            @barge-in hunter: Joke aside, depending on which game and res you’re running upgrading to a 12 gig card can make a big difference. I have a 3070 and some games at 4K refuse to load in high quality assets. It’s a real pain in the butt because otherwise the performance is there

        My thoughts exactly. @shreav got his 3070, which is better, for $300.
        If he had neither of them now, the 3070 is still $129 better off and higher performance

          What brand n model is yours.

          I got a Asus KO RTX 3070 i belive it's non LHR according to gpu z as well for $345.96 off ebay ($5 coupon lol) back in November. (2024)

          But yeah $300 beats that by a good amount especially one yr ago!

          like ooft i paid $429 for a xfx rx 6600 xt that's been cursed and plagued w coil whine… did a rma to recieve another unit? refurbished? w coil whine again and did another rma and they said there was no coil whine despite there being such so just got it sent back lol.

          never buying xfx again

          as for the maxsun in this post one time i brought a pc off gumtree that came w maxsun mobo and maxsun 1050 ti.

          well i took the gpu out and put it in another pc amd it kept crashing and having visual errors so wouldn't put much trust into maxsun… and would rather get the other b580 cards

          not true, spiderman remastered and last of us part 1 remastered 3070 loses to b580 at 1440p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV_xL88vcAQ&t=1226s

          I would assuming all new games in 2025 will require more than 8gb vram even at 1080p and a certainty at 1440p unless you are happy with micro stutters and texture pop ins :P

          In last of us part 1, the 3070 has 21fps1% lows vs 44fps 1% lows, that's more than 110% difference! 8gb already obsolete for 1440p new games

          • rainbowunicorn on 19/12/2024 - 19:44

            @neosin: Spiderman is a neglible diff in that vid. And no one is playing LOU at 40fps avg. You'll need to turn settings down to achieve a playable fps, one of those settings could be textures.
            3070 is gddr6x 256bit vs gddr6 192bit bus.
            If 3070s are going for $300, it's a 140$/43% mark up for a slight advantage in 1 game at those exact settings. Even the video you linked shows 3070 is clearly ahead in 12 game average by 14%. Not saying it's the 3070 is the best choice for everyone but if you know which games you like to play and 2nd hand is ok, 3070 or even 3060ti is a strong contender.

            "All new games in 2025 will require more than 8gb vram". Complete untrue and not sure why would assume this. I don't think I need to elaborate on that point.

              @rainbowunicorn: Incorrect, last of us 1440p ultra b580 = 54fps average not the 40fps you said. So yes turning down some settings will achieve 60fps

              3070s are NOT going for $300 aud, I'm on OCAU everyday and they go for 350-400$, the only ones that go for $300 are heavily mined gpus with rust and oxidation. If you are trying to compare a mined/oxidated card (with 0 warranty and can die any day) to a new card (with 3-4yrs warranty) with then I'm not even going to bother arguing with you lol!

              Just because your mined card is still running doesn't mean it's a good bet, I can buy a 20 yr old car and drive it "just fine" doesn't mean 20 yr old cards in general will be fine lol!

              Yes you are correct, I should clarify I meant all new big title game releases even most 2024 big titles need more than 8gb ram for 1440p, unless you plan to play on a 10yr old 1080p monitor lol! It's obvious I didn't mean 2d platformers and low budget indie games that look worse than crysis 1 15 yrs ago!

              You should watch this video before you think 8gb will be enough for 2025 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx4En-2PzOU&t=844s

    so with current fresh driver the performance seems to hang around a 4060ti but if history repeats and Intel massively improve their drivers over time this could be good time to get one

      MAXSUN is the first AIB to state the 2850MHz overclock

      Because of the large die and relatively large node, the B580 is designed to overclock and some are already hitting 3000MHz

      After the dust settles with O/C profiles and drivers, the B580 will become a $400 4060 Ti 12GB

      • TeddyBear on 19/12/2024 - 18:12

        Yeah the 5nm libraries Intel are using seem to be fairly low density. I've heard they're about as dense as TSMC 7nm, which should translate to better OC headroom.

        I wonder how memory variants are in circulation as a good memory overclock could yield even greater performance. Custom GDDR6 timings could improve this even further, if possible.

    • blackadder18 on 19/12/2024 - 16:15

      The Alchemist line saw massive improvements because drivers were that bad at launch. While we will probably see improvements over time as the drivers continue to mature, I doubt we will see such a meteoric uplift as we did last time.

