what will last longer?

[trapsy]

i almost completed building my pc. just stuck in what GPU should i get. i game at 1080p and stream on fb sometimes

pc specs-

ryzen 5 3600

16 gb 3200 mhz ddr4 ram

cooler master mwe 650 watt psu

my question is which GPU will last longer (which gpu will allow me to play games at 40 fps minimum after 3 years) the 8 gb 3060ti or the 12 gb 3060?

long story short when i am gaming at 1080p which should i go for- video memory or cuda cores for so called future proofing? (8 gb 3060 ti has 4864 cuda cores while the 12 gb 3060 would come with 3840 cuda cores)

i regret buying the 4gb gtx 1050ti over the 3gb gtx 1060 3 years back

Oh boy, busting out the crystal ball again:

 

 

Wait, I think I see something:

 

 

Well, not sure how my crystal ball turned into a fortune cookie but they're equally good at telling the future. Though, the cookie has a point. Buy the graphics card that's better now because NOBODY can say what 3 years from now will look like.

just look at cyberpunk, doesn't even use that much vram, but sure can use more horsepower from the 3060ti

The 8gb 3060ti should be fine. At 1080p most games use under that anyway.

 

Cyberpunk is really badly optimised right now. The drivers are not optimised and the game is not either. I swear WWZ or TOW look much better bur runs around 100fps on max settings compared to 60 at cyperbunk on my pc.

just buy the stuff and be happy now instead of waiting and worrying about the crystal ball

thank you all
i too wanted the 3060 ti but got confused when i saw the 3060 12 gb.
