Thanks for the nice review. However, it would be nice to include some AMD GPUs and maybe even Arc A770 regardless of how they perform so we get an idea of how they hold up with current software.
tbh at least in Davinci i expect Intel to kick AMDs ass as they already do with their video-encoders. Its a shame how far behind AMD seems to be on an software level.

Great review! Let me throw this at you ... with the 40X cards lower the designation name by one and you have a better idea of the card. For instance, a 4070 TI is really a 4060 TI, A 4070 is a 4060 and the 4060 series is 4050 Ti and 4050 respectively. The bus speed gives it away.
As of today, the 3060 Ti sounds like the most reasonable cheap card for games. 4060 might be better in ray tracing, but games usually require combined performance, and that's why the 3060 Ti still beats the 4060 in games. And for a noticeably lower price.

A litte cuestion, what version of pugetbechmarck used for this video? Becuase in the video for the "rtx 3050" in premier pro is diferent result in the rtx 2060s, but in the rtx 3060 is de same, maybe you use a diferent version to bechmark o diferente premier pro and is better result, but in this case the result for de rtx 3060 should be better???
Same. I went from a 1660 super to my 4060ti 16gb and I have no complaints. It has handled everything I’ve thrown at it with no issues. I think the price hurts it’s a lot. But I got my 16gb for $399 brand new
The performance jump from 4060 to 4060 Ti 8GB doesn't justify the price difference. Now with 4060 Ti 16GB it's even worse when you're only getting extra 8GB VRAM with no raw performance boost. You better off buying the 4070 instead of 4060 Ti 16GB for better price to performance ratio or buy the 4060 if your budget is tight.
@craiver00 yeah but I’m not getting a 4070 for $400 and the performance jump isn’t worth the extra 3-400. It’s was my entry level first build so I wasn’t going crazy.
From the Benchmarks ive Seen, the 4060 ist better than the 3060. In Most cases the 4060 ist 10-20 frames faster in fullhd and uses less Power. Where the 3060 uses 170 Watts the 4060 uses 117 Watts.
This is bad, really bad. To me the only cards that make sense are the 4070 and upwards cards. This mid-low end gpus from nvidia are terrible. This is horrible. Not worth it.
Love your channel would have loved to see you attempt to use the 4060 to make one of your videos to give us a real world idea if the 4060 can handle your workload. How much longer it would take to render, etc.

Hi, I've been watching vidoes from your channel alot lately and need some advice. I'm a newish video editor and only doing so for the start of a new channel for youtube. However, I do want to future proof my purchases and would love your advice. Currently have a Intel 13700K, Asus Proart 760, 64gb DDR4 3600 ram and finally an nvidia 3050 I've had for 2 years. Wondering if I should upgrade to the 4060 TI (16GB) or a 3060 TI or 3070 or just keep the same card? Thoughts? Appreciate the feedback.
You are blaming it on the memory. That seems very common. imho it could have more to do with the amount of tensor cores 11:16 96 for 4060 vs. 272 for the 2060 series.
@@theTechNotice You were one of the few tech reviewers to actually point out some of the drawbacks of Apple "work smarter not harder" ideology. If I remember right, M1 Ultra was great at accelerated decoding and encoding, and some CPU and GPU effects. But some raw compute tasks like 3D rendering, noise reduction, and stabilization struggled on M1 Ultra. I am curious if these issues have been resolved, both for the M1 Ultra in software optimization or for the M2 Ultra hardware.
Thanks for the great review. I really don't understand what this thing is even for. Gaming in low watt hardly ever matter for gamers unless those who buys xx90 series. Budget-conscious creators don't want to waste money on paper weight that will get obsolete the moment they become creative. Heavily invested creators wouldn't even consider this card even as a backup.
