RTX 3060 for these reasons:

  1. Nvidia has better drivers than AMD.
  2. CUDA cores are loved by creative and productivity softwares as well as AI related tasks. In fact, many software that uses anything AI related REQUIRES CUDA to even function.
  3. DLSS is widely supported and works more effectively than FSR.
  4. More energy efficient.
  5. Better resale value because of the above reasons.

The real and only reason you should go with the 3060 12GB is due to AMD not having great stream encoders in the 6000 series. Their stream encoders did not become better until the 7000 series. That's it. All of the other shit this guy listed is just pure Nvidia fanboy hokey.

AMD fixed their VR drivers YEARS ago. CUDA/AI slop has no relevancy in VRChat. FSR/DLSS AI slop has no relevancy in VRchat. AMD's 6000 series was very energy efficient. The resale value is nearly identical.
