What is the point of a 5060?

Question

What is the point of a 5060?

To sell off the bad silicon off to retarded gamers

that is one good looking gpu

To force gaming companies to not hire Indians that can't code.

Why the fuck does this piece of shit get 16GB of RAM?

Bitcoin mining and AI datacenters.
Gamers still think they are the target audience lmao

Don't these need fat RAM? 8-12GB from a 5060 seem pointless for that.
I know, the bare minimum should be 24 but it's a shit GPU generation.

Because 8GB cards are e-waste.

They will be and so will 12 and 16 .
Because stupid can eat any amount of computation

349 """msrp""""

We had 8GB cards for a decade at this point. Memory is cheap I would not call that computation.

You just want people to waste Money without any benefit.
The last Indiana Jones has a worse looking jungle then crisis 2013.
And that ran on 2gb vram

Ok but that's a problem not related to hardware.

Crysis ran like shit and was unplayable on hardware available when that game came out if you enabled all the features.
I still think Crysis was impressive unlike modern games which also run like shit but have 0 innovation.

Exactly why solve it with your money when companies can use their money to optimize?

Why did you hide the 8 gb version, OP?

Ran just fine on my 750ti

If you think optimizing UE5 is so easy, where's your well-optimized UE5 game?

b-but muh p-proprietary engine?

OK, where's your self-written game engine? Don't bother, I already know it's in the same place where all the other proprietary engines are: they don't exist due to being cost-inefficient.

LMAO
Crysis came out in 2007 your GPU came out in 2014.
I hope you see the irony.

Because the 16GB version is IRL cheaper than the Ngreedia fake MSRP 8GB version.

save 50 bucks but half the RAM

Is AMD shitposting IRL?

same dogshit just like jewvidia
but its ok because its amd

They are sniffing the same glue as nVidia.

The one that came out in 2012 or 13 ran too and like I said the jungle looked better.
And I Played the Indiana game on a 3060 at best resolution and 3x everything still looks worse

people seems to keep forgetting jensen and lisa are cousins
this is fake competition

under 350 (actually 550)

Siblings hate each other's guts all the time. Anyone who has siblings will tell you the competition can get as fierce as it can be between unrelated people.

Later Crysis games had unironically better scaling with hardware.
Who cares about how the jungle looks if you can't even interact with the objects inside the game, this is the true downgrade.
So I'm fine with higher hardware requirements IF we get better games.
But instead we get higher fidelity games with less gameplay.

The current hardware is beyond what it's needed and nothing is improving
My 8c 16t CPU is running at 20% in most games .
VRAM is only necessary for open world BS that isent being utilized at all but is loading square miles of assets for no reason.
Get rid of open world improve how interactive and dynamic the level is have set pieces of intentional events.

I agree in 100% with you on that one.
But it's not going to happen.
We are not the target audience anymore, retards are.

I've yet to play a game that requires more than 11 gb of vram at 4k
what the hell is even requiring close to 16?

Framegen requires VRAM.

ram is cheap, relatively

The 5060 will actually sell. Amd never sells. That's the difference.

My 9070 XT ran out of VRAM giving me 1 FPS in Oblivion Remastered.

5060 will sell because

gayming laptops

prebuilds

retards

he believes AyyMD MSRPs are real even after the 9070 MSRP lie

lmao

no way, but everyone told me people are lining up for intel and amd gpu

we don't even need those fat VRAM if devs weren't strangely obsessed with uncompressed assets and 8K textures

Nvidia wouldn't have 75% marketshare if that was the case

Meant for

their market share is from retards buying prebuilts

prebuilds

unfortunately this is the only accessible budget card that offers decent performance in third world countries
going for ti or 70 is way too expensive for their wages

What are you even smoking?
Texture quality in games is awful, even more so because everyone uses TAA which kills texture quality.

which further proves my point of uncompressed and high resolution textures being useless and only bloats the system requirements and storage space

Nope, I want more high res textures because of it.
There is no performance cost for having better textures unless you run out of memory.
But I have large SSD and more than 16GB of VRAM.
"textures" can also mean things like tessellation and other effects stored as a texture, but devs rarely bother to optimize things like merging multiple textures to save on compute and storage.
So maybe you want to start with that first.