@@kalb390 Most programs are just optimized for Nvidia, many dont even work with AMD and those which do often run poorly compared. And I still hear about instabilities for creators with Radeons
Personally I feel like AV1 is over rated at this point. The only place you can stream AV1 is on UA-cam. And UA-cam already accepts HEVC and higher bitrates to the point that AV1 vs HEVC makes no difference. I wouldn’t pay for a first gen AV1 encoder when it’s hardly an upgrade over existing and cheaper HEVC options. Maybe in the future when we get AV1 support on platforms that don’t support HEVC. And by then I would trust more mature generational gains on encoder efficiency.
CAN the RTX 4060 NON TI 8GB GPU handle AI instructions in adobe Lightroom and photoshop. i currently have the GFORCE GTX 1650 4GB RAM and its not really performing. i do a lot of picture editing.
If you are a creator go with the 4070.Gaming in 1080p or 1440p i just bought a RTX 4060 a XLR8 PNY 3 fans rgb and never gets above 60c and quiet really nice.
For those considering a buy within this budget, consider the power draw than the 3060. Yes, 3060 is cheaper, but it draws more power just to give a small bump in performance. I have 4060 for quite a while now and lucky to say I haven't had any issues editing 4K clips with it (consider the slower render than higher GPUs, but for the price, it's worth it). Like what he said, VRAM's gonna be your bottleneck. PS Not for Motion Designers and Animators, even on entry level unless it's just your hobby. Live preview will lag the hell out of you. PSS I haven't tried using 4k monitors yet. I only used 2 1080p monitor.
Damm, one of my concern is editing 4K video and i come from a GT640 lolol I thought by now the average new GPU will be ready for 4K editing without issues. I'm considering the 4060 Ti but do you feel the increase power draw is worth the slight performance increase?
@@humanshieldz hey I’m not sure about the Ti version but I believe most reviews refer to 4070 instead. Also, I had an upgrade to i9 14900k having the same 4060 (previously Ryzen 7 5700X). I noticed that, having SSD (separate M.2) for projects with 4K helped me stabilize the workflow. It seems to be bottleneck, but the only downside you’ll get is render speed (Final Output). I’ve set my Premiere to OpenCL (iGPU in i9) and everything, even if it’s 4 hours worth of footage, it’s smooth! My conclusion is, if you’re frustrated of having slow playback during editing, I would suggest you go high as possible on CPU than GPU. Most editors, idle their PC when rendering so upgrading GPU will costs lots of money for just saving minutes of render. Again, minutes of render. If you render 15 mins. for 45 mins output, maybe on higher GPU you can save 3-7 mins of render. That doesn’t makes sense blowing up same worth of money building an i9 build with mid tier GPU.
should I take the bigger vram for rendering? what I heard about is, the more vram you have , the more complex thing you can render or preview I'm confused about what to choose 3060 or 4060 for my first PC, I don't know if my needs require a large VRAM or greater performance than VRAM -gaming -blender I'm not in a problem with slower render time if it takes only 1-2 minute or 10% difference time if that is the only difference (time) but I don't know what's the difference for my activity 😅
Re Laptop vs desktop differences , Nvidia just shifted one tier when transposing the desktop card dies to laptop , ie a Laptop 4090 is actually a 4080 desktop die ( AD103 )and so on down the stack. this explains the difference you mentioned in encoders , there is no ad 102 ( desktop 4090 ) laptop
I'm getting the 4060 for my new PC as the 4070 is now out of my budget since the Israeli shekel started falling recently, is this card good for blender and UE5 and that kind of stuff?
The 4060 is still a better choice for 3d rendering though. Unless you are rendering highly complex scenarios with 4k textures then 8gb will be fine and It makes no sense to get a card that is more than 30% slower to render.
I think all 3D artist freelancers out there would absolutely love 4060 performance card (no, serious, it's good enough for real time render preview - 3060 already was and we were getting by on older Titans for years before hand), with 16-24gb memory and reasonable pricing but it won't happen unfortunately. 4060 16GB pricing is unfortunately asinine, as is VRAM capacity on any NVidia GPU under 3090/4080...
