The RTX 4060 - A Budget Gamer's Perspective
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- Today we're looking at the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060. This 8GB graphics card is one of the lowest-cost launches of the year, so let's see how it does in 20 popular games.
I've also paired it with an old Xeon system to see if DLSS Frame Generation can improve performance, and I've got a few RTX 2060 comparisons to discuss.

2016: 4K is the future of gaming!
2019: 8K is the future of gaming!
2023: 1080p is fine
Amusingly 900p and 720p are starting to creep back into the picture.
@@dycedargselderbrother5353 720p is simply out of the picture these days.
Seriously I'd rather not playing the game in 720p entirely.
Unreal Engine games simply looks more horrendous in 720p, this issue began to emerge in 2015. I mean I can stomach 720p in old games with no issue. But after playing, say; DMC5, Gears 5, and Civ 6... I despise playing any modern games in 720p.
@@nickochioneantony9288if you use dlss or fsr at 1080p you're literally running the game at 720p
@@nickochioneantony9288 I think (I hope) that he meant the 900p and 720p in the context of handhelds, like Steam Deck and RoG Ally. 720p on an actual standalone monitor.... ugh.
@@GewelReal so? since the image looks identical to native 1080p, what's the problem? What is this obsession with the amonut of pixels? The final results is what actually matters. For example, if DLSS 4 can make 360p images look like 1080p and 720p images look like 4K i will be extremely impressed and happy.
You put more effort into this review than nvidia put in the entire 4000 series.
True ! 😂
If only AMD did the same for their GPUs
@@StudioKelpie1993 if only people didn't just blindly buy Nvidia anyway. AMD can literally bring the sun moon and stars
and people would still buy Nvidia
MAKING £$€ a BAD thing?
Yeah because 4060 = 4050, 4060ti = 4050 ti, 4070 = 4060ti, they scammed people but got caught lying with cancelled Rtx 4080 12gb that become Rtx 4070. None of those current gen GPUs are worth the MSRP prices, except maybe Rx 6700 xt
It’s clear that the 4060 is a budget card, not being much of an improvement on the other 60 series cards, however if you look at the power draw, it’s the efficiency of this card which shines, it’s insanely good.
Yes. Budget for small psu
It's a shame it didn't have 4GB more of VRAM.
this card aint even that bad, its the best gpu u can buy for 1080p if you care about ray tracing
Temperatures too, I could have gotten an AMD for £20 less that gives me on average an extra 10fps, but it also runs 10 degrees hotter which is not worth it in my use case, I don't want a space heater in the summer. If the 4060 can already do 60fps at 1080p, that's good enough for me (that's all my display is anyway), the pros and cons of this card weigh out the pros and cons of AMD for me easy.
@@NaturalHalflingthis is what I find baffling like everyone says amd is cheaper and more consumer friendly but in my region both ryzen and radeon always cost $20-100 more than their respective counterparts, the 4060 gets so much hate but it's power efficient and I managed to snag it at only $200
AMD is just as greedy, so browse by model + price not brand y'all
Feel like Nvidia at this point is just trying to make rtx 4070 and 4070ti look better options at their price...
I mean if they make 40XX to 4080 (Ti) look bad, the 4090 it is :D
4070 wasn't as terrible as it was. The rest of the lineup is just terrible.
@@elirantuil5003 Yeah the 4070 is still capable at 1440p with path tracing enabled (DLSS Q + FG)
@@TheFalseShepphard I mean the need of DLSS is kinda sad, it should be the cherry on top and not the difference of playable and unplayable.
I just got a second hand Rx 6700xt for £225 coming in the mail, hopefully it's alright, same 12gb vram as 4070 at almost a third of the price
I'm actually very impressed by the new architecture.
Nvidia's GPUs get so much better with each generation that they'll soon have to reduce the memory bandwith to a few kilobytes if they want to keep on delivering about the same performance as the 2060.
Under rated comment
Sarcasm so thick and spicy you could use it as BBQ sauce.
rtx 5000 will have a negative bus width that breaks the laws of physics
@@RANDOMNATION907Ada is a massive architectural improvement tho
@@tyre1337 RTX 6xxx will be just a cosmetic, 7xxx will reduce the performance of other components and 8xxx straight up sets your PSU on fire.
