First take: looks great in terms bang for the buck, but I question the graphics card.

Someone with better info and expertise than me should weigh in, but I think the RTX 4060 is kind of on the "low performance" end of the spectrum.

Right now, the only things that beat it are 4070, 4080/super, and 4090. The 5080s and 5090s don't come out until early 2025. -- nm - David Nov 9, 16:18 1
- And the RTX 4060 I vaguely remember was 8 MB not 12 MB. - ReluctantCynic Nov 9, 16:40
So compare to this one with a 4070? -- (link) - Reagen Nov 9, 16:15 6
- This is what I have. -- (link) - David Nov 9, 16:19 5
  - only seeing it there with the 4050 and for quite a bit more. -- nm - Reagen Nov 9, 16:28 2
    - If there's no rush, you're three weeks away from the best deals of the year. -- nm - David Nov 9, 16:34 1
      - There's two main national computer stores that have flash sales, but it's quick before they're sold out. - Reagen Nov 9, 16:36
  - My model number is FX507ZI-F15.I74070. -- nm - David Nov 9, 16:24 1
    - And here was ST's discussion last year about the 4060 vs. 4070. -- (link) - David Nov 9, 16:25 [Backboard]
