And by going AMD you are already compromising on RT so the VRAM capacity for no comprises is a moot point to start with. If we are going back to talk about 1440p, 10-12GB isn't running out until next gen. Anything above 6700 XT will be fine.
Plus DLSS/FSR at quality setting is far from compromising, if anything the artificial portion of the tech helps on sharpness and binding issues. There are graphics settings have almost zero visual differences but very taxing on the GPU.
165 minimum 1% frames at 1080p in almost all games at ultra and 60 fps 1% lows in almost all games at 4k ultra.
It would be perfect and the ocd makes me want it 🤣 but I'll probably wait for a 4070ti to hit 500 because I'm partial to Nvidia and do allot of VR and single player games with Ray tracing but 🤮 can't stomach buying a 192 bus card that also has the slower memory, with bandwidth that low. I like that it's efficient and my 750w psu might not be enough for the 6950xt but skeptical about the 4070ti aging well. The performance seems alright but the benchmarks are a bit wonky and unpredictable, you can tell it's a gimped card.
And it's really not much of an upgrade over a 3080, so ya, 500 for a 4070ti is probably what I would buy at, or just wait for the next generation.
Also, You should only use DLSS if your card is really struggling and having 30-50 fps lows or something at the settings you want to play at. It's a solid feature and I like having it but DLSS does not reproduce the ultra smooth low latency feeling that real frames give and I really don't care for how hard Nvidia is marketing DLSS 3 on the 4070ti. From what I've read, some people says it pushes the artificial frames even higher while increasing latency even more then DLSS 2 and is a universally worse experience for high fps gaming.
If someone wants to buy a 192 bit bus width card with only 12 gb and slower memory for 850 dollars........ (just look how low the bandwidth is).
I don't think this card will age well against the 3090ti or 6950xt.
I'll buy one but for about 400-500 dollars and if it never goes that low, it's not a big deal. It's Not really much of an upgrade from my 3080.