Thank you Nvidia, very cool.
I just upgraded to a 4060 (and a whole new PC to boot). Coming from a Haswell-generation i7 that originally had a GTX 770, upgraded midlife to a GTX 1060. Only been playing with my 12th gen i7 and 4060 for a few days but i'm pleasantly impressed. Much faster then my old set up. I understand people being upset its not a substantial upgrade from the 3060, but who upgrades their GPU every cycle? Coming from an older card its fantastic.
Same. The card is overpriced (but so are all of them) and has lacking RAM (but again, so are most of the Nvidia ones), but it is still pretty decent for people willing to use upscaling, frame generation and sensible settings.
It’s good to see how does the 4060 perform against the 2060 and I’m really surprised that the gap isn’t all that large.
yeh im shocked aswell 6700xt/6750xt/6800xt all seem better options
6700xt is enough of a comparison, maybe 6800 used (if anyone is actually selling it, which i wouldn't). 6800 xt is utterly irrelevant here.
He should test it against super cheap 2nd hand Rx 5700xt, perf should be just 15% worse but at 30% of the cost.
WIth 8GB of VRAM, the 2060 Super would have been a better comparison. It would still get 60fps+ at 1080p high/ultra settings in all of these games. The 4060/4060ti offers higher frame rates at 1080p, but they don't really add much of a benefit in most scenarios. I'd happily take a 2060S for a fraction of the price.
It is a large gap, he's CPU bound here. You're just a pathetic lemming seeking out information that confirms what you want to beleive, you aren't "surprised" you're biased against new Nvidia cards.
While the pricing of the 4000 series is ridiculous and rightfully despised, I like that Nvidia is once again treating power efficiency seriously. I wonder if there's any chance for 4050 to be a new 75 watt card, with some models without a power connector. It's about time for 1650 to receive a proper successor.
There won't be a 4050, this 4060 is already using a smaller/different dye than the 4060ti, which is what the XX50 cards usually do, and the 60 and 60ti's share the same dye. Nvidia shuffled down their cards performance it seems. 4060 performing where we'd have expected a 4050, and the 4070 is where we'd have expected the 4060 to be.
This 4060 is the 4050.
I agree.. Power usage needs to go down. There should be some new options for 75Watt max..
this one should do 75w undervolted. rx6600 goes down to 80w. extra power connector is good to avoid frying of motherboard
It's not that impressive to have better efficiency with a new process and a flat performance target. Any regressions with those soft requirements would be an unmitigated disaster, AMD Bulldozer tier. What's really going on is that competition is so soft that there is no need to push clocks past the optimal curve in order to look better than the competition on benchmarks.
One thing I haven't come across with other youtube tech channels is testing this card on a PCI-e gen 3 motherboard so I'd definitely be interested in seeing how this card with an x8 connection fares against a 3060 with a x16 connector. See if it makes a difference.
Yeah I'm thinking of picking up a 3060/3060 ti for my pcie gen 3 mbo and I'm curious if it's even worth considering the 4060
I think i saw TechYesCity i belive make a video of the 4060ti comparing it's speed with pci-e gen 3 .If i remember correctly ,the performance hit was negligable ,you might wanna check it out .If he sees performance drop on the new 4060 at pci-e gen3 he may make a video about it too .
@@DiamondDepthYT get a 3060-ti, it's faster even in pcie 4.0
I'd say 3060 is actually better since the 4060 is only about 10% ahead but with less vram as an offset
Should be plenty considering an Rtx 4090 still runs fine on Pcie 3.0 x16
You'd think by now a mid range card would surpass a 2080 ti but here we are...
it's low end tho?
@@GewelReal2 generations later ffs
Foreal, even the 2060 was almost gtx 1080 performance. The 4060 vram gets gimped and barely reaches 3060ti performance
@@MandoMTL GTX 1050 doesn't have GTX 680 performance does it? 🤦
@@GewelReal The 1060 was on par with the 980...to call the 4060 a decent card when it can't even match a 3060 Ti is hilarious. Wake up and smell the roses.
