I am playing in 1080p and so far 4060 Ti with 16 GB of VRAM seems like a good enough purchase. Very few games out there provide graphics good enough to warrant a higher priced card and 16GB means I should be fine running many of the generative AI models out there, even if it is a bit slow. I actually wanted to grab a 4070 but at the time I was buying the card there were no 16GB models available.

I would love to support AMD but I am not paying for a decade of total negligence of GPGPU.

Your 4060 Ti with 16 GB is perfect for 1080p gaming and light AI work—extra memory really helps with things like Stable Diffusion or small LLMs. The RTX 5060’s GDDR7 is faster, but 8 GB can fill up quickly under those loads. AMD’s new RX 7600/7700 cards with 12–16 GB and better ROCm support might be a solid non-Nvidia option.

The 5060 ti does offer better memory bandwidth due to using GDDR7, if you're finding the 4060 ti slow.
