought it
>>738966857Are you running that game at 4000 fps, perhaps? Frame limits can help. Reminds me of the time when a lot of ingame menus started heating up your GPU like crazy because of that.
>>738970470For the same price those cards carry way less vram though and I feel like that futureproofs the b580 by a bit
>>738955994If you live in a favela and need to play LoL or Valorant yes
>>738970360Intel is dangerous, because their driver stuff isn't mature yet + their small market share makes devs not really care about making sure things run well on them.
The 9060XT exist for the super poor
>>738971402>Valorant stop being facetious, its can run on a 730
I have a 2070 in a laptop and can still play everything at mid/high 1080p 60fps
>>738971383no budget gpu around 300$ is futureproof, the vram meme could only go so far if the card is not fast enoughjust spend more on 5070ti tier cards if you want real futureproof
>>738969491Even though I saw a performance gain in 4.5? Or would I gain the same performance gain on 4.0? Because I was on 4.0 and when I swapped to 4.5 certain games like Marvel Rivals and WuWa gained like 3-4 FPS on my old CPU setup.
>>738971552no you can't
God I wish they would just release more 4090s. I would probably never have to buy another video card ever again, which I suppose would be a problem to them.
>>738972173Yes, I can
>>738955994Why a 2060?
>>738965182meme is ruined for me the moment I realized that forms ZZ instead of SS, always remember, it has to from SS.The swastika with Z is from some faggy hindu symbols related with spirit or something.
>>738972515As usual, Novidya will find a way to push a deliberately unoptimized feature, make it a mandatory addition to every game made on a recent engine, and force you to upgrade to get the same FPS you would've seen in a similar game 10 years back.
>>738961440I wouldnt jump from a gimped vram card to another gimped vram card where both cards are gong to be bottlenecked by the vram limit waaaay before hitting the processing limit
Does this card run well on every AAA game bros
>>738955994I bought a 4060 8GB for under 250$ so I dunno why you should pick a 2060for the same price
>>738961440it's been 2 years...better to wait
>>738977573intel is getting abandoned except their iGpus
I got a rx7600 because I live in a shithole where prices are absolutely arbitrary and this thing will probably last me forever since I don't play AAA slop.
>>738977573lol
>>738977573Israeli ahh card
>>738977573after the latest news, the 5 intel gpu users on reddit are probably huffing copium rn
>>738979460only 5060/7600 price remains affordable after memory crisis lolsoon 5050/5060 is going to dominate the steam charts
Why do you need more than 8 vram though?
>>738981034Because of all things you dont want to hit a vram limit in a game, literal worst thing that can happen and with a lot of high res textures and increased draw distance you want a lot of headroom8gb is just not enough, even with weaker cards that use it, 12gb is starting to show its limitations as well so I would avoid that too16gb or bust these days
>>738982728i play SF6, Rivals, and RE9 with my gtx 1060 3GB just fine
>>738955994Just grab a 1080 Ti for like $160 and gaym on that
>>738981034for nothing.going textures from high to ultra/extreme is useless.
>>738956945>No problemsYour standards are very low.
>>738983840Going from ultra to high also won't get you out of vram problems. 8gb cards are useless indeed.
>>738964715what loli my 5070ti would be?
I used to have that card. Here's the MH wilds beta on it.
>>738955994No, that would be the 3060 12gb
>>738960590a solid product that's cheaper than its competitors, works excellently, and has the best customer support in its industry?sign me up
Got the RTX5070 for overall 470€ October 2025.
>>738956871>6GB is not nearly enough.Perfectly enough for Full HD unless you get a huge monitor or something.
>>738987603Wasted your money, 12gb vram is already not enough
>>738955994if you factor in the cost of everything else, you could pay the same amount for a refurbed 3070/3080/4070 laptop and play more games than that piece of poo. if i'm on a budget i don't even think about building a desktop anymore, just get a used laptop and go 1 or 2 generations older.
>>738988296not enough to play unoptimized kiddieslop with RT ON, perhaps
>>7389614405070 sucks. Right now the only card that's relatively cheap while still being future proof is the 5070 Ti.
>>738981034Future proofing. PC parts won't be made anymore after 2030 so it'll be nice to have something that'll last a few more years.
>>7389559945090s are practically free.
>>738991280Imagine being Brazilian and wishing your dystopian phones only shit on the rest of the world.
>>738991381I mean, unless China starts making serious hardware AND the EU/USA allow it to be traded, PCs won't exist anymore in 2030.
>>738991330yeah this thread is full of poorfags trying to justify their terrible financial decisions. Reminds me of the Discworld analogy about poorfags needing to buy 20 cheap pairs of 5$ boots that break all the time because they are incapable of paying 50$ for a pair of good boots that will last for years...
>>738991818There's no evidence of that. It's just "I can't afford a gaming PC, so PCs are dying." You want everyone to be as destitute as you, so you don't feel as bad.
>>738992220>$50make it $100 you have a point
>>738992506Sorry, I'm buying a $200 GPU every 2 months, but I won't buy a $2000 one every 2-3 years. That's just a bad value proposed by Ngreedia.
