True, aim for 3060 either used or new.Go with RTX card for DLSS, no doubt. I hear due to less stock of 3050 and surplus of 3060, prices of the latter are very near to that of 3050. So better take 3060 instead if you find that's the case.
Can you actually share the prices at which you are getting both of the cards? There isn't a 15k price difference between these cards as far as I see on pcpricetracker. RTX 3050 should be the default choice here but if it costs 15K more then no, it is not worth it. One can always make do with FSR if DLSS is not available.i have to give 15k more for a 3050...
you guys think its worth it?
Yup you made the right choice imo. 3050 warrants a 4-5k premium over the 1660 series but 15k is a bit too much.I already paid for it and got the 1660
i'd have to splash out nearly 13.5-15K more for a 3050
Btw how much did you get the 1660 for?I already paid for it and got the 1660
i'd have to splash out nearly 13.5-15K more for a 3050