Once nVidia moves to GDDR7 vram and they include 2x to 3x more L2 cache in the upcoming 50 series a 128 bit bus won't be such a bottleneck as it is now. Even with a 128 bit bus you can still expect 400GB/s to 500GB/s in raw bandwidth and effective bandwidth will be around 1,000GB/s due to the increased L2 cache at 1080p and 1440p resolutions. What kills the 4060 is the slower GDDR6 memory, it would have outperformed a 3060 in content creation if it had the much faster GDDR6X vram.
8 gb of vram??? come on, now .... should be at least 12 gb, we are seeing games that are taking nearly 16 gbs on high settings and the trend is only going upwards
Thanks for those reviews, as a creator I can never figure out how good/bad a gpu is watching all those big UA-cam channel reviews. For instance I would never have thought that the 4060 was THAT bad compared to a poor 2060s.. I work currently with a 2080 and it makes me believe that this Gen is not the right one to upgrade at all. I wish you'd include some amd and Intel cards in the mix though.. While they're not supported for stuff like stable diffusion, they still can do quite a bit of lift This 40 series is really doomed.
depends really, if you have a small pc / weak psu 4060 is a no brainer. if you want to game and maybe stream ur games to ur friends over discord, again, it's a no brainer. 4060 is a lot more future proof due to frame gen and better dlss support down the line due to hardware differences. edit: im not defending nvidia, just saying that the 4060 is nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. here in my country it's 20 eur cheaper than the 7600. 4060 is just outright better with much better upscaling software and dlss actually functions well with low end hardware. keep in mind it can run path tracing in cyberpunk with dlss quality at 60-70 fps, around 100 with frame gen with like 45ms input latency which is imo worth it if you have a high refresh rate monitor. if you want new entry level 4060 is your only option.
@@plasmahvh the issue is the pricing. At its current prices, the 4060 simply doesn't cut it. For gaming it's not a match for the 6700XT. In jobs requiring more VRAM it's not a match for the 3060 12GB. If you want new entry level, your option should be the 3060 12GB or the 6700XT- depending on your needs, either will serve you better, be more future proof, and leave you more pocket change for an upgrade down the road.
@@eggtarts286 "be more future proof" all 3 of these gpus will be struggling to run medium settings at 1080p next year. and at that point medium settings will be 6-7GB of VRAM. the only advantage 3060 and 6700xt have is that they will be able to put textures to high and thats it. if u want future proof 1080p get a 4070 / 6800/xt / 7800xt
The only problem with both the RTX 4060 and 4060Ti GPUs is that it has 8GB of VRAM which is less compared to the 12GB of VRAM used by the RTX 3060. The good thing is that both the RTX 4060 and 4060Ti support DLSS 3.5 which is used to improve framerate a lot. (I wanted 12GB of VRAM, so for my Gaming Rig, I went for the RTX 3060) If you want more VRAM, go for the RTX 3060, or if you want to take advantage of DLSS 3.5, then go for the RTX 4060 or 4060Ti.
@@PradeepKumar-tq4ev 3060 12GB for 4K video editing because since it has more VRAM, it will be able to handle large 4K video files better than the 4060/4060Ti 8GB.

AMDs Radeon RX 7600 & Intels Arc A770 beat the 4060 for a lower price. Why do so many tech UA-camrs forget to mention that when comparing price/performance?
8 GB is not very small when it is necessary to render 4k video and when the 13th generation processor helps and when memory can be added up to 64 GB, it's just nvidia has reduced the size of the PC and the trend is towards this
Ok, really good information about a mediocre card. Price not withstanding, would a 4060.TI.16gb have any redeeming qualities? Anyway, off to find your AV1 video....
16GB will give nothing to 4060ti in video editing. The real deal here is memory bus and bandwidth. 4060ti 16GB still has the same 128bit memory bus, so it's still worse than 2060s and 3060ti with 8GB in video editing😂 Useless GPU for creators, no matter how much GBs of VRAM it has.