      I can agree as a A750 owner, I've had no issues. But I play mostly eSports titles, which are generally not problematic. I also bought about 6 months after the launch so most of the issues were worked out by the time I bought it.

    • elcheapoinoz on 20/12/2024 - 00:33

      Have you tried the latest upscaling? I'm tempted to go Intel from my 4060ti, they probably end up similar performance, but the vram could end up favouring Intel.
      I do love dlss though, so hopefully Intel caught up

        Yeah I can't find a reason to upgrade from my 3080 that was 500 + 50 for the water block. I think I'd be looking at 1000 just to get similar performance from a 4070S.

    • AP7 on 19/12/2024 - 14:54

      Is it safe to get a used GPU? Any risk of the card being worn out from crypto mining?

      • kid-vhee on 19/12/2024 - 15:06
        +10

        In my experiences, im less worried about crypto mining and more about overclockers. Crypto mining tends to be undervolted and run consistently, new paste and quick dust off can renew mining cards.

        Overclockers who abuse card's voltages can have underlying issues or damaged vrm.

        • goodwillN1 on 19/12/2024 - 17:30

          Most current cards have power limits built into the BIOS. So the way to OC a card today is to undervolt it…

        • TeddyBear on 19/12/2024 - 18:18
          +1

          It's near impossible to break most modern cards when overclocking within their firmware defined power limits. So many settings which were originally tweak-able are soft-locked or limited now.

          The one thing I would look out for is a how a particular card's memory layout is cooled. This is often overlooked and many run incredibly hot from factory, although they are usually still within spec.

      • Balls on 19/12/2024 - 15:24

        I've been using used gpus for 15 years, my current is a 3060 ti that was clearly stated being repaired AND from crypto mining that i got for cheap $100, it's been rock solid 2 years so far, but obviously ymmv and i might just be lucky, but i take care of my components particularly if they are used, i.e new paste as soon as i got them, cleaned regularly and well ventilated case etc

      • Maddsyz27 on 19/12/2024 - 18:11
        +1

        I got a used 3070 off a friend that was used for mining. Minor rust on the IO end. I pulled it apart. Repasted the thermal paste and pads. Cleaned the fans a bit. Put it back together and runs really well. Runs a little hot at about 80 degrees. but 30 series cards are hotter than 40 series.

        But i guess it really depends on how long it was used for and what shape its in

        Got it last november

        • siggy213 on 19/12/2024 - 20:03

          Just fix the fan curve and you can probably drop it to 60s or less. Fan just needs to run faster at set temps to do this and you will get a bit more life out of it.

    This card is great news. Hoping it forces AMD and NVIDIA to respond with a more competitive offering for their next-gen cards next month. Pricing is the only thing that can change for them this close to launch of course.

      It is, but the only thing that will actually force change in the longer term is if people actually buy the intel offering… Intel offering competitive pricing so amd and NVIDIA hopefully drop prices won't work for more than 1 generation if people still just buy the NVIDIA/AMD offering anyway.

    • WorstAgreeableRadish on 19/12/2024 - 15:07

      4060 is slower even with RT ultra.
      DLSS isn't that great at lower res, even though it's better than xess and fsr.

      4060 is also an 8gb card, which is just not good enough for anything other that esports titles.

      The only thing (and it's a massive thing) the 406p has going for it is stable drivers.

      • Raynes on 19/12/2024 - 16:12

        8gb which is just not good enough for anything other that esports titles

        That's a fairly extreme over exaggeration, unless you're wanting 144fps on everything

        • goodwillN1 on 19/12/2024 - 17:37
          +7

          Lack of VRAM does not prevent super high FPS. But if you don't have enough VRAM you can get suttering, texture drop ins and other non-smooth issues. So depending on amount of VRAM you either have problems or you don't. So once you reach that limit the effects are pretty bad.
          Luckilly , or stupidly, games today have to have additional logic built into them to go into panic mode on these low VRAM cards and try to shuffle it around so that it causes minimum issues to the player. Some devs do a poor job at this. And they would not have to worry about it as much if NVidia stopped being greedy with VRAM.

        • xrailgun on 19/12/2024 - 17:58

          VRAM and high fps are almost completely unrelated, unless you're in stuttering territory

        • nikoris on 19/12/2024 - 21:01

          Bro really said ' fairly extreme over exaggeration', like which one is it lol

        • WorstAgreeableRadish on 20/12/2024 - 14:17

          Like GoodwillN1 said, VRAM doesn't have a direct linear effect on FPS.

