Why buy each?

NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti

16GB variant advantage

The 16GB model avoids the 8GB limitation that plagued the base model — still relevant for 1440p gaming.

165W TDP

Very low power draw — works with virtually any modern PSU.

RTX 5060 Ti is better value new

At $429 with GDDR7 and DLSS 4, the RTX 5060 Ti is the clear choice for new buyers.

Intel Arc B570

10GB GDDR6 at $219

2GB more VRAM than NVIDIA's RTX 5050 (~$189) and RTX 5060 ($299) — the best VRAM-per-dollar in the sub-$225 GPU market.

150W TDP — compact-build friendly

A full 40W lower than the B580 and 20W lower than most competing NVIDIA cards at this price. No PSU upgrade needed for most systems.

XeSS 2 upscaling

Intel's second-generation AI upscaler delivers strong image quality in supported titles, with a growing catalogue of compatible games.
