I know I've said you shouldn't buy a 4060ti at the MSRP but if it ever gets discounted and buying one actually makes sense then consider using my Amazon affiliate link - amzn.to/3OtPdxE
The GeForce RTX 4060ti has had a bit of a tough start. Not because it's a bad GPU, but because Nvidia in their infinite wisdom (cough greed) has set the MSRP at $400 U.S., which again wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing, but they only included 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM on the card! Yes, there is a 16GB version as well but it costs an additional $100 U.S. making it an equally terrible value. In this video we take a look as to whether 8GB of VRAM is enough to play VR games, and of course take a look at the kind of performance you can expect in VR if you choose to buy a 4060ti.

But What About VR? - Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060ti 8GB VR Performance Review - Ігри
Hey maraksot! I’m in the process of parting out a new pc right now, and your benchmarks have been very helpful. I was looking around some vr youtube channels, and I noticed a few people talking about the AMD FSR steamvr mod. In most of the tests I’ve seen, it almost cuts frametime in half! Would love to see some in depth testing with your format. Keep up the good work man
Awesome to see you testing more games! Because vr performance tends to not scale well between games this is really helpful!
Also im waiting to see if you make another video retesting the amd 7000 series gpus on the new drivers that supposedly fix the vr issues
This all the way!! I heard they fixed the driver issues over at the AMD side and I'm hoping that they're actually a good buy for VR now!
Reflection are always more demanding which why game devs use smoke and no mirrors .
I partially agree with your conclusion on the VRAM limitations of this GPU, but I believe the limitations you experienced are more linked to the VRAM bus width than the amount of VRAM sadly... the 4060ti has a 128 bit-bus, which can be really bad for higher resolutions. If this is the case, one can argue that not even the 16gb version of this card can be saved. I hope it is just a driver issue and it can be fixed down the road
Remember that the 45Fps drop that happens in the mirror and other heavy areas is due to oculus software doing the fps cap
turn off asynchronous spacewarp and instead of oculus caping the frame rate at 45 you will get about 55 to 60fps
dude big ups 💯🙏
I recently got into vr myself and i can confirm on oculus quest 2 (or similar) you really need to make use of the official debug tool that lets you change this setting and soo much more!
Without ASW games are much more playable when you are on the edge of performance but still manage it - its just too aggressive cutting fps in half for 5 seconds.
Whats as important as resolution or even more important is the bitrate which the oculus quest 2 for example streams onto the headset - around 350 mb/s is a good value - some even go to 450 for a more clear image.
@@FuriousDevihow do you change it???? I’ve been looking everywhere
I feel like the stutter is related with the gpu bandwith bc the 4060ti runs at 128 bits and has 8 pcie lanes instead of 16, and with low bandwith you may struggle on high resolutions
Do you have plans on doing a VR test for the 3070? I just ordered one today for my setup. :)
Hi, my Palit Nvidia Turbo RTX 3080ti with 12gb DDR6 RAM which supports the variable monitor framerate and runs at a 240fps, in my opinion seems to agree with what you are saying. With 32gb DDR4 RAM on the Asus ROG motherboard in my opinion it seems transferring the Graphics card RAM to the CPU may be less useful than linking it to the GPU in running games. What is your opinion please?
Great review!
Can you do a review about the amd Rx7600?
for a similar price range what GPU would you recommend instead?
You really need to try and bring FPSVR into your reviews. It will tell you exactly how much vram is being used just by looking at your wrist in game as well as other useful stats.
Still enjoy your content. 👍🏻
All my VR games stutter at 120 Hz, but none do at 90 Hz. I think it's an Oculus Link thing. Maybe it only happens on Windows 11? I'm on a 1080 ti (11 GB VRAM) btw
Thank you for this video. You are the only one showing this card for VR. Ive ordered the 4060ti 16gb. I feel its a good upgrade from a 2060 6gb. This was £30 more than a new 3060ti (£369) orginally £450. Was going to go with everyone saying go for 3060ti, 306012gb and those didnt seem like the upgrade i was looking for. Even in past post many people saying dont upgrade to 3060 from 2060 because no significant change. Now they say dont upgrade to 4060ti... I only play vr and i have a low budget to upgrade due to family life. So many contradictions online it almost makes you want to just shut off!
How is the card treating you? What kind of resolution and hz do you run it on?
I was never going to buy the 4060ti to begin with, but I do appreciate you giving me a look at what I would get if I did! I definitely won't be buying a GPU with anything less than 16GB of VRAM anymore.
Thanks for the review!!!
Do you plan reviewing the 4060TI 16GB once ot launches to compare how both perform in VR?
I'm really looking forward that one as it would probably better suit my budget
I'd definitely like to see if the additional VRAM makes a difference. But at the same time $500 for a '60 series GPU (even if it is a ti) is really hard for me to swallow.
Hey Bro, would you make a livestream test on youtube using av1 encode with FHD video resolution and bitrate at 6000kbps. Thank You 🙏🏻
Can you test The Walking Dead Saints and Sinners Retribution? It’s the second chapter of the series and although it’s optimization isn’t the best I still want to see it tested. I’ve been wanting a benchmark on it but I can’t find any on it
I use a 4060ti with a R7 5700x with a Rift CV1, and it was amazing. I beat Alyx on ultra, forgot the res but it was super sharp. I haven't had an issue running any game with it. Even in Kayak VR mirage it was a constant 90fps with a super high res. I say if you plan to use this with a CV1 or a Vive it's perfect.
I mean it better be, Rift CV1 and OG Vive are 7 year old 1200p headsets meant to run on a GTX 970 AT WORST.
