But in 2002, Willem Dafoe and Sam Raimi created a version of the character so iconic, that it's not a stretch to call it definitive. All the way back to the 1960s and the villains Silver Age origins. Spider-Man and Green Goblin go back a long way. Oh, and it has 12GB of GDDR6 VRAM, which is going to help if you plan on running with higher resolution textures. I wouldn't be surprised to see better ray tracing performance on the 3060 too, especially with the addition of DLSS. But with Nvidia claiming 13 shader teraflops on the RTX 3060, we're looking at a card that is similar or better to what the PS5 and Xbox Series X are offering (10.28 teraflops and 12 teraflops on their respective GPUs). If you've been waiting to upgrade that aging GTX 1060, though, this could very well be your next card.Ĭomparing it to consoles is a little tougher, of course-all we can do is compare teraflops, which are far from a perfect measure of GPU power.

Nvidia hasn't given us a ton of metrics to glean performance without ray tracing, but we'll be taking a closer look at these cards once we get our hands on them. And I'm willing to bet that those looking to upgrade to 1440p will have no problem securing worthwhile performance-albeit perhaps with ray tracing off or some settings turned down.

Now, that's just using 'high' settings at 1080p, but keep in mind the target user here: most gamers are still running that resolution according to the Steam Hardware Survey. Nvidia is claiming AAA games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Watch Dogs Legion, and Cyberpunk 2077 will all achieve over 60 frames per second with Ray Tracing and DLSS on. As Nvidia noted in its launch event, this class of GPU tends to hit that perfect price-to-performance sweet spot that makes PC gaming a compelling alternative to affordable consoles. Like the GTX 9 that came before it, we wouldn't be surprised to see this as the next runaway success for Nvidia, provided it can keep up the impressive generational leaps that the other 3000-series cards have shown so far.
