Likely so.
Not sure what's so surprising about this.
1060 was $300, 2060 was $350.
The name of the card has nothing to do with a market segment it is being sold in.

Eh, I don't disagree but I used to upgrade to a midrange card every 2-3 years. I agree they're too expensive, but I'm still rolling a 970 and it's been showing its age for a while now. I'd like to have something that can handle 1440p better, and there's just not a lot of options.
Honestly the crypto mining boom way back ruined the GPU pricing for good. Doubt we'll ever get back to those prices.
Eh it's in a non-windowed case and also an matx board in an atx case. Don't matter to me and actually most of it is necessary for the reach.
Atx board you wouldn't see any of that. Like I said it doesn't matter as It's not a windowed case.
I think people have been spoilt by tech youtubers. That's a perfectly fine cable job for a windowless case for sure.
Yep there actually are ties on pretty much everything. It's mainly just that it's a huge case with a tiny board. I also have a bunch of case fans which most people neglect because they're dumb. There's 2 more in the front besides the 240 rad and another one in the back you can't see in the pic. Enjoy your hot boxes. Whatevs.

My 4 year old 1070 runs most games above 70 or 80fps near ultra, don't scare the poor lad. New consoles might make games a bit more demanding but not by enough that you need to spend $600+ to be satisfied with 1080p performance. If anything i'd say that before considering RT, 1080p is pretty much killed with the 3070 and nothing will play below 100fps for years.
That's understandable. I'm in a worse situation, I have a 1050 Ti but I mostly play turn-based games and backlog stuff so I don't feel much pressure to upgrade yet. Ideally I'd like to upgrade once and be able to ride out the generation playing everything at 60 fps and reasonable settings but I just don't think that $400 for ballpark console performance is a good deal.
I think we'll have to wait until the next graphics card generation to know for sure. Usually the better-value cards arrive a year or so after a console launch (8800 GT, GTX 970).
Mid and low range cards tend to sell a lot more than high end cards, so it makes sense to have more supply. Card like the 3070 and up are only the cards that people tend to prefer in very niche enthusiast circles.
Hey I had the same cards.
Want to build a new Pc this year. But I think for the time being i will put the GTX970 in it. Wait until the new gen cards are better available and better priced.
I mean, he's also asking for 120fps. Without a VRR monitor, getting a stable 120 in non-multiplayer games is gonna require sacrifices. Settings or budget (or both going forward)
3060Ti uses the yield failures of the 3070 (difference of 5-10%) in order to avoid binning stuff.
Does that mean supply of the 3060ti will actually be the inverse of 3070 supply? If the yield failure rates are very high it means less 3070 stock but more 3060ti stock?
A 1060 6GB still works fine for VR on first generation headsets (OG Rift, Vive, Rift S etc.) without supersampling although if you're wanting to get the most out of an Index/Reverb G2/Quest 2 then you'll want a GPU upgrade.
Probably the 3060 Ti or 3070.
I'm using the fact t hat I game at !080p with a 9700K and RTX 2080 as a reference.
I mean yes, but they can still make 3060Tis without being failed yields from the 3070. It just means they are able to reuse some of the failed 3070s as a cheaper (and less powerful) card.
What I'll be going for since 3070s don't exist.
How does this compare to what's in the new consoles?

Should be equal or a bit above in normal circumstances, but much better than both consoles with RT and DLSS enabled.
I can only hope to get one. Needs to be in stock, within price exchange + import budget range, and the PC quick enough lol too many variables.
Gonna have better RT performance than either, massive gains in games with DLSS. Non rt/dlss situations should be a bit above current consoles.
Good to know. Equal or better than XSX is what I've been going for with my new build. Only need this one now.
Yup. People here might be biased since everyone and their mother here have a xx70/80/90 series card. But those cards aren't affordable for the masses.
Oh good. I might be able to snag one of these instead. I really don't care. I just need something to shove into this computer that's better than the 1070 I have.
It's a new arch with a whole slew of improvements. Why keep the old one then?
It's bonkers that in some benchmark results the 3060Ti can compete with the 3070.
