Welp so my guess about the 4060 Ti prices were certainly on point when I said 8GB version would be $400 and 16GB version would be $500. Maybe I should make a twitter account and call myself a leaker lul. Overall it's meh. 4060 Ti 16GB will likely get discounted to at least $450 a month or so after release so that could be a decent deal. 4060 Ti 8GB may as well be a skip at this point. 4060 at $300 isn't too bad but this should force 3060 12GB versions to come down in price so unless you care about the new benefits like DLSS 3, AV1 encoding, 60 less watts, 3060 12GB could be the way to go. Realistically I wouldn't use DLSS 3 at 1080p cause it really does look kinda bad. 4k is it's main strength and 1440p is decent. This is also one of those rare times when Nvidia didn't adjust the CUDA core count when adding in more vram.
But the bigger question I have is where is the rest of RDNA 3s lineup? All Radeon released is 7900XTX/XT and soon the 7600? From providing an alternative to Nvidia at every GPU class with RDNA 2, they seem to be only picking certain categories while continuing to produce RDNA 2 to fill in the gaps for the rest? I am not much of a power guy but there is something to be said for a mid range buyer to consider say a 6950XT which is a really big and power hungry GPU with triple 8 pin vs a small 4070 powered by a single 8 pin. If AMD would release a 7700XT with 16GB of Vram that is similar in power and size to a 4070 along with the benefits of RDNA 3, that would make the decisions better imo.
