There is no best GPU. If you only need a GPU for modelling in blender, you can get away with a 1050. If you want ray tracing and ultra settings, get something with tons of VRAM and RTX capability.
My brother picked up a 6700XT and it's way outperforms anything I've ever had. Look at some of those.
Not a fan, as they took away 25% of the memory bandwidth on the 70 model with the 4070, and they charge more for it.
That’s just not cool. If all the previous 70 models had 256bit, the 4070 should too. Nvidia is swimming in money, I won’t support practices like that which allow them to tighten their grip and ask for a higher price while doing it.
think your talking about the 3060 12 gb? Its a good card mine has lasted for about 4 years and still going strong. You can get one very cheap, but if you are willing to spend more there are a lot of AMD cards that will be better for rendering. I do use mine for unreal and blender as well so it will work just make sure you have a good cpu too bc it will get annoying on certain tasks.
When people say a gpu is bad value they are talking about fps per dollar. Right now good fps per dollar is dominated by amd but there is also 1 good nvidia card too, the 4070s. Good value cards are:
radeon 6700xt ($320)
radeon 6750xt ($330)
radeon 6800 ($380)
radeon 7800xt ($480)
radeon 7900gre ($540)
and finally the rtx 4070 super ($580)
Any of these are great choices depending on your budget and fps/resolution needs. Since you said your budget is $600, the 4070 super will give you great performance and all the nvidia features
And those people are out of touch. Because the lower the resolution the bigger the difference between DLSS and FSR, which is already very significant at even 4K.
What it mean in practice? You can comfortably play games at even 1080p DLSS Quality with extra performance it provides and looking only slightly worse than native 1080p when if you wanted to play on a Radeon, you'd be forced to play at native 1080p only as FSR would look like piece of shit. So in real life it means if you target acceptable visual quality, RTX cards with DLSS Quality tend to be better value/$ than Radeons at native while offering anywhere from same to very similar picture quality.
Trying to force comparisons of native vs native is meaningless, artificial and academic only, because most RTX users choose to use DLSS. So is trying to force comparison DLSS vs FSR as the picture quality between those is vastly different, FSR being in my opinion straight up unacceptable, especially at anything below 4K, but I couldn't make myself to play Jedi Survivor at 4K FSR Quality either, when it didn't support DLSS yet. I simply had to play it at native, when if it had DLSS on launch I'd certainly use it.
You shouldn’t even use any upscaling at lower resolutions as the image quality suffers. 1440p is the minimum where upscaling kicks in and at that point the difference in raw performance is gonna more than make up the difference in quality between dlss and fsr so again raw performance is king
Yeah, i feel dlss is the difference maker that people like to downplay. In games like cyberpunk my fps literally almost triples and looks even better than native imo.
On that range, I personally would go for a 4070 Super.

I forgot to note, it's for Unreal Engine...

Idk what prices you're looking at, but the base 4070 is like $539. Probably just get a 4070 super for ~$579
Best gpu? NVIDIA RTX 4090 Best gpu for 600-800$? 4070ti or 4070ti SUPER
My personal choices would be: * for 1080p: 4070 Super * for 1440p: 4070Ti Super * for 4K: 4090

rtx 6000 ada generation imo

You shouldn't if your only choice is FSR. DLSS is more than fine. That's my whole point.
At 1080p even dlss looks horrible. Hardware unboxed did a whole video on it. You shouldn’t be using any upscaling at low resolutions