WTF is going on? Here in NZ the only 3060 that can be had is 8GB and it's memory bus is 128bit. Same with the TI (8GB and 128) and same with 4060 TI, which is costing $NZ750 and up. 4090 is like $NZ3,500 - $NZ4,000! Like with so many things these days, I think there are games being played here and I feel like a pawn! They only have silicon for AI and Blackwell I guess is part of it... But even the 40 series seems all skewed in some bizarre way. Is it a money grab?

From the Benchmarks ive Seen, the 4060 ist better than the 3060. In Most cases the 4060 ist 10-20 frames faster in fullhd and uses less Power. Where the 3060 uses 170 Watts the 4060 uses 117 Watts.
I wish you added the 3050 and 3060ti into this comparison
This is bad, really bad. To me the only cards that make sense are the 4070 and upwards cards. This mid-low end gpus from nvidia are terrible. This is horrible. Not worth it.
Playing cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p max settings 80 fps is considered a mid end GPU?
@@RainCloudVideos What part of "for Creators" did you not understand?
The more you buy, the more you save
Love your channel would have loved to see you attempt to use the 4060 to make one of your videos to give us a real world idea if the 4060 can handle your workload. How much longer it would take to render, etc.
any benchmark on the 16gb version?
Game pass games optimised?
I would have preferred to see the 3060 ti in the mix vs the 2060s
I wish people would stop calling it a 4060 and call it a 4050 pretending to be a 60 series card, that is why it sucks.
Thanks for the benchmark it's Always a pleasure to visit your Channel. Looks like NVIDIA won't be selling much 4060

where is the 4060 ti 16 gb review coming?????
Hi, I've been watching vidoes from your channel alot lately and need some advice. I'm a newish video editor and only doing so for the start of a new channel for youtube. However, I do want to future proof my purchases and would love your advice. Currently have a Intel 13700K, Asus Proart 760, 64gb DDR4 3600 ram and finally an nvidia 3050 I've had for 2 years. Wondering if I should upgrade to the 4060 TI (16GB) or a 3060 TI or 3070 or just keep the same card? Thoughts? Appreciate the feedback.
Which one did u buy
what do they create?
You are blaming it on the memory.
That seems very common.
imho it could have more to do with the amount of tensor cores 11:16
96 for 4060 vs. 272 for the 2060 series.
how does it compare to 3060 ti?
I AM BUILDING NEW PC PLS TELL WHAT I HAVE TO TAKE 4060 OR 3060 i am very confused
WHAT DID YOU PEAK ?
Are you going to test the M2 ultra?
Should I?
@@theTechNotice You were one of the few tech reviewers to actually point out some of the drawbacks of Apple "work smarter not harder" ideology. If I remember right, M1 Ultra was great at accelerated decoding and encoding, and some CPU and GPU effects. But some raw compute tasks like 3D rendering, noise reduction, and stabilization struggled on M1 Ultra. I am curious if these issues have been resolved, both for the M1 Ultra in software optimization or for the M2 Ultra hardware.
Thanks for the great review. I really don't understand what this thing is even for. Gaming in low watt hardly ever matter for gamers unless those who buys xx90 series. Budget-conscious creators don't want to waste money on paper weight that will get obsolete the moment they become creative. Heavily invested creators wouldn't even consider this card even as a backup.
im waiting for 16gb version before decide which to pick
might just get 4070 instead.
3:04 wrong. RTX 3060 has 112 tensor cores, not 48.
6:40 how the f 2060S is faster than 4060???? Pure joke from Nvidia.
How would it compare to 6900xt?
This seems to really be a 4050 TI.
Same in the gaming reviews. What has AMD got to offer around the similar prices for creators?
@Tech Notice - What should i buy: RTX 3060ti or rtx 4060? For Photoshop and video editing? Maybe should i go for rtx 3070?
I'm so glad to have my 4070 now. Seems to be the best in 4th gen, if you're not a billionaire
Why not opt for AMD in the first place ?
@@svudget9533 terrible for most creators, especially at 600 bucks

@@kalb390 Most programs are just optimized for Nvidia, many dont even work with AMD and those which do often run poorly compared. And I still hear about instabilities for creators with Radeons
@@froznfire9531 good to know
so, for simple video editing, 3060 is better than 4060, right? also the price.. opinions?
