The sad part is when you realize this uplift was one of the _better_ ones of the generation. Look at the 3060ti>4060ti or 6800xt>7800xt. Many cards gave pathetic uplift or got price hikes that made them an even _worse_ value. Even with price drops there's nothing that stands out and even the best case scenarios can't muster up better than "well I guess it's not _that_ bad." AMD and Nvidia were perfectly happy for decades making 25-30% margins. Neither them or their shareholders want to go back now after enjoying the 50-60% margins of the crypto boom.

It not shit really, i can confirm the power to performance is insane on the 40xx series cards, it all depends on what you upgrading from. In my case i had a rtx 2060 then upgraded to a rtx 4070 super. Basically was a 130% increase in performance but if you have a 30xx series card i would suggest wating for new cards to come rather. All i can say is the 4070 super is a beast and even though it was not meant for 4k gaming i can play 80% of the AAA titles on 4k med/high settings and still hit +-60fps. So for me was money well spent.

To be fair you need to keep in mind GPUs take years to design and Nvidia is surely deep into the designs on the generation _after_ 50 series. No one was crying about 8gb of vram back when these were designed because no games needed it without cranking it to 4k that none of these were ever designed for. But still they really _should_ have been planning ahead better.

Its a great video but with one sticking point when he says 40fps feels good on a VRR display but 95% of VRR panels have a VRR range of 48Hz and Up, so 40Hz isnt in the VRR range, causing the Vsync judder effect. Many youtubers seem to forget this and give bad advice on 40Hz caps. Other than that bit, its a great video.

No, most vrr displays will go into low framerate compensation mode below 48hz so if it hits 40, the monitor will run at 80 and display each frame twice, staying in sync.

@@danielowentech But most dont thats the thing, as I said, lots of panels sold out of the hundreds available still shudder under 48Hz, so many panels exist that do not have LFC, some do but its not the majority of models. LFC is a godsend feature, but the monitors people (normies) buy, most dont have it as a feature. You can literally check most models sold at any time, its pretty clear. People should always check when purcasing a monitor of course, as with anything, but LFC isnt as common as people would hope, and 40Hz looks bad in those circumstances. Daniel could have mentioned his 40Hz statement is because LFC and I wouldn't have even commented.