          You can have 200fps avg smooth gameplay with 10gb VRAM, and 190fps avg, but with frequent drops to 30fps when you have 9GB VRAM.
          Or 200fps avg, but missing textures on some objects. Or very low res textures on some objects.

          RTX uses additional VRAM. DLLS uses additional VRAM.

          The fix is to set texture details to medium or low when you play some (soon to be most) games and have an 8GB card. In my opinion, better textures has pretty much the biggest impact on image quality in a game.

      Don't know if I'd say the GTX 580 was a great value though.. Wouldn't that have gone to the 560 maybe even the 570 of the time? RX580 absolutely.

    Cheap performance, 5060 will ship with 8g ram lol

    • vanyellow on 19/12/2024 - 17:03

      i would almost consider that a joke/meme if it does

      Not confirmed yet. But even if it does have 8GB it'll still be considerably faster than the B580.

    • Look Up on 19/12/2024 - 18:23

      Yep

      5090 32GB and 5080 16GB are confirmed

      Meaning 5070 12GB is 99% confirmed

      Meaning 5060 Ti 8GB and a delayed 5060 12GB - just like RTX 30 series - is 98% confirmed

      When it comes to shitty segmentation, NV takes the worst case scenario and makes it reality

      The 5060 Ti 16GB with crippled 128 bit memory bus might make a return for shits and giggles but NV will happily drop that market to the 8800 XT and B770 to sell more $4000 5090's

      Waiting for Luke @ Techfast to open up pre-orders for the pre-tariff $3.8K Galax 5090 special and sell out within 30 minutes

      • jasswolf on 20/12/2024 - 01:52

        GB203-based 16GB 5070 Ti is expected, and there may be updates or launches with 3GB GDDR7 chips (eg. 18GB 5070, 12GB 5060) before the refreshes, as the manufacturing ramp for that new inbetween VRAM offering is only kicking off in January.

        16GB 5060 Ti may be just fine due to the minimum 55% increase in bandwidth compared to the 4060 Ti, will depend on if it's GB205 (allegedly 50 SM, but top SKU is the 5070) or GB206 (36 SM) based.

      5060 will probably cost $600 at launch :(

    It's a small thing but I don't think it's counts to say the final price is $409 — you're getting store credit not a discount

    • Shortly8 on 25/12/2024 - 14:36

      Unless we exchange store credit with other users, which can be used before you purchase an item. Though people could use this to scam.

    can this do minecraft RT

    • AndrewMTG on 19/12/2024 - 23:20

      yes but also like Microsoft has barely touched that.

      and by minecraft rt mojangs official thingy w nvidia it's the win10 vers(bedrock) not java edition.

      if you want proper rtx just get a shaderpack that uses raytracing and you'll be set.

    No point rushing to buy this. Wait for RTX 5060 and then decide.

    • buffalo bill on 19/12/2024 - 16:15

      I wouldn't be buying any GPU with 8GB vram at this point.

      • Mr Bob Dobalina on 19/12/2024 - 16:24
        +3

        Again, I would wait to see whether it will in fact be 8GB (not confirmed yet).

    • gfunk zero on 20/12/2024 - 10:28

      buy this to show nvidia 8gb vram is a joke

  • Lange on 19/12/2024 - 16:13

    4070 or this for 1440p gaming?

    Upgrading from gtx970

    • buffalo bill on 19/12/2024 - 16:15

      Can you get 4070 new for this price?

      • dexx on 19/12/2024 - 18:53

        during Black Friday sales the 4070 dipped under $700

        • nikoris on 19/12/2024 - 21:02

          I mean, its a totally different price range my man.

            @nikoris: Apropos of nothing, 4090 was under $2565 mid-'23.

    Mwave is on the list of participating retailers for a free copy of Assassins Creed Shadows with Intel products, B580s from other retailers definitely include it

    https://softwareoffer.intel.com/Campaign/LearnMore/99beaf1a-…

    someone should check with them

    RTX5090 is poised to only cost around 0.6 ETH / 0.02 BTC. I think it's a good to wait for the RTX 5090 especially if you have lots of cheap ETH and BTC collected over the years.

    • boirganz on 02/01/2025 - 23:07

      Stop trying to make fetch happen.

      No one talks about goods in terms of ETH or BTC.

      • Dollar Dreamer on 02/01/2025 - 23:12

        Start buying ETH and BTC now, in a few years it will all 5x and you can save a lot of money.
