Which should you buy?
The RTX 3060 was released in 12GB and 8GB versions while the RTX 4060 has 8GB, so a 12GB RTX 3060 gives more room for local AI models than an RTX 4060. In this catalog, the RTX 3060 has the lower median recorded price ($463.24 against $539.00). The lowest recorded price per GB of VRAM is $34.17 for the RTX 3060. Memory capacity does not measure speed, and these are recorded Amazon US quotes rather than live checkout prices, so confirm the current offer, condition, exact board and your power supply before buying.
Use the LLM VRAM estimator to check how much memory your model needs, then compare listings on the RTX 3060 page and the RTX 4060 page.
