-Will GeForce RTX3060 TWIN EDGE 12GB ZOTAC run these settings, or almost?
Thanks.
DLSS quality you’ll get around 60 but may experience dips on high. I don’t see any tests on ultra but I wouldn’t count on ultra. Difference between high and ultra is marginal though. Definitely get diminishing returns as the settings keep going up
probably high, on ultra you will get lag and dropped frames on big pulls, shadows and lots of AOE won’t look as good.
Ultra 4k? Not a chance. Ultra 1440p? Also not really. The 3060 is a 1080p card with some 1440p capability. The extra VRAM will allow you to run with high textures on 1080p no problem, but 1440p and up will be very suboptimal. You might fare OK on 1440p so long as the game works with DLSS 2. But don’t count on 4k being enjoyable at all.
Your CPU will also matter here. You only provided your GPU specs, but not your CPU and RAM. Given you’re using a 3060 I’m assuming your system is prior to 11th gen Intel or at best Zen 3 on the AMD side. But that’s all anyone can do is guess without the actual specs being provided.
He and I both have a 3080. And yes it runs everything on ultra fine!!!
He has a 3060. That’s a 1080p card w/ minimal 1440p capability.
My GTX 1080 ran Server Slam in native 1440p high settings with ultra textures at 70~120 fps. That’s almost ultra settings except Shadows and SSAO.
3060 should be able to run native 1440p ultra at 60+ fps even without DLSS.
Perhaps with most things turned down, but definitely not at the higher settings. His card has one major thing going for it though in that it has 12 GB VRAM. An oddity for sure, but a definite plus with this game.
I doubt your 3060 will get anything close to 60 fps in 4k. It would probably hover around 60 fps in 2k.
Like I said my GTX 1080 ran just fine with almost maxed out settings (only Shadows and SSAO were at one level below max)
With any luck he’ll find decent settings at 1440p. But your 1080 has a wider bus than his 3060. That somewhat offsets his GPU being ~12% (on average) faster than yours. As we’ve seen with the 4060 Ti, memory bus means a lot in many games. Fingers crossed he gets good FPS at the resolution he wants to play at. But 4k is not in the cards with that GPU under any realistic circumstances.
I played the server slam at 138FPS 1440p everything on Ultra with a 4070 non Ti and a 13600K.
Could hit those numbers with DLAA, but chose to play with DLSS quality to have less heat/power draw. Maybe I choose DLAA in the final release as IQ is superb.
Not really interested in 4K/60 tbh, my monitor is 1440p/144Hz IPS and plan to keep it for a few years. 4K is still a waste of resources IMO.
I have the same card at the moment, and I can tell you that at 4K it was not going to run at ultra settings. 3060 12GB.
I ran it a bit lower and it performed fine however, was able to stay near 60FPS.
Will be getting a 3070Ti in a couple days though, so that should do a bit better.
Bit path difference actually does matter, which is why the 4060 series sucks. *shudder
3060 12GB has 192-bit memory interface with GDDR6, and that is actually faster than my 1080 with 256-bit interface GDDR5X.
It’s faster in some instances. In games that require bandwidth that memory bus will bring performance down. That’s why the 3060 is roughly on par in a lot of games with the 1080, not ahead. Where the 3060 outdoes the 1080 is DLSS since it has access to version 2 at least.
It’s a good midrange card, but expecting miracles from it is a fruitless effort. Since there is not a huge amount of clarity gained by High texture levels, running Medium would probably net the most benefit so as to keep things within VRAM and avoid cache misses as much as possible.
So to me it seems I’ll get 100+ frames on all max @ 1440p without even DLSS with 3060 Ti, right? Any reason for me to turn that on? I require your assistance 
P.S. well I got 144 monitor, so I want that ideally. So DLSS would probably do it but is it worth it? 
So I have a very similar setup with 3060 Ti, so I just go all max and DLSS quality? What’s that IQ part?
DLAA works similar to DLSS but applies to the full resolution, it doesn’t give any performance boost (it takes some performnace away), but the resulting image quality is really good.
You might have to use DLSS(performance) if you want to hit 4k60. It wouldn’t be native 4k but would still look better on a 4k display than 1440p or 1080p.
Well if you don’t have a good 4k display it is.
With an actual good 4k display that can perfectly reproduce each pixel the differences between 1440p and 4k become extremely obvious and impossible to ignore. Nvidia wouldn’t have invested so many resources into 4k GPUs(and now 8k since they’ve tried marketing the 4090 as an 8k card) if it was a waste of resources. The huge increase in pixel density speaks for itself.
