well if you have to hit shared ram you will tank fps
what's shared ram
system ram that gpu will use to be able to run things that take more then the cards v-ram
oh
i mean does 4 gigs of vram matter that much
isn't like overall the 4060 better than the 3060
6700xt.
7600
6650xt
I have a 4060 that I recently bought and noticed a huge difference between 20 to 30-series, and 30 to 40-series. But it matters on the games, if you wanna play textures and renders on the max etc. then I'd say get a card with more VRAM, but if you want better graphical rendering and looks while taking it down a tad on the texture quality then go for the 4060. Mind you that some games have outdated graphics APIs so the 3060 could be a better choice for a game such as BeamNG.Drive, but some games support the Vulkan renderer now as an alternative so that would not pose a problem over outdated APIs.
4060 is slightly better perf wise
8gb vram wont be an issue at 1080p just yet so i wouldnt worry, unless the aim is higher res gaming
Though if you dont need nvidia features, it’s hard to argue with the 6700XT/6750XT
if hes just gaming a 4060 and 3060 both should be avoided anyway