Personally I feel like AV1 is over rated at this point. The only place you can stream AV1 is on UA-cam. And UA-cam already accepts HEVC and higher bitrates to the point that AV1 vs HEVC makes no difference. I wouldn’t pay for a first gen AV1 encoder when it’s hardly an upgrade over existing and cheaper HEVC options.
Maybe in the future when we get AV1 support on platforms that don’t support HEVC. And by then I would trust more mature generational gains on encoder efficiency.
CAN the RTX 4060 NON TI 8GB GPU handle AI instructions in adobe Lightroom and photoshop.
i currently have the GFORCE GTX 1650 4GB RAM and its not really performing.
i do a lot of picture editing.
yes. I'm from 1650 too. Worth it.
Price to performance I think I will go with the 2060S or 2070 I can find them used dirt cheap where I’m from.
i5 13400f 4060 can ran with 450w
RTX 3060 (170-200watt)
RTX 4060 (100-110watt)
in the long-term I think 4060 is worth than 3060 especially heavy users
Heavy users don't buy the trash like 4060😂 They buy 4090😎
How is it so much lower than msrp
Bought the 3060 12gb simply because of the 12gb vram... I'm using it for Stable Diffusion AI image generator and it is so vram hungry...
I did the same. Did it work well for you?
If you are a creator go with the 4070.Gaming in 1080p or 1440p i just bought a RTX 4060 a XLR8 PNY 3 fans rgb and never gets above 60c and quiet really nice.
So it's the ××7 card .
That number is always reserved for ××50 gpus.
The rtx 4060 is actually rtx 4050
For those considering a buy within this budget, consider the power draw than the 3060. Yes, 3060 is cheaper, but it draws more power just to give a small bump in performance. I have 4060 for quite a while now and lucky to say I haven't had any issues editing 4K clips with it (consider the slower render than higher GPUs, but for the price, it's worth it). Like what he said, VRAM's gonna be your bottleneck. PS Not for Motion Designers and Animators, even on entry level unless it's just your hobby. Live preview will lag the hell out of you. PSS I haven't tried using 4k monitors yet. I only used 2 1080p monitor.
Damm, one of my concern is editing 4K video and i come from a GT640 lolol I thought by now the average new GPU will be ready for 4K editing without issues. I'm considering the 4060 Ti but do you feel the increase power draw is worth the slight performance increase?
@@humanshieldz hey I’m not sure about the Ti version but I believe most reviews refer to 4070 instead. Also, I had an upgrade to i9 14900k having the same 4060 (previously Ryzen 7 5700X). I noticed that, having SSD (separate M.2) for projects with 4K helped me stabilize the workflow. It seems to be bottleneck, but the only downside you’ll get is render speed (Final Output). I’ve set my Premiere to OpenCL (iGPU in i9) and everything, even if it’s 4 hours worth of footage, it’s smooth!
My conclusion is, if you’re frustrated of having slow playback during editing, I would suggest you go high as possible on CPU than GPU. Most editors, idle their PC when rendering so upgrading GPU will costs lots of money for just saving minutes of render. Again, minutes of render. If you render 15 mins. for 45 mins output, maybe on higher GPU you can save 3-7 mins of render. That doesn’t makes sense blowing up same worth of money building an i9 build with mid tier GPU.
Also, I have 2x M.2. 1 for OS, Apps, etc. And another for Project and Assets only.
should I take the bigger vram for rendering?
what I heard about is, the more vram you have , the more complex thing you can render or preview
I'm confused about what to choose 3060 or 4060 for my first PC, I don't know if my needs require a large VRAM or greater performance than VRAM
-gaming
-blender
I'm not in a problem with slower render time if it takes only 1-2 minute or 10% difference time if that is the only difference (time)
but I don't know what's the difference for my activity 😅
Re Laptop vs desktop differences , Nvidia just shifted one tier when transposing the desktop card dies to laptop , ie a Laptop 4090 is actually a 4080 desktop die ( AD103 )and so on down the stack. this explains the difference you mentioned in encoders , there is no ad 102 ( desktop 4090 ) laptop
4060 gigabyte areo or asus dual ?