>>738992623but 2000$ every 2-3 years is better value than 200$ every 2 month? not even counting inflation? are you actually this retarded? kekaroo
>>738992220>>738992623Pretending to be retarded makes you a spiritual poorfag
>>738992506it's still a better deal at 100$ because you are getting immediate quality instead of trudging around with shit for years.
>>738992773>dollar sign after the numberYou're not allowed to participate in this argument, as you are almost certainly poor.
>>738992460I got a 1800 euro PC bro lol go read about agenda 2030
>>738992895>poor because Im not an amerimuttok nigger
>>738992929>europeanSo I was right.>>738993059>using my screenshot croppedtsk tsk
>>738977070As if normalfags can tell the difference
>>738993083>"muh screenshot"the amerimutt nigger is lying, how surprising... kek
>>738985156Everything after that is just various versions of crying Aqua.
>>738993403>keeps copying my pics from the 'cord
>>738992838that's what I noticed from my experience hence why I started $100
>>738992220In the real world you can buy a sturdier pair of boots or cheap boots, in ngreedia land if you fall for the more expensive purchase all that happens is performance requirements go up so it lasts everyone just as long as the cheap shit would have but now at 50 times the price for no benefit.
>>738993756what is this schizo post lmaodo you really see no difference between playing a game at low-mid settings and max/cinematic/insanity? performance requirements is irrelevant for the next 10 years when you buy a top rig
>>738955994I recently build one with 3600x and it can run mhmilds at 45fps medium setting and most modern aaa at 60 without any sacrifice It would perform much better if you get a better cpu than mine though
>>738988296>DLSS Quality>Frame Gen>Still dives in the 30sLMFAO modern gaming everybody
>>738993538too late Rajesh... (You) are not getting your izzat back, it's mine now!
>>738994798Why do you know so many Indian names? Do you just pick one off a nametag at the call center you're enslaved at?
>>738994764well yeah, Hogwart's Legacy has absolutely garbage top end graphics implementation. No idea why anybody would use it to benchmark rigs/gpu
>>738994915(You) are not fooling anyone, Apu. Now say that Allah and Vishnu are bloody bastard benchods and maybe we will let it slide this time...
>>738995094Apu is a Finnish word that means "help."
>>738994764it dives into the 30s because it runs out of vram in that clip
>>738995196my bad anon, (You) are right!he looks exactly like a modern inhabitant of finland/swede/norway kek
>>738955994I don't think they sell those anymore (no I will not buy your used crap), so if I were to make a budget PC, I'd prolly get RTX 5060 or AMD equivalent. GPU is not a component I would skimp on too much. Instead I'd rather buy a weaker CPU and some shit mobo with no features.
>>738995365You drew a self portrait. Cute.
>>738995425>he still cant insult Allah and Vishnukekshitskins are such cucks
>>738955994They're bringing back the 3060 into production I'd probably get that instead. Though idk if they're bringing back the 12GB version, probably not.
Read the title anons, it says -right now-best valueA 2070 super has to be expensive
best value has to be rx 9070 non XT
>>738994479If everyone bought a 5090 everyone wouldn't have top performance everyone would have very expensive shitty performance. The actual hardware doesn't matter only how much better you have it vs other people which means paying more for a gpu is paying more for literally nothing.
>tfw still rocking 16GB of DDR4 ram and really want to upgrade to 32how am i supposed to do this in 2026
>>738996810>everyone driving lambos is exactly the same as everyone riding horsestake your meds.
>>738996929by working a month at McDonalds' lazy niggerfaggot
>>738996981If you give everyone a million dollars you lower the value of what a million dollars is worth. If you give everyone a 5090 then new games will all look and run like shit because devs just aimed lower for a passable product. Your lambo turns into a tricycle just by having other people buy it too. That doesn't happen with sturdy boots because they stay sturdy no matter how many people buy them.
>>738966001A friend of mine is seething over i wanting a amd card because he got problems with his driver updates for nu game slop, which i will never buy it because fuck modern aaa slop and retarded devs doimg mental gymnastics to not point it out that this is sony and epic's fault
>>738995860Allah will save us. EA being bought by Saudis means Tali will be canon wife, and all gayness will be removed.
>>7389565509070xt and its not even a contest as its $200 cheaper than 5070ti
>>738997578nigger if you dont understand the basics of technological progress, we have nothing to discuss. If everybody has a 5090, all the games will look better on average than if everybody has a fucking Atari... Just like a poorfag today lives more confortably than a Rotschild in the 19th century, whatever your schizo conspiracy about "muh downgrading devs" is about...
PSA: AMD is going to shit more 6000 and 7000 in the market soon because they announced fsr4.1 for both in june. Expect nvidia doing a full 100/120/150 price cut everywere, even at the tax shithole thai is shitzil, eu or japan to counter this, because this update is going to put the heavy hitters back in business, if you still own a 6700+ or 7700+ series xt, that one will be on crosshairs for a long time.
