1080p gaming - 3060Ti or 3060?

My GPU failed me recently, wanting to buy one of the newly released nvidia cards. I game at 1080p and play everything ranging from triple A titles to indie games.

I vote 3060Ti if you can find one. We don't know for sure how the 3060 will perform but from the specs it's probably going to be quite a bit slower than the Ti version.

I’d go for a 3060 Ti. It’s equivalent to a 2080 Super whereas the 3060 is equivalent to a 2070 Super. The Ti will give you higher frames and better RT performance.

The Ti will likely be overkill for 1080p only. I would suggest a 3060 will be enough assuming you aren't using a 144hz or higher monitor.

If the 3060 tracks in terms of where it should fall in FPS, it would be the ideal 1080p card.  

 

The 2070/Super was previously a superb 1080p card, good for 1080p high refresh.  The 3060 should slot right in around the same spot roughly, for a cheaper price now (if MRSP cards ever become a thing again)

 

The 3060ti is on par with 2080 super.  No one ever needed a 2080 super for 1080p gaming.  It was a 1440p or above card.  It will certainly serve you well at 1080p, but you dont need a card that powerful for 1080p.
