Quote from: Not almost as fast on Today at 10:13:26Not sure I'd call it "Almost as fast", because then one could also say that the RTX 4050 Laptop is almost as fast as the RTX 4060 Laptop, but it's a tier above (20% faster). I'd define a 10% difference as "almost as fast".
Depends on the FPS you're comparing from 20% faster at 100 or 200 FPS is like 120 FPS or 240 FPS respectively. That's a whole 20 or 40 fps more. But 20% faster of 30 fps is only 36 FPS. Which I wouldn't really consider a completely different experience or one paying significantly more for.
Regarding rtx 4050 vs 4060, assuming tdps or power limits are roughly equivalent, people did say these cards were similar and still do. The only reason why people recommended
4060 over 4050 wasn't because of the 20% faster raster but because of the castrated vram amount in severely vram bottlenecked games. In games which go over 6GB vram buffer, it absolutely tanks FPS, like 1% lows down to 5 fps levels. But this issue is fixed in rtx 5000 series where 5050-5060-5070 all have same 8GB, so no real point spending more really..until you get to 5070 ti.
As such I'm personally against using percentages to determine arbitrary tiers in general, unless it's like 2x or at least 1.5x which is a big enough difference to be felt at no matter what fps you're comparing from.
