By far my favorite purchase ever made on Amazon. I bought it about a year and a half ago and I'm still loving it. Don't overpay for it though, graphics cards can be insanely overpriced right now. Around 300 is the sweet spot. It's not the best at ray-tracing but it has good raster performance for the price. It's also suuuuper cool, as in temperature. I've even pushed this thing past it's limits, changing the clocks to 3.25ghz (175w), while boosting memory speeds by 250mhz, and it hasn't gone past 52c. No melted cables or connections either. Paired with an i5-12600kf, and pcie gen4, here's some average framerates I get at 1080p high (according to Afterburner): Warzone: 102fps Oblivion Remastered: 71fps Grounded: 133fps Minecraft(Optifine): 880fps Marvel Rivals: 97fps So yeah, I would recommend using some upscaling in most modern titles. It performs really well with upscaling, but I wanted to share some numbers without using it for others to decide for themselves. These are from using custom boost clocks, which isn't something everyone will do. So shave off about 8-10% from those numbers for out-of-the-box performance. Some extra pros/cons: It's PCIE4 x8. That makes it half the bandwidth of higher tier cards, but it's not powerful enough to need it because PCIE4 (and now 5) are quite fast. But that allows mid-low tier cpu's to use more m.2 storage, since processors like mine can only run 20 pcie lanes at most (and m.2 nvme ssd's use 4 pcie lanes). Lightweight and short, so it doesn't need any additional brackets or braces for support. Just the screws work perfect, no visible sag at all. Conclusion: After a year and a half of daily use the temps remain cool. It has support for all API's you could need, and very fast AI cores for upscaling makes it a very viable 1080p card, even for Unreal 5 games. Very flexible for overclocking since tdp is below the wattage it can pull from the socket. Still has support for 32-bit CUDA functions, so older games that use PhysX engine will perform well. By far, this is the best version of the RTX 4060, and you can take that to the bank!

★★★★★Great 1080p choice
Solid and reliable card. Great for 1080p, carried me through 2 years of gaming.

★★★★★Great update from GTX 1660 Ti
We bought a 1660 Ti back in 2019 and it was a great card for its time even though it ran on the hot side. It only used about 125 watts which was pretty good for a midrange card. Cost was $299 before the pandemic and then prices went nuts and we just waited until prices came back to where they were before the pandemic. Thie RTX 4060 OC was $305 so pretty close to the old one and maybe cheaper when you consider inflation. Games that ran at 80% on the old card run at 20% on this card. The system runs overall quieter and the air coming out of the case is just a little warm compared to very warm to hot with the 1660. So it looks like a good card to run newer titles at decent settings and also save money on power. The current plan is to put the 1660 Ti in my old Windows desktop but I'm considering getting another 4060 OC for that system too.
