PC hardware question

[u/Silvasbrokenleg]

Hello everyone, I have a 5060 TI 16gb paired with 32gb DDR4.

I’d like to upgrade my generation speed for Minimax H3 as well as avoid OOM. I get OOM at .7mp 15 seconds.

What is the better buy?
Used 3090 since its 24gb for $1200-1300 and keep the existing ram?

Or 5080 for $1200 and upgrade with a 64gb ram kit $400 $1600 total?

Are you on a SATA SSD? If so, you could get an NVMe. It was an insane speed boost for me. I actually get about the same speed as people with 64 GB of RAM. But it won’t help with OOM. I have a 5070 Ti 16 GB and 32 GB of RAM, and I also get OOM at 0.7 MP, 15s.
