CS:GO at 144fps? Totally, go for it

CB2077 with the settings maxed? Good luck.


What framerate would you like to play games at, what resolution, and what games in general? That should give a much better idea that "will the 3060ti be enough for 4k gaming?"

As someone who is using 2080s (which is close enough to 3060ti) for 4k for quite some time i can tell - it is enough if you are not going for "everything on ultra". Because even stable 60FPS are not possible in modern games with "everything on ultra".

Everything is totally playable and fine as long as you are willing to make some compromises. If you are not IMO you should go for 3090 at this point...

at least 30 fps with high-ultra settings

If FS2020 and Cyberpunk are your goal for 4K, then a 3060 Ti is not enough. You will run into a vram limitation and performance will suffer.

 

An RTX 3080 should be the minimum for 4K gaming at high/very high/ultra settings.

Maybe at high frame rates on Modern Triple-AAA's, which isn't the rule, but the exception. A 3060ti can do a respectable job at a lot of games at 4k.

I've done some VRAM testing, and for 4K in FS2020, he's going to be bumping up against the 8GB VRAM limit. Same goes for Doom Eternal, which is 100% capable of playing 4K max settings at 100+ FPS, but it will be fully saturating the 8GB VRAM limit and it may cause stutter.

 

A 3060 Ti will require some settings to be reduced in almost all AAA games.
