GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3060 EAGLE OC LHR 12GB
Yay or nay?

Give arguments.

[IkeaGnome]

For what use? What games? What work loads? What resolution and frame rate?

 

For me personally, no because it would be a massive downgrade.

For gaming, editing and slight programming. I would play vr games such as Half Life: Alyx, Bonelabs, Beat Saber, etc. As my budget for a pc is about 1500$ this is what I could find.

What region are you in? Pricing varies, but you could do a lot better than that for the budget in my area. At least a 6800 xt/ 3070 or 3080 would probably work with that budget.

I'm in Romania. The prices are very different

its a pretty ok card, depends on the rest of your system mainly cpu?

 

ps: post above is right btw, u could probably get a 3070/ti with 1500 ...
