Behave, that's not what I said at all (I said nothing about b grade)It's is a little funny that the mods calls OCUK B Grade a waste of money
Maybe you should have bought a Zotac version brand new for £373 from a different website

Also, 'Wait for the next gen card' is usually terrible advice, putting aside not knowing exactly when they're coming out. If the next release is really good, it's a crazy scramble to get one and you could miss out. If the next release is crap, people rush to buy existing stock, so prices rise overall and you'll miss out and waste your time.
So teach him financial sense and don't front him money? Poor case if he can't wait 3 days
Fairly sure it didn't just stop working - aside from a couple of edge cases then almost all games work fine, if somewhat slowly with 8gb. Turning off ray tracing would no doubt be a start.
Not trolling, just trying to point out one bad decision after another
So why not put your birthday money towards whatever he had and get an even better card?
he could have waited 3 days, I just saw the B grade for £50 off what he would have been spending after those 3 days and jumped on it before it getting bought by someone else, or is saving £50 poor "financial sense", what planet are you on? grow up, as explained he got the 4060 when he needed a tide over gpu and the 5060ti to carry on playing his favourite game, all for a total of £600, wow, what a financial knob he has been! if only I had taught him to hold onto money, waiting for an unspecified launch date /price series 5 gpu, instead of making his PC work, instead of buying a cheap, around black friday deal gpu, that has almost lasted him a year, who wants a working PC right? only you nerds!
It is though for a 9070 non xt new which I’m pretty sure batters the 5060ti.That's not enough for a 2nd hand 9070XT, let alone a new one
It’s not poor financial sense but it’s not great either. Ultimately irrespective of what it’s replacing t’s not the great deal you think it is.
how do you do that if you don't have the cash for a big upgrade, and the card is not even released yet?
that's a load of old balls, and you know it is, I never suggested that it was a great deal, he was going to spend £400 on a 5060ti, but I saved him £50, or are you in the, he should have got a 9060 camp even though it is the worse gaming card? lol
the gains aren't massive, except for the PUBG results getting higher fps at a higher setting, as mentioned, pubg must be well optimised for DLSS4
It's a 5060 Ti 16Gb, not a 5060. It's more than 40% faster than a 4060 with double the VRAM. Hardly a small upgrade.
It's also a gift for his son, believing OCUK B Grade to be a good price (which everyone has ridiculed, btw) he saved his son £50. Rather than assume the OP is a moron, why not assume that he wanted it to be surprise and do something nice? 1) Selling the 4060 first might ruin the surprise, also 2) why are we assuming they don't intend to sell the 4060 and use the money for something else? maybe they don't want to spend £650 on a GPU regardless of where the money comes from?
"Absolutely correct"? 2nd value of a 4060 right now is approx £180-£190, after fees/postage let's say £170. £170 + £350 = £520 That's not enough for a 2nd hand 9070XT, let alone a new one
Apologies, but your post read to me like your were posting to highlight the great deal you nabbed. If that wasn’t the intention then I’ve misread it.
marvel rivals, literally would not even load the title screen any more, stating not enough Vram, nothing to do with settings try it if you like and see, it's free to play, this is at 1440p, you might have better luck at 1080p
Weird, I was playing that a couple of weeks back on my vega64 (which is on its last legs I might add, but the old girl has served me well so I can’t complain
)
for me, saving him £50 was a good deal, that is half a tank of fuel for some, or almost a chinese for three to others, to him that is a fortnight of bus fare, and food, or half a pair of trainers
update the game and try again, good luck.Weird, I was playing that a couple of weeks back on my vega64 (which is on its last legs I might add, but the old girl has served me well so I can’t complain
Edit: that’s on a 27inch 1440/144hz lg monitor.
Yup and that’s commendable but there were better savings to be had for little or likely no loss in performance - maybe in future post up in the general hardware section. If you ask a genuine question regarding a planned purchase/upgrade you will get all the advice you need.
I’ll give it a whirl tomorrow (edit: I mean later today, did not realise the time) - really just out of curiosity rather than anything else as it wasn’t really my cup of tea. Sadly at nearly 50 I don’t have the ‘wherewithal’ for games that like to get overly chaotic, confuddles my auld brain
look on the bright side, I bet you have use of both your legs, and both your arms, grandpaconfuddles my auld brain
