Friend side grading from 3070 to 6700xt / arc a770

6700 XT all the way if he's really not content to stick with the 3070 and dial down settings. In the case of Resi 4 according to the TPU article it can handle around 60fps at up to 1440p with RT enabled, where the 3070 crashes and burns beyond 1080p at the settings they tested:

For some reason your TPU link there directs me to this page. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforc...ltiplane-overlay-is-causing-graphical-corrup/

I had to copy and paste the link to my browser to get this.

Bizarre, I copied that Nvidia link a good few weeks ago, and thought I had pasted the same TPU link twice when posting that.

Seems Nvidia are finding new ways to proliferate their branding!

8GB 3060ti v 12GB 6700xt, looks like the 6700xt at £370 (so similar to 3060ti FE price) is going to be more future proof,

Many people said two years ago, when these cards launched that eventually we'd get the AMD fine wine at the mid-range and here it is, there's never much between 6700xt, 3060ti and 3070 to begin with, now the VRAM chickens have come home to roost, a 6700XT makes more sense unless he wants to go up to 6800XT range, another card that's aged like vintage claret.

Likely getting pretty quiet from them vocal few. Cluck cluck.
