Rtx 3080/3070/3070ti/3060/3060ti

Hi there!

My name is Miguel, architect from Portugal and new here.
I allready bought the licence a few months ago and was waiting for the cards prices to go down a bit, but since they didn’t I’m gona buy a new PC, wich is more afordable.
I have never used the program because my card isn’t compatible, so I’m seeking your help to help me choose a card.
Usually I do my projects in Autcad and the 3ds in scketchup, mostly houses with interiors, furniture/decoration and a bit of the sorroundings. The threes and other vegetation I’ll use from D5. I also develop urban planing projects so I’ll will be making big model in the near future.


















These are some examples of the work I did in Lumion.
I want to take my renders a few points up and dig into the video renderings wich i never did.
The computers that are avaible here have rtx 3080/3070/3070ti/3060/3060ti cards and I really would like to know on wich one to invest since the overall price of the computers diverge because of the cards. Also dont mind spending a bit more atm, rather than regreating a lower investment, that will need an update in the future.

Best regards,
Miguel.

Hi miguel

I recommend the Nvidia RTX graphics cards, here are the performance bechmarcks and the indicative prices, today the best option is the 3080 TI which is a little below the 3090 and the difference is not justified unless you need double the ram to big projects.

I still have the 2080 ti that in performance is a little below the top of the range and the price is not justified to change it since I never fall short.
It’s my opinion, in case it helps.