@@sushiroles True, makes the 4060 ti a good option for me, at least. Lol
YOURE AMAZING THANK YOU!!!
VR legend!!
I am more waiting for the 16gb VRam version to see how it does , and to be honest there is no video card out yet to get the best out of VR yet .
hey man heard recently they fixed the vr performance in games for 7000 series amd cards (im not sure if that means every vr game) also looking forward to potentially a rx 7600 video if its true what a heard
Could you cover the 4060 ti with 16gb? I’m curious
hey man, the 7000 series got a drivers update! they fixed the VR performance alot! it should be so much better now. you should check it out :)
Thanks for checking in, I'm aware of the new driver and have been working on an updated video. It should be done this week. 😀👍🏼
Do one for 4060, 4070 and 4080 laptops please good sir
You should test the Rx 7000 GPUs again since they apparently fixed VR performance on the latest drivers.
Working on that right now. 😁👍🏼
can you do one on the 3060 12 gb
When rtx 4070?
Do you have a plan to review 4060 non Ti ? i confused which gpu should i buy in 2023
I may benchmark the 4060 at some point, but as of right now I do not have a plan to any time in the near future. My channel earns quite a bit less money than most people probably think and I buy all the GPU's I test with money the channel earns. I don't get any of them for free like the big tech reviewers do so I buy and test what I can when I can. I wish I could access and test every GPU as they come out but that's not where my channel is at currently. Maybe some day though.
@@Maraksot78 ohh ic", no problem ill wait for your next good content, good luck 💪
i bought the gygabite 4060 and it fits perfectly in my old 1080 setup
Do you think the 4060TI 8gb is worth it over a 3060TI? There's a $65 price difference.
I'm mainly going to be using it for simracing with a Quest 3 with link cable.
idk if this is still relevant to you but I can find 16gb models of the 4060ti for a little more so I'd recommend that
@@morongnew1166 I live in Australia and there's nearly a $200 price difference.
oh bloody hell just get the 8 gig model then @@37jw 😬🤣
i mean i can run all these games barely on my rx570 on the lowest settings and the 4060 is +169% better so this gpu should be insanely good at vr (obviously not the best gpu but should be good enough just lower your settings a bit if its to laggy)
I am surprised that it can run games that well, but will still wait new gen with more RAM. Anyway i dont have money now)
what about the RTX 4060ti 16 gb for VR??? is it a good choice??
Bought a 4060ti and all my games are running a lot smoother than before. I play games like Metal of honor above and beyond, No Mans Sky, VRChat, Borderland 2 VR, Hitman VR and many others. The performance is night and day from 2060 6gb. I believe ta equivalent toa 2080ti/3070. A lot of videos show same as a 3060ti but that was about the same as a 3070.
@@Jpwinks nice👌🏻👌🏻
Rtx 3060 mobile (6gb vram) it plays fine 😅
When you up the resolution then yes it will take more VRAM but there is no evidence on your part it's VRAM as VR games don't use much VRAM, it's clearly evident by the texture quality in VR games. You probably watch other video's on the card about VRAM limitation and foolishly applied it to VR.
so mostly for vr games it's a bad gpu, but for contractors is fine ?
The 4060ti is actually a good GPU, the problem is the price and the amount and speed of GDDR6 VRAM. It's just not a good value. If the price was $275 to $300, people would have less of a reason to hate on it. Only having 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM limits it especially when you're running at higher resolutions and/or high detail settings which is what you're doing in VR and in modern "flat" games. Looking at "flat" gaming reviews of the 4060ti coupled with my own findings, 8GB of VRAM with its current clock speeds/bus limitations just isn't good enough for modern games. If you turn the resolution and/or detail settings down, or in the case of VR turn the refresh rate/frame rate down, that reduces the amount of VRAM needed to run a game. So that's the beef most people have with the 4060ti, by only putting 8GB of VRAM on the card Nvidia has essentially kneecapped it, where it's not able to perform to it's full capability in a lot of games. And the $400 price tag just adds insult to injury.
Contractors just doesn't have as detailed/complex as textures as most of the other games I tested so it seems the 8GB of VRAM was just enough for that game to run 120HZ where as all the other games I tested it wasn't enough.
@@Maraksot78 yeah i heard about the price, that's why older gpu more interesting, but still the tech is newer and has av1 encode
Strange you're getting stutters on a 4060. Maybe it's the drivers.
it's a shit card is what it is.
b&snisnt that hard to run, i use a gtx 1050ti to play it
This card and its VRAM is plenty for VR. The 16GB is a complete waste of money.
Why say this is expensive
its literally $400
The ti is usually 500
where tf r u buying it @@aregulargenericname8794
Oculus software has and will continue to be trash, and not having a dedicated display port again always impacts on everything in the Oculus.......now fire up the index and watch how you should play games in VR with max performance and a ton of headroom....and that is on the RTX 4060.
You should try out the 3070ti in vr
Me playing vr with 2gb card and having 30 fps 🥲
The amount of Vram isnt the problem, the 4060ti has a garbage memory bus on x8 pcie, don't buy this shit..
This GPU is a waste of silicon at 400$
Get the normal Rtx 4060
@@VoodooYT222 Not a great deal either
@@gramostv_official i think it is but alr i see wat u mean but for games like Fortnite its very good
@@VoodooYT222 It's not about running games well, it's about value in comparison to the previous gen
@@gramostv_official289 for a great gameplay is a bargain
Such a handicapped card
This review does not tell us anything about its vr capabilities.
Vram can be seen trough afterburner overlays - which you did not do.
Futhermore no real vr games have been tested. There is no substance in this review - sadly.
What do you mean no "real ve game"?