If you are a budget gamer and want a strong 1080p card, the RTX 4060 is actually a good card to choose. It has support for DLSS 3.0, including frame generation. The entire 40 series is overpriced for what you're getting, but the 4060 happens to be the one card that actually is VERY competitive in what it offers for a 1080p gamer, and be honest, that is most of us.
If only it cost lesser because the price is too high though I think 4060 is a good card.
@@zilverman7820i agree
I have watched you since 5k subs... you never change, in terms of congeniality, calmness and polite presentation. I appreciate your channel! You and GreenhHamGaming are the real OGs...
This RTX 3060 v2 is looking dope
More like RTX 3060 V1.5 with less VRAM.
You V2 with less memory and better dlss yeah
@@DeadPhoenix86DP A polished 3060 8GB.. The thing that most of us do not even remember - or EVER want to be reminded of, but here we are.
it's worse than a 3060 in almost every aspect
more like v0.9
Just want to say the Skyrim test with unlocked frame rate is appreciated. It's a good way to know how much overhead there is for modding.
The problem I have with the 4060 is that it's effectively a 1080p card that offers frame rates that aren't required. While at the same time, being somewhat handicapped when it comes to higher resolutions due to the V-RAM limit. Making both the 4060 and 4060ti somewhat pointless. The 2060S can play most of the same games at 1080p High/Ultra with perfectly playable frame rates. The only downside with the regular 2060 is the 6GB of VRAM, but for just a little bit more, you get a good bump up in performance and 8GB of VRAM with the 2060S model. Which will play all of the games at 1080p that the 4060/4060ti can for a fraction of the price, still above 60fps.
4000 series is like paying for most broken Early Access games, but this time with the features that can't be utilized in intended use due small amount of VRAM and awful memory speed and narrow bus size that chokes those cards constantly. Mid end 5000 series should be much better GPUs, I hope they will get way more VRAM but also Rtx 4070/4070ti perf for below $400.
Happy that you’re getting companies sending over cards for review. Saves you the monetary fuss and provides everybody valuable information. Well deserved!
But then it cant be an independent review. You give a bad review and then they won't send you a card.
For the price i would not recommend this card, since the RX 6700 XT and RTX 3060Ti are better and (in my country) the same price..
The Frame-Gen is nice for older PC's . I hope we will get a Frame-Gen in FSR 3.0 which will support also "older" GPU's aswell. :D
Oh my sweet summer child
This is a terrible choice for older PCs because the reduced lanes would absolutely cripple a PCIe 3.0 interface.
@MyNameIsBucket look at the 6500xt, still even more of an absolute hot garbage than this though, power consumption is even roughly the same, but the X4 lanes on AMD is the most damning
It all good and all. But if you're a design student who uses creative software the 4060 is no brainer. In vray and blender workloads it is higher than 30% compared to 6700xt and 3060ti.
Numen and Lanite 🤣
Love the videos! Every 4060(Ti)/7600 review I watch makes me more and more happy with my 6750XT lol
I would love to see a video comparing PCIe 3.0 vs 4.0 with the 4060
No, PCIe 2.0 vs 4.0. E.g. test on the Xeon. I wonder if 2060 can give higher performance in some games (like The Last of Us) thanks to full 16 lines compared to 4060 on old PCIe 2.0. Based on my tests I can tell, that 1650 Super paired with i7-2600 can utilize PCIe 2.0 x16 bus on up to 70 % already while playing The Last Of Us on +-Medium settings w/High textures (30 FPS average, 20 lows, 50 tops).
Definitely worth it in a sale at $200
Yeah definitely, if the 4060 was at $200 it would be a solid option. But for $300, there are better options
@@Bdot888 I'm thinking of going 6700 XT...budget is £350...What dya rekon?
Just feel like new rtx 3060ti with gddr6x memory is a great card rn than anything else until we talk about AMD
Yeah that is a good card
Yeah I am still running an EVGA 2060 KO, only recently went to 1440p it still does well, I just cap framerates on many games to stop 2060 from running maxed out. Even though the 4060 ti is not received well I am probably going to get it over an AMD for the lower wattage and heat generation in my small gaming room.
I can absolutely see your point.
