I suggest using Colab free. The resources are more than most people need and use the cloud when you got a serious work load like a business or research.
If you want to do gaming with that then try the rtx 3060 instead. More VRAM let’s you do more than rtx 3070 ironically.
Either paths will eventually lead you to the cloud to be remotely competitive in serious workloads.

Whenever I try to connect to a GPU on Colab, I get a GPU limit message. This has been the case for the last 3 weeks

Develop on your PC first then just use it for a train job. If you have to use it longer than the timeout, the just buy a cloud instance. I have been using Colab for years and never got those issues. Use what it’s meant for and you won’t run into problems.

I will be buying a 4070 Ti this summer, and wanted to use Colab till then. But no luck getting a GPU

You might get a better deal by getting and rtx 3090. Double the VRAM for around the same price. It’s way to easy to hit the VRAM limit on a gpu.

in my country 4070 ti is like 1000$ and 3090 is 1600-1700$ i can’t afford that expensive GPU

Go to the used market. Buying brand new cards will be more expensive because those are scalpers. Second hand is much more reasonable.

I am worried of getting a mined card that might die the next day

You need to buy credit now to use colab.

Colab is not free anymore except for very short time.

Thanks to you, I found that the RTX 3060 has 12GB VRAM. I'll consider it.
