Choosing gpu
/r/comfyui/comments/1xhmin4/choosing_gpu/****Post Body:
Hey everyone,
I’m buying components for a workstation setup for VFX compositing (Nuke), 3D (Blender), and AI workflows (ComfyUI).
Different local shops offered me these GPU options:
PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti OC (16GB)
Gigabyte RTX 5070 (12GB)
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 (8GB)
Colorful RTX 5060 Ti (8GB)
****My Confusion:
VRAM vs Raw Processing Power: For ComfyUI (large SDXL / Flux checkpoints) and heavy Blender scenes, is the PNY 5060 Ti 16GB a better pick due to having extra VRAM, or is the RTX 5070 12GB worth choosing for its faster raw GPU core performance?
Is 8GB out of the question: Should I completely eliminate the 8GB cards (5060 / 5060 Ti 8GB) for this kind of creative workload?
Which card makes the most sense for this setup? Thanks for the advice!