While I do not like the rtx 4060, it cannot be ignored that the efficiency gains and lower power requirements are quite attractive, especially for hotter regions of this planet.
@@BroBrian_ Indeed, price aside, 4000 series made good progress in power efficiency
I think in your case the 4060ti would be a solid upgrade over your 2060. Especially if power efficiency and cool temps is important to you
Video pacing felt a little rushed. It might be worth doing a mix of barcharts and footage. Great video, nonetheless.
Thanks for these reviews! This guy has to be the most underrated youtuber there is. Quality content and very enjoyable.
With how cut down this card is it seems like a 50 class
I want to see that frame gen on old pc but also i want to request if possible if you can get a 6700/6700xt and test it against the 4060 in the same old system
Good video. Looks like a good card to me, if you're upgrading for the first time in a few years and all you want is modern games running 60fps at 1080p then it's all you need. Made the decision to get it comparing the AMD equivalents and this one runs cooler and more efficiently at the cost of 10fps less than it's equivalents, but it's still over 60, and that's all I need.
Exactly. Everyone losing their shit over how terrible this card is needs to take a step back and think how ridiculous they sound. For a casual 1080p gamer this is a no brainer. I got a new one off ebay today for £240. And I'll probably get £80 for my gtx 1070. So £160 for a card that will do me for 5 years and uses very little power is fine by me.
@@BeatPoet67 Same here. It's also power efficient which most people overlooked at.
Loving the new format of multiple GPU comparisons, the content and production values just keep on getting better and better mate!! I think a little sideways chart/graph would be an excellent way to visualize the differences in framerates instead of the cold numbers. Kind of a show don't tell thing, people see more in one go as opposed to reading everything.
*Pats his 3060* Good girl. *fan takes a bite out of my finger*
Ah, Warthogs Legacy at 6:25.
😂
I can't wait to see the difference between 1070 vs 4060 somewhere on the internet soon:)
The 1070 is pretty old at this point but because of the larger memory bus width the card scales linearly with resolution. The 4060 performs ok-ish at 1080p but will struggle with the newest titles even at just 1440p. Super disappointing generation.
@@AnimeUniverseDE All the cards except the 4090, yeah.
@@AnimeUniverseDE Yeah it is dissapointing generation. I cant wait for 5000 series because this generation is focus more on power efficiency and 3000 series was more about performance. Hopefully 5000 series will combine both
Thank you so much. I am going to stick with my GTX 1080 for a while, keep money saved. I appreciate your content and efforts.
Something not covered by others and yet very interesting to many:
>>> How does the 4060 deal with 7-10 year old games at 4K in an otherwise somewhat modern PC? e.g. Ryzen 5 5600 based.
The 4060 absolutely sucks on everything above 1080p and you can egt a used 3060ti for better scaling with resolution. Nvidias move is definetly to put an artificial limit on resolution, since the average monitor resolution will go beyond 1080p in a few years, and then the customer shouldnt enjoy games anymore and should buy a new card.
I have a 1080ti and due to bandwidth and 11gb vram it doesnt care if textures and objects are on ultra settings, it's the light settings that just affect rasterization preformance, and thats okay, but I chuckle everytime when I see the 4060ti and 4070 numbers struggling artificially with 4k, and I am always surpised that it is not specifically pointed out from reviewers that AMD cards dont have the scaling problem, they just have raw performance, which usually scales good in resolution (except ofc for the bandwidth limited amd cards, but they're a no no anyway). It's just such a weird spot that when you have a 4k monitor now that it is more wise to buy a 3060ti/3070 than the more expensive 40 series options right now, and it's just weird how little love AMD cards still recieve, while the fps/$ value is just so much better.
@@Skukkix23 I agree but I think the 4060 is a very special case where the 4K problem becomes very obvious. With the other 40 series cards there's a strong argument that people would buy them for new(ish) games, stuff that's been released in the past 5 years or so. For this audience it's not that shocking that these cards don't do well in 4K. However, the 4060 is a very expensive thing for just modern 1080p gaming. It could be considered by patientgamers expecting it'll at least do 4K in seriously old games. Imagine their surprise when they'll discover there are alternatives that will do FAR better 4K in old games (where there's no DLSS or RT) for about the same $300. For patientgamers there is literally no reason whatsoever to buy NVIDIA.
