hey critters, what's the state of things these days as far as gpus? is there a clear advantage between nvidia and amd, what's good value for money, what's better in terms of compatibility and features, etc

i ask because i was looking at getting an rtx 3060 (price ~$240 for reference) but i realized i hadnt looked into any amd chips so im not sure what to compare in terms of power and price point. im a pc building newbert so it's hard for me to sort through the specs to find good deals and stuff

(opens my umbrella in preparation for a deluge of gpu opinions)
