RX6700XT v RX6750XT v RTX3060Ti

But your framerate is already dropping below 60. If you use settings that wont drop your framerates to 60, you won't have those issues will you?

Mid 50's at worst, occasionally.... come on. i won that 20 minute race... Its not hindering my performance and my GPU is also not a 3070Ti is it?

But my point is, I can make 8gb cry and ask for their mummy due to lack of vram, but not with actual settings I would use the card with. For example, plenty of games perform better in 4k with a 3060 12gb than with a 3060ti. Problem is, at that resolution with those settings both cards spit out 10 fps each, so does it actually matter in practice? No. Can you actually tell the difference if you drop the textures one click lower?

That's not an equivalence. Its a straw man.

All right ok....



If you ignore that warning message the game will eventually turn from a very good looking game to a very bad looking game, really horrible road-surface and missing textures in the folage.

Like this from one of my own.


No, this is not the only game my 8GB 2070 Super has problems with...

I played a few hundred hours of FH5 at launch on a 3070, Vega 64 and RX580 and don't remember an issue.

Did you read the rest of the reddit post.... which was timed about launch and before received one of many patches

Well, think about it logically. You have a 4 - almost 5 year old mid range card playing one of the prettyiest looking games at maxed out settings called by the developers as "extreme" and your complain is some textures don't load in quick enough. Do you see the problem? Lower textures one notch maybe?

You've posted some random couch potato's account disagreeing with the internet and the games own warmings about VRam and i'm supposed to do what with it?

In my search for a replacement GPU i have ruled the 3070 out absolutely, despite a near decade of being with Nvidia, can you see why?

Cause the 3070 isn't a big enough jump from a 2070 I assume? I wouldn't go from a 2070 to a 3070 even if the latter had 29 terabytes of ram, lol. I don't know man, I have a 3060ti with a 1440p ultrawide monitor, vram is the last of it's issues

But why? spend £600 and just turn some textures and settings down when your your VRAM starts conking out...

Makes more sense than buying a card with plenty of VRAM in the first place...

:)

Its 35% according to TPU, which for the money is not great but i also don't have the money to get anything better than that so right now i have the choice of 1 GPU and they are almost impossible to find.

So that isn't it, i wish the prices were better but it is what it is and we have no choice but to work with it if we want to upgrade, with that said i will not be buying another GPU i will have the same problems with, that's just rational common sense. So i would really like it if people stoped pushing people to blow £500 of thier own hard earned cash on a GPU and then get mad when others give them the information they need to make a properly informed decision.

35% isn't really upgrade worthy though.

Ive not seen any evidence whatsoever that 8gb isn't enough for 1440pp though. Especially considering I have such a card. I don't even know what does it even mean for 8gb not to be enough.


Here we see the 12gb 6700xt struggling at 1440p. Is a 6700xt not enough for 1440p? Of course it is. But with some games, youll need to drop a few settings to achieve 60, cause it's a midrange card. The same way, with the 3060ti you might need to drop some settings in some games. So...what's the issue?

Another game, same issue, 6700xt struggling at 1440p

Again not an equivalence. Even less so this time. And 6700XT's are not impossible to find.

The reply I posted got the joint highest upvotes in the reddit thread you linked.
The other reply with 8 upvotes said it was server side issues.
The 3rd highest upvote said it still used 7.5GB at 720p... so an optimisaton issue.
The 4th highest upvote agreed with multiplayer issues and said single player was fine.

You chose to include the random couch potato reddit post, I just highlighted the contemporaneous response.

A well optimised game should use all available VRAM for cache. I paid for the VRAM, game better use it.

I know it doesn't use 7.5GB at 1080P so i already know that's BS.

Im asking you, what do you mean when you say 8gb aren't enough? That you need to lower some settings I assume? Isn't that what you have to do regardless, even with the 12gb card?

I'm not keen on 12GB cards either, especially not when they cast £900.
 
You can find 6700xt and 6750xt for 400-450€ in europe, those have 12gb. But my question was, what exactly do you mean when you say 8gb aint enough?

Not interested. though if i get desperate...

Havent you been listening? Elaborate please.