@@desild5869 Dude, it can’t even do 1440p on Spider-Man

Yes, please.... would like to see older PC v newest PC comparison for the RTX 4060 especially PCIe 3.0 v PCIe4.0 comparison.... as my PC uses the older standard. Also interested in GTX 1070ti (my video card) v the RTX 4060, is the upgrade worth it? In light of vram limitations on both cards. I am trying to decide best upgrade path, but so far I haven't found the best one. I like Nvidia cards, but the low vram has me wondering what to do.
You will lost performance with this card. Buy 3060ti or Radeon 6700/6700xt
@@AuDiGo6 You are most likely correct. In fact, I believe the RX 6700 is probably the best bang for the buck choice. But there are other considerations, most important of which are my own biases. I don't want last gen old cards and I prefer NVIDIA.... so I are frozen on what I already own.... the GTX 1070ti. What I would like to see is a head-to-head comparison 1070ti vs 4060, so I can judge the value of the upgrade (to me).
Holy shit i love the performance of this 4030. Really nice
Correction: if I may, you seem to perhaps be confusing “DLSS” with “Frame Generation”… not a huge deal but I’d like to clarify it for you, friend;
DLSS is Deep Learning Super Sampling (NVIDIA), and is a suite of functions - one of which is how the video card actually renders the game at a lower resolution than the setting chosen in the game.
For example, if setting a game to 4k Resolution (2160p) and then [say, to improve performance because you have to] you turn on and configure DLSS to run at “Ultra Performance” - then you are actually telling the videocard to render the game at only 720p… and then it ‘stretches’ the image up to match your monitor’s resolution (or the chosen resolution you’ve set in the game’s options).
[This is known as Super Sampling]
Frame Generation, is how the videocard will ‘fake’ frames in-between other frames, ‘guessing’ at how the next shown frame will look, based on differences between two analyzed frames.
For example, if two frames look almost exactly the same, except for a tumbleweed that rolled and moved a bit in one direction, then the Frame Generation programming/code/instructions will analyze the differences, in this case find that only a few pixels changes for the tumbleweed in the middle - then it will actually use that information to ‘fake’ a frame in-between those two frames and use that, instead of actually rendering that in-between frame.
[“A.I.” is just programming, just typed code that the software runs, to analyze and then predict/fake the in-between frame]
Frame Generation (AMD has this too, called Fluid Motion Frames), actually HURTS performance always - as that extra calculation to do the generation, the 'faking of the frames in-between' takes time - and it causes LATENCY a.k.a. percieved delay, between human input (moving the mouse) and the results on the screen. Those “A.I. generated frames” (‘faked and estimated’) are not actually responding to the input from the player, they are more like static paintings on the screen, so they cannot be moved or changed by whatever the player does.
[NVIDIA has “Reflex” to try to combat this performance hit / latency from Frame Generation.
AMD has “Anti-Lag” to try combat this performance hit / latency from Fluid Motion Frames.]
To be fair, AMD has the exact same functions overall as DLSS - AMD calls them “FidelityFX”, and it is a suite of functions that are the exact same as NVIDIA’s “DLSS”.
For example, NVIDIA has Upscaling as part of “DLSS” (where the videocard renders only a small version of the actual game/frame, then stretches it up to match the desired resolution/display).
AMD has this and it is called “Super Resolution” (where the videocard does the same thing on an AMD GPU).
[In both cases (NVIDIA and AMD) an anti-aliasing effect slightly occurs during this Upscaling as well, which helps ‘get rid of the jaggies’ at the edge of shapes rendered]
I’ll stop there sorry lol...I’m just trying to help clear things up a bit, as it sounds like you are saying “Frame Generation” as though it helps performance, but Frame Generation actually hurts performance; it is the “Upscaling” part of DLSS (where the GPU renders the game at a smaller size then stretches it up to fit the screen) that actually improves performance (and the higher performance setting you choose, the smaller the game is actually rendered at before stretching it out).
HTH mate
I'd love to see a video about frame generation. I have an old cpu. I need to know if pairing this with an i3 6th gen is a good idea or not.
