China has released their first gen competition to Nvidia cards. First ones kinda suck, but they're cheap. Let them pump out a few more and they'll drive the market back down.

More like competition to Intel considering these cards performance is similar to 3060

Is the 3060 that bad, I’ve been able to play a lot of games on a 750 TI still (though finally swapped for a 1650).

[–] mecen@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

I'm not saying it is bad but it doesn't compete with new nividia cards. For example if you want performance of 5070 you go with either rx9070 or 5070, but if you want 3060 you can get AMD Intel or NVIDIA and this is where this card is currently.

But let's hope next gen will be comparable to 4070 so it will be more of competition to them.

It's not bad, I think you can play pretty much anything on 1080p with 60fps easily. It's just that if you want to play games in 1440p or 4K with 120 fps+ you need something more powerful.

[–] knexcar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

1080p is good enough for me, and 60fps is better than 30 (or teens).

That's not too bad. The next generation could be genuinely useful.

I got many empty PCI-E slots. Having three or four 3060 clones to accompany my 4090 would make bigger models much more practical.
