What started off as a RTX 3060 8GB vs 12GB comparison turned to a sinister path, where initially I thought it would be just a framerate hit which is expected of a lower priced SKU but what I wasn't prepared for was how poorly some games fared.
In games like Far Cry 6 the FPS dropped by a very significant margin, and if I have the RTX 3050 I would've done a comparison nevertheless based on my search it seems that the RTX 3060 8GB performed more like the RTX 3050 8GB in Far Cry 6.
As for the RTX 4060 8GB, my experience with the RTX 3060 8GB tells me not to hope much for the card.