So it should be called a “4050” 🤦♀️
Every chip in the 40 range is the side down from the previous range. 115w
i was waiting for this review, luv your work man
why dont you try benchmarking gpus with monster hunter world iceborne? the game is more cpu demanding than gpu but it can put some gpus on its knees at max settings
Awesome video as always, congratulations. I would like to suggest adding Street Fighter 6 to the benchmark of the graphics cards. The game is new and it's kinda demanding to run the World Tour mode. You can use the Demo, it has the World Tour. Cheers
Just upgraded from a 1660-Ti to a 4060-Ti, couldn't be happier. FPS is a little higher than your reviews with the Ti version. If you do 1080p/1440p gaming it's a perfect budget card, but get the 16GB version if you want to do 4K (or a 4070).
wow i really think there was typo from nvidia everywhere regarding the RTX 4050 Ti.
Im a 2060 user this video was made for me
Hope those comparisons help :)
Yep it's help
It would be awesome if you could do a 2060 12gb video with some modern game benchmarks.
RTX 4060.... 32gb ram... Intel core i5-12400...
This is literally the pc im getting...
Finally a review made for normal people who don't want to spend 2000 $ on a GPU! I'm growing tired of all the PC "master race sweat lords" bragging about AMD's cards having more VRam. Or on how much more powerful the 4090, which almost needs its own power plant to function properly, is. Those cards are great, if you can afford them, but they consume way too much electricity for my own taste.
Off course the Nvidia 4060 is clearly overpriced and I know that I'm getting less value than with my good old 1060. Regarding 1440p performance, I don't think it is worth the cost of buying a new monitor anyway. This especially with affordable 4K configurations being one year away. I'll therefore stick to 1080p gaming for now and for those needs I feel like the 4060 is the perfect card.
i know that the 4060 and 4060 ti are a rip off for someone who wants to upgrade for 20 or 30 series but think of someone with a earlier Gens like 10 series i think it's more suitable for upgrade but that Vram Limit is Frustrating actually
As a 2060 owner, I think I'll be upgrading to a 5060 when they're out
Yeah will be a great upgrade I’m sure
dude's got "the summer bird" sound in the background
Great video, but the card is such a disappointment which I think most of us were sadly expecting at this point!
Definitely test it in an older PC! Maybe even on 1440p, since framegen should help with that
what strikes me most is how this card is on an X8 connector, so its a rare card for systems (mostly some workstations) that dont have a full x16 slot
I'd like to see the 2060super and 1080ti with drivers released before the next generation in games released before the 20 series launch vs 4060 and 7600 and 3060ti
Thanks for the review and other than frame gen and power consumption which are important for some people certainly 300USD is too much for an 8g GPU in 2023. If someone is fine with an 8g card and they want Nvidia the used 3060ti is the deal right now IMO. I am seeing them locally for 250 or even 240. Its a faster card , same vram , has more bandwidth and still has NVENC, DLSS an RT if anyone wants to mess with that.
The 2060 was one of my favorite gpus! I got one in 2020 right before the gpu market crashed, and used it until 2022. It treated me well at 1080p and its great to see it holding up well these days. I ended up upgrading to the 4070ti, but I gave my 2060 to my cousin who plays esports titles. So its still chugging along no problem
Dark blue color for fonts in the last segment was kinda hard for my eyes) But thx for the hard work!

Out of curiosity, what is your xeon build??? Im actually rocking one myself w an e5 2697v2 and w a 1080. Its a great system i built for super cheap. Also looking to upgrade soon though to a 13th gen intel cpu. Thoughts??
i love watching your videos it makes me calm
What’s the advice if you’re looking to got from the 2060 super to the 4060? I also need to upgrade my cpu. Is it be at to upgrade cpu first then gpu to avoid a bottleneck?
I have a 4060 on my gaming laptop paired with a 13500H, and 16 GB of DDR5. The performance is amazing, It can run just about ANYTHING.
Thanks for doing real world benchmarks, all the other reviews go for ultra settings, which no-one uses.
But his settings carefully masking the ugly face of the card. I'd say this isn't an optimized settings as much as it's a settings to mask Nvidia greed.
