Posted by Djole1123@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 46 comments

At this moment i have nvidia 2060, but i want to upgrade it so i need some good gpu. I am using nvidia and i would like to stay on nvidia, so recommend me some nvidia gpu’s and if you have better idea. Btw i have intel i5 11th gen 11600, so will my CPU going to bottleneck some 350$ GPU.

When I was looking to invest in some GPUs I use for various ML tasks in late 2024, this website helped me to compare the various options on the market and find the right one.

https://gpuprices.io/

It lists and ranks GPUs from NVIDIA and AMD I think scraped from the Amazon US website. The ranking system is based on a combination of price, specs, and customer ratings.

If you want to stay on Nvidia I'd recommend going used. 3070 around $250-300, 3070ti around $300-350 or 3080 around $350-400.

Why not the 4060? Is it really bad?

[-]

BluDYT@reddit

Yes it's a horrible value. A 4060 at $300 is 30% slower than the RTX 3070($250) at 1440p and 25% slower at 1080p.

Don't. I just upgraded from 2060 to 4070 super for $600 and the improvement isn't nearly worth the difference in price. I'm returning the 4070 super and already put my 2060 back in. Just keep your 2060 until there's a real good upgrade

thats simply not correct , my 4070ti is miles better than even the 3070it on 4k

Compucaretx@reddit

I agree would have to see the system because 4070 is light years ahead of 2060. Would have to be a bottleneck issue somewhere.

Lazer_beak@reddit

the 4070 ti would totally wreak a 2060

TheTr0llXBL@reddit

You just saved me some $ and effort, ty

Djole1123@reddit (OP)

Yeah but then i am going to lose more money on 2060 when i want to sell it

Compucaretx@reddit

What resolution is your monitor. 1080p or 1440p?

[-]

Djole1123@reddit (OP)

Idk its 60hz but i am buying a new one that is 1080p

[-]

Gregardless@reddit

Absolutely stick with the 2060

[-]

Compucaretx@reddit

4060 is great upgrade over 2060 at 1080p. Why is it that there is so much hate for 1 video card?

KEEFY98@reddit

best bang for your buck gonna be used.

for reference my 3070 I got off facebook market for $220.

Neraxis@reddit

need some good gpu

Yeah thats not happening at your price range.

4060 ti is your only option but the 7700xt is literally better in every way except RT.

[-]

jia456@reddit

4060ti and 7700xt are neck and neck in RT. Plus, at the 4060ti/7700xt performance level I wouldn't even bother turning RT on as you are starved for frames as is without RT.

I bought a refurbished 3070Ti Super with a 2 year warranty for $299

If you look, you can find some.

Also avoids the Nvidia overhead where older CPUs become bottlenecked by 20-30% performance compared to AMD equivalents.

W8 for 5000 series launch. People will start selling tons of gpus. If u are willing to go used route

[-]

Djole1123@reddit (OP)

I am but i don’t know which is good

[-]

KINGADIB42@reddit

After 5000 series launch. Seach FB marketplace or whatever used electronic selling website and note the gpu that are available. Then check this GPU RANKING and get the best one. And if both Amd & Nvidia have similarly ranked get Nvidia
