I am NOT asserting that the 3000 series will double performance.
I am asserting that there will be a SIZABLE performance increase as nVidia's available transistor budget has increased significantly with the move to 7nm.

The 3060 will be a mid range card.

That's what I'm saying. It will all come down to pricing and performance if upgrading to a RTX3060 is the better option instead of buying a next gen console. It's something that I can't remember ever happened before.

At the start of current gen it was a no brainer as you could pick up a GTX760 or a GTX970 that was cheaper than current gen consoles and had double the performance. All I'm saying is that it's a bit different this time around. I mostly play on pc and, for the first time ever, I'm honestly not sure if upgrading it will be the smartest thing to do. At least not at the beginning of the next console generation. 

Yeah, sorry, that overlap does not exist. There is no person in the world who has to decide between a GPU and a console. That's why the price debate is pointless. That's because there are a lot more important considerations driving those decisions.

Console will always be more cost efficient when it comes to raw performance. Thankfully that is the least concern for people when deciding what to buy.