Did you do an analysis of the 4060 with older PCIe platforms, like Haswell, or other PCIe 3.0 lane platforms?
I don't understand why ppl shit so much on the 4060, of course if you a strong 30 series you won't be buying a budget 40 series, but if you want a good upgrade from an older gpu and don't wanna spend too much, this is incredible... especially if you don't want to upgrade your whole pc.
it's power efficient, it has access to newer software and drivers.
Just because it isn't a HUGE improvement from the 30's, it doesn't mean it's bad.
finally someone who uses his brain, im going to upgrade from i5 7400 1050ti and 16gb ram to i5 12400f rtx 4060 and 32gb ram, it's gonna do just fine for what i need.
@@sepimomane5158 I got this card as well, coming from GTX 1650. It isn't too bad as they make it seem to be.
awesome quality content ! Love it !
I've just bought myself the same specifications as you've done for 700$ ( in my country we have 30% tax on everything) so this clears a lot of shrouded mystery on this capture, thank you
@NguyenVu-dk3pv I believe so, in some games It might bottleneck at 118-120fps at 1440p because of the CPU, but mainly I've got the pc to play battlefields, battlebits, hitman series and more, I'll do a proper testing and reply here just to give some clarifications, there's quite some reviews with Harry Potter game with the same spec which got around 89-110fps with 4060, and 120-142 with a better cpu and memory, I believe you can pair it with a much better cpu if you can, however everything in my country is sold out from AMD
Answer this: i3 12100f + 4060 or ryzen 5500 + 6700xt or is it worth it to pump more money into cpu for i5 12400f or ryzen 5600?? And Why, thanks??
Great vid and yes do the frame gen thingy 😅
I pretty much enjoy reading the comments here; how people are looking into the positive than the negative, being optimistic than pessimistic, I never upgraded my pc for a decade (Two core duo with no GPU). I had no experience with pcs till in September 2023, where I begin to study more.
Nvidia is not quite telling the truth about power consumption. Igorslab has tested the card. The true power consumption is about 130 watts on average. The idle power consumption is also very high. This seems to be a driver problem.
Cinsidering the 4070 uses 8-12 watts idle it surely will be fixed
Great work as always
Is the old system PCIE 3.0? This card is 8x lanes just like with AMD's more budget range from the last gen and on so wondering if that would be a bottleneck in a older system with PCIE 3.0 compared to a nvidia from the prev gen or the intel cards which have 16 lanes.
I heavily doubt such a midrange card is really going to be a big problem for Pcie 2.0 x16/3.0 x8, but it'd be nice to have a comparison for sure although there should already be some good quality ones out there
I had to replace my dying 5700XT and after being sick of stability issues I really didn't want another AMD card which left the 4060 the only thing in my price range. While the performance is meh and definitely not an improvement over the 5700XT the one thing that has impressed me about this card is it's so power efficient and quiet. without a graphics card sounding like a jet engine during take off I can game without headphones on which is a massive quality of life improvement. I wish the performance and value were more of an upgrade from a card that cost me the same in 2019 but I will take quiet running and not crashing randomly over more frames.
Which would be better option rtx 3070 or rtx 4060ti? As I am thinking of upgrading after long years. Currently using gtx 1060.
Another great video keep up the great work 😃👍
You should upgrade your 12400F, it doesn't cut it for midrange and above cards
It is a cpu that midrange buyers would be using
Totally a midrange cpu my guy
gpu usage was 95%+ in all games, what are you talking about mate
@@tyre1337 3:27 90%, 5:45 82% 6:07 66% 7:14 80% 9:23 80% 13:30 83% 12:02 41% and this are only the figures on the recording footage, they might have dropped even lower in the respective benchmark run. 4.0GHz ain't gonna cut it in 2023.
@@samserious1337 esports and old games will have low gpu utilization regardless of cpu used, at HUNDREDS of frames per second you're more likely hitting game engine limitations than cpu limitations
Two video in one day awesome
I am a programmer and don’t really play games. I am getting a machine with this card, and I am looking forward to it.
It's nice that they sent you the card, but my goodness do Palit need to improve that logo...
