    Graphics Card

    I've been looking at a new PC and I was doing research to find out if if a Geforce rtx 4060ti would give me good frame rates running OR. Is anybody using this card and are they happy with it?

    I am using a 2070 and OR only uses 30% at the most, some old routes only use 10%.
    A 4060 will last you for years to come.

      Even an afforadable 3060 should be fine

        You'll be fine. I'm running a RTX3050 and it behaves great with OpenRails, Run8, and working in TSRE and Blender.
        If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

              Lots of RAM.
              The RTX3060 w/12GB.
              Reasonably priced.

                  I can run 4k@60hz on some routes with a 2070.
                  The later routes will bring my system to its knees.

                    My system has whatever come on the MOBO and works fine. Operationally for me, the frame rate is okay but most of my time is involved with TSRE which doesn't seem to care what the video source is.

                      Note that some cards come with different amounts of video ram - notably the 3060 series had a 6GB and a 12GB model - you want as much video ram as feasible.

                      Right now is a hard time to get a card - Both AMD and Nvida both recently released new GPU's. Seems like all the new stuff is out of stock, or overpriced, while the old stuff is hit or miss - I could not find a 4060ti for sale at the microcenter near me.
