Question Upgrading from 3060 to 5060ti worth it now before prices go crazy?

[spok00]

Hi, i live in Italy and found a 16gb rtx 5060ti 16g on Amazon at around 530€ and I was wondering if it is worth the upgrade from my 3060. I play on 1440p 144hz monitor. My main concern is that I might regret not buying it now because of the ram problems it might skyrocket in price. Is it a valid concern? I don't want the regular 8g 5060 even if much cheaper because I'd also like to run some local ia models.

Is it a worthwhile upgrade? Yes, you'll gain like 80% higher performance.

If you're planning on upgrading your GPU, should you buy it now? No, you should've bought it a month ago but if you didn't then you should buy it now.

Is the 5060Ti 16GB a best bang-for-buck GPU at 530€? Not in my opinion. You should look out for RX 9070 16GB sales that often go towards the 600€ range and will get you +40% better performance than the 5060Ti, or the RX 9070XT for close to 700€.
