T.Graphics new now that prices have dropped a bit 3060/3070 Recommendations?

[D4MI4N.13]

Hello, good morning! How are you?

I bought a new computer from parts not long ago, I bought most of the parts from Coolmod, except for the T.Graphics that I bought from PCC for variety and a "better" price. I had to return both graphics cards I bought, bad luck that I got defective ones. I decided not to buy the same ones again.

1st - Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Ti V2 Dual MINI LHR 8GB GDDR6 -> It gave video problems in Shadow of the Tomb Raider and continued in other games...

2nd - Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Trinity OC LHR 8GB GDDR6X -> Excessive heating to the point of hanging or closing games...

They were going well, until they stopped going well and now I'm with the integrated one from the micro playing GTAV, although the image quality is not the same, of course :x

After meditating a little and that the budget has adjusted somewhat, I was thinking of one of these:

[link text]https://www.pccomponentes.com/tarjetas-graficas/geforce-rtx-3060-series/geforce-rtx-3070-series/nuevo?price_from=399&price_to=770(link url) Or do you recommend me to go for another one?

My budget is more or less about 660€, it could go up a little or even down if it's enough for me with less, paying to pay also no? Right?

By the way, I prefer one with 3 fans, especially for having plenty of space. And in theory it should cool better...

This is my games folder currently:

Thanks, goodbye!

Two graphics cards with faults or it's very bad luck or it could be something else...
Like F.A leaning towards a waterfall or the M.B.
And I take for granted that you are not one of those who lower GPU voltages, which is very useful.

I ruled out those problems because with my old graphics everything went perfect... Only that it has become limited.
Well in this case, you were wrong, I did undervolting to the Zotac and not even then was it fine, so back to normal.
The Asus didn't even need it, it was an ice cube, if it weren't for the video errors, I would have been satisfied.

At what resolution do you want to play? I understand that if you want an Nvidia it's because of the monitor or ray tracing, right?

P.d I personally would go for something around 12 gs because I'm good at holding components for a long time.
Big ass.

Hello!

ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQ1BR / WQHD 2560x1440 https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B08VS1FCZS/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Yes, for ray tracing among other things, I also got tired of AMD and miss Nvidia.
I'm waiting for new fans to continue using my VTX3D AMD Radeon R9 270x [X Edition] 2GB while I decide on a new T.Gráfica...
Isn't 12GB an overpriced cost that I might not take advantage of? Just asking, if it's within the price I can spend, then go ahead.
For example, I've seen that Control can consume more than 8GB of VRAM, but I don't even know what the game is about yet, nor have I looked into it.
I also take care of my computers, the previous one is from 2006 and now I've bought a new one, they can't get rich off me x'''D
Big ass? What? Your signature? Is that your name? :?

Thanks, best regards.

@d4mi4n-13
12 gs fit into your budget.
Games go as they go and each one asks for more resources to play at full capacity.
Therefore, as much as possible, I would try to get a graphics card as complete as possible, within certain margins... I'm not going to say that you get one for 24 gs because that already goes over budget and in the short term I don't think it's necessary, but maybe in 10 years yes, but since no one keeps a GPU for that long and every two years they increase the frequency, it would be throwing money away.
The thing about a big donkey...
It's a big donkey whether it walks or not.
Better to be well-off today than scarce tomorrow.

Hello!

To be honest, I have doubts. When you look at one with 12GB, the CUDA cores drop a lot and that "SO LOW" price makes me hesitate... They increase the Mhz and the data transfer memory (Only 1GB more) but they lower the CUDA and the data width.
At the end of the day, I don't know how this can affect you, playing and noticing it, is like taking a punch in the face for having spent "too little" xD

I've been looking again at the Asus DUAL GeForce RTX 3060 Ti V2 MINI OC Edition LHR 8GB GDDR6, right now there's a "supposed offer" for 539.89€ and it usually costs more than 600€. Except for the video failure, it performed well, it's just bad luck if it happens again.
Honestly, it was enough for me and I would have kept it if it hadn't had the problem. I paid 670.95€ for it. Right now, it would be a bargain, unless they're trying to sell the defective one I returned cheaper... It's not uncommon at PCC.

I've also been looking at the ASUS TUF Gaming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti V2 OC Edition on amazon for 675.11€ and if it doesn't work out, I'll return it if it doesn't give me the performance I want. If I'm not mistaken, it's like the big version of the MINI.

I'm hesitant to go down two steps having had a 3070 ti in my hands and seeing its good performance (Until it became a good heater for winter) but I had to return it anyway. I say 2 steps thinking about 3070 and 3070 ti.

Another option is to wait and see what happens with the prices, and go for a 3070 ti or 3080 or ti if there's a great offer... Anyway, if I get one of these two (For example) it will last me a few years and I'll be able to buy another one.

PD: It had been a long time since I heard that expression, I didn't even remember it hahaha

Thanks!!
