        I’ve been meaning to upgrade but GPUs are stupid expensive where I live if you want something decent.

            Actually, despite all the negatives I’ve heard about the 4060 and 4060 Ti, I was looking into it recently and unless I’m mistaken they actually seem to have lower TDP compared to their 30X0 counterparts, while still offering slightly better performance.

            I think it’s a shame that that’s been drowned out by the negatives; few people ever mention TDP, but I think lowering the TDP while still having better performance is a noteworthy thing that should be mentioned more.

            EDIT: Went to look for some numbers and, according to NVIDIA, the TDP of the RTX 4060 and 4060 Ti is 115W and 160W respectively, whereas the numbers I found for the GTX 1060’s TDP are 120W.

              Thanks for the info, I never checked the specs of the newest gens due to the outragous price. Maybe I’ll find a cheap one in a few months