Any chance you can test the gpu at PCIe 3.0?
I am curious about the performance as the 4060 is PCIe 4.0 **x8**
can you do benchmarks with the 10 year old pc? thnx, im thinking of upgrading my old potato with this card and not do a whole platform upgrade
The problem is the number on the card's name. Not even the price. The 1060 was 300 dollars but 300 dollar now it's like 200 back then, maybe less.
My question is who exactly is this card intended for? Adding a card like this to an older Skylake/Kaby Lake era CPU and PCIe3 motherboard is a complete waste of time and money, frame generation or not and I wouldn't even consider this card for a newer build. I have a Lenovo m910t from 2017 with an i5-7500, 16gb DDR4 2400mhz ram and PCIe3 paired with a AMD 6750 XT, which is roughly equal to this card. In every single benchmark the potato i5 is the bottleneck with the graphics card rarely using more than 100-150w and never getting a chance to raise its voice. Adding an i7-7700 did nothing to address the RAM and CPU bottleneck inherent in older pre-built motherboards. On the flip side Steve I'm really happy that the manufacturers are starting to pay attention to your channel and the massive work you've put into it through the years. Without a doubt your channel is my favorite old hardware in modern times comparison and I genuinely look forward to new postings.
some one whos looking to upgrade from a 1660 super to a 4060 is it a good idea currently the pricing for the 4060 in my country is good
I just bought one of these, upgrading from a 1660ti. For me it's a worthwhile upgrade.
2060 was actually the best price to performance card in the 2000 series. Pretty disappointing to see 4060's performance that close to the 2060
2070 super
For a build using used parts like I7 8700 ( non k) would this card be a good pair? 1080p only, I was thinking on having 2070 but the consumption is a bit high.
Yeah might see some cpu bottlenecks but good all round :)
Question:
Are you using DDR4 or DDR5 for this one?
What nobody mentions: No need to upgrade your PSU, it’s also 8-pin.
Hey man, can you please do some similar benchmarks with RTX 4060 and R7 3700X CPU or maybe the R5 3600?
The flowers in your yard look great bro
Saw that 4060 Cyberpunk preview notification :>
Always Great! Keep it up❤
Does the gpu sag? Cuz that pcie connector at the back is short.
seeing as this thing only gets maybe 10-20 frames more on average than my Strix 3060, i don’t see the need to upgrade. at least not yet. especially when it would be a downgrade in VRAM
yeah the 4050 is a nice... oh. it's a 4060... meh... Can't wait for the 720p card coming out.
am gonna buy this tomorrow, 4060 8gb. Am gaming on 1080p only and jkust want to upgrade from 1070.
Frame Generation is a game changer for Budget Builds, That being said this card is a travesty, Its a 4050ti at best and should be priced 30%-40% cheaper.
Belive me its not, at least in cp 2077. The visuals are so bad with it. Flickering everywhere and unstable picture
It is a game changer. Its pretty much free FPS for minimal resource.
@@BertieJasokie free fps for more input latency and Bad visuals is not free haha. i tried it on my 4070. If you get 40fps or less without it, dont even turn it on. Horrible.
@@theplayerofus319 Dude, budget gamers play on a much lower tier of cards. Sacrificing visual fidelity and resolution for playability. The slight input lag and visual glitches are not gonna stop us from using it. DLSS/FSR/XESS has been a saviour for us stuck on older systems.
@@BertieJasokie i use dlss/fsr too and its great, but Frame Generation just downgrades the game for me in too many ways, just saying. Doesnt mean you now cant use it 😅
Do you feel the latency increase with frame gen on? It is noticeable if you are not getting 60fps already…I can tell and it’s frustrating…
My big problem With FG is the visual downgrade. In cp 2077 its unusable for my 4070. Everything looks so weird. Bushes just fissle all the time like hell
Frame generation isn't a "get out of jail free card." It just makes your game look smooth. You're still gonna feel that low framerate if your real fps is low.
@@pengu6335 yup, that’s what I am saying to people but the Nvidia fanboys won’t or don’t know how to listen…
@@maddhatter0 Yeah, I don't get why there's such a big confusion with people thinking it gets rid of any bottlenecks. It does not.