I'm getting the 4060 for my new PC as the 4070 is now out of my budget since the Israeli shekel started falling recently, is this card good for blender and UE5 and that kind of stuff?
The 4060 is still a better choice for 3d rendering though. Unless you are rendering highly complex scenarios with 4k textures then 8gb will be fine and It makes no sense to get a card that is more than 30% slower to render.
I think all 3D artist freelancers out there would absolutely love 4060 performance card (no, serious, it's good enough for real time render preview - 3060 already was and we were getting by on older Titans for years before hand), with 16-24gb memory and reasonable pricing but it won't happen unfortunately. 4060 16GB pricing is unfortunately asinine, as is VRAM capacity on any NVidia GPU under 3090/4080...
Can you benchmark unreal 5?
Once nVidia moves to GDDR7 vram and they include 2x to 3x more L2 cache in the upcoming 50 series a 128 bit bus won't be such a bottleneck as it is now. Even with a 128 bit bus you can still expect 400GB/s to 500GB/s in raw bandwidth and effective bandwidth will be around 1,000GB/s due to the increased L2 cache at 1080p and 1440p resolutions. What kills the 4060 is the slower GDDR6 memory, it would have outperformed a 3060 in content creation if it had the much faster GDDR6X vram.
I mean. They could have just gave it more RAM. It’s not rocket science. Cards a turd.
@@beauneo The vram amount isn't the real problem with the card.
@@03chrisvit is one of the 2 main problems, bandwidth and memory
low bandwidth with limited memory is what made this card worse than a 2060super
8 gb of vram??? come on, now .... should be at least 12 gb, we are seeing games that are taking nearly 16 gbs on high settings and the trend is only going upwards
4060 is 115w? Are you sure nvidia didn't scam us and that is actually a 4050 with 4060 price!?
i am buying my first pc should i get the 3060 or 4060
What purpose are using ur pc. For editing means 3060 12gb is best than 4060
Thanks for those reviews, as a creator I can never figure out how good/bad a gpu is watching all those big UA-cam channel reviews. For instance I would never have thought that the 4060 was THAT bad compared to a poor 2060s..
I work currently with a 2080 and it makes me believe that this Gen is not the right one to upgrade at all.
I wish you'd include some amd and Intel cards in the mix though.. While they're not supported for stuff like stable diffusion, they still can do quite a bit of lift
This 40 series is really doomed.
depends really, if you have a small pc / weak psu 4060 is a no brainer. if you want to game and maybe stream ur games to ur friends over discord, again, it's a no brainer. 4060 is a lot more future proof due to frame gen and better dlss support down the line due to hardware differences.
edit: im not defending nvidia, just saying that the 4060 is nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. here in my country it's 20 eur cheaper than the 7600. 4060 is just outright better with much better upscaling software and dlss actually functions well with low end hardware. keep in mind it can run path tracing in cyberpunk with dlss quality at 60-70 fps, around 100 with frame gen with like 45ms input latency which is imo worth it if you have a high refresh rate monitor. if you want new entry level 4060 is your only option.
@@plasmahvh the issue is the pricing. At its current prices, the 4060 simply doesn't cut it. For gaming it's not a match for the 6700XT. In jobs requiring more VRAM it's not a match for the 3060 12GB. If you want new entry level, your option should be the 3060 12GB or the 6700XT- depending on your needs, either will serve you better, be more future proof, and leave you more pocket change for an upgrade down the road.
@@eggtarts286 "be more future proof" all 3 of these gpus will be struggling to run medium settings at 1080p next year. and at that point medium settings will be 6-7GB of VRAM. the only advantage 3060 and 6700xt have is that they will be able to put textures to high and thats it. if u want future proof 1080p get a 4070 / 6800/xt / 7800xt
The only problem with both the RTX 4060 and 4060Ti GPUs is that it has 8GB of VRAM which is less compared to the 12GB of VRAM used by the RTX 3060. The good thing is that both the RTX 4060 and 4060Ti support DLSS 3.5 which is used to improve framerate a lot. (I wanted 12GB of VRAM, so for my Gaming Rig, I went for the RTX 3060)
If you want more VRAM, go for the RTX 3060, or if you want to take advantage of DLSS 3.5, then go for the RTX 4060 or 4060Ti.

@@PradeepKumar-tq4ev 3060 12GB for 4K video editing because since it has more VRAM, it will be able to handle large 4K video files better than the 4060/4060Ti 8GB. However, if you want more gaming performance, then go for the 4060/4060Ti 8GB but it may not be as good as the 3060 for heavy 4K editing.

For the RTX 3060, go for Core i5 12th, 13th or 14th generation (either F or non-F) or go for the R5 5600/5600X or R5 7600/7600X
For i9-13900K, go for the RTX 4090
For the RTX 4070, go for Core i7 12th, 13th or 14th Gen (either F or non-F) or go for the Ryzen 7 5800/5800X or 7800/7800X
For 2K monitors, go for 27 inches and for 4K monitors, go for 32 inches
Which is good for creators? 6700XT or RTX 4060? I'll use stable diffusion, blender cycles, daz3d iray, unreal engine etc. And do I need 12 GB of vram at least?
If you need 12gb get the rtx 3060 12bg it's cheap now. Rx 6700 xt is good for gaming but if you need a card mainly for productivity Rtx 3060 is good enogh.
Go with 3060 12gb, especially daz3d. Or 4060 since its only 115w & can save you some electricity $ .
take rtx3060ti, the buswidth and bandwidth are very important for producing
it's only 280$ now

the only 4060 that makes sense is the Gigabyte low profile one for smaller/lower powered setups.

man, what a great video!!!, pls do the same with the 4070, im thinking about buy it, instead the 3070, on prime week i have to decide between the 2 options hhahaha
thank you for at least mentioning the pcie 3.0 limitations.....everyone seems to skip over this
isnt it just about 3 percent better than a 3070ti?
what about 4060 ti 16 gb
⚠️ What would be an RTX 4070ti for content creators, since it is an excellent card for gaming too ? ❤
Wow you say it’s not good cuz it renders 5 seconds slower …lol…and in games is much better than the 3060 at much lower tdp…cyberpunk2077 runs flawlessly and that game is very demanding…1080p ultra RT On u get stable 60 fps ez with dlss quality…so I say it’s a very good card the 4060
AMDs Radeon RX 7600 & Intels Arc A770 beat the 4060 for a lower price. Why do so many tech UA-camrs forget to mention that when comparing price/performance?
8 GB is not very small when it is necessary to render 4k video and when the 13th generation processor helps and when memory can be added up to 64 GB, it's just nvidia has reduced the size of the PC and the trend is towards this
Can you explain what the 13th gen CPU can do with the GPU ram?

Ok, really good information about a mediocre card. Price not withstanding, would a 4060.TI.16gb have any redeeming qualities? Anyway, off to find your AV1 video....
16GB will give nothing to 4060ti in video editing. The real deal here is memory bus and bandwidth. 4060ti 16GB still has the same 128bit memory bus, so it's still worse than 2060s and 3060ti with 8GB in video editing😂
Useless GPU for creators, no matter how much GBs of VRAM it has.
WTF is going on? Here in NZ the only 3060 that can be had is 8GB and it's memory bus is 128bit. Same with the TI (8GB and 128) and same with 4060 TI, which is costing $NZ750 and up. 4090 is like $NZ3,500 - $NZ4,000!
Like with so many things these days, I think there are games being played here and I feel like a pawn! They only have silicon for AI and Blackwell I guess is part of it... But even the 40 series seems all skewed in some bizarre way. Is it a money grab?
well most of my works are related to 3d (i use blender) so 4060 is for me
