    The NVIDIA RTX 3060 GPU comes out today, and we're reviewing it with the EVGA RTX 3060 XC Black. Testing includes basically every modern card, but we primarily compare the RTX 3060 vs. the RTX 3060 Ti, RX 6800 & 5700 XT, RTX 2060, RTX 2060 Super, GTX 960, and GTX 1080 / 10-series cards. The RTX 3060 is a little bit disillusioning to review, if we're honest, and that's because we're all well aware at this point of the impossibility of meeting demand with any silicon product at launch. This isn't just NVIDIA: It's everyone, and not even just other PC part makers. Regardless, we'll review it from two perspectives: In the first, we're talking about today, and that means keeping perspective of availability and pricing. In the second, we're talking about the future -- hopefully helping someone at a time when cards are more readily available. Benchmarks for the RTX 3060 include power consumption, gaming (e.g. Cyberpunk 2077), thermals, and fan speed, alongside RTX game benchmarks for ray tracing.

    I got my 3060 for a very low price and it was a huge upgrade and the 12GB Ram is fantastic for anybody who wants 200 fps with 50 mods active and 2nd gen raytracing. The 3060 may not have been a good option on release at that inflated price but now, for budget 1080p gaming and for those of us who use many GB of texture mods, the 3060 is literally one of the best value for money oprions available today. Mine also handles overclocking so well it just absolutely destroys any game i throw at it at 1080p, dual monitors. Great card.

      @boburanus69 6 месяцев назад

      Considering the cut-down nature of the entire 4xxx lineup (basically shifted each one down one card title, 4060 is actually a 4050, ect) this is very true. If you can acquire a 12gb 3060 you will see some games easily using more than 8gb of Vram at 1080p, with higher settings. Where people might object to 3060 vs say a ti variant or 3070, is when you want higher settings at higher resolutions. 1440p is doable on this card. The tradeoff becomes FPS vs Resolution vs Settings. If you want high FPS and Resolution, gonna have to sacrifice settings. If you want high settings and FPS, gonna have to sacrifice resolution. If you want High resolution and high settings, gonna sacrifice FPS.
      For me, I can run Doom Eternal on 1080p with ultra settings, RTX/DLSS disabled, ~144 fps with this card. Vram usage creeps slightly above 10gb, with no noticeable frame dips or other issues.
      Similarly, Apex Legends will run at 144hz with maxxed settings.
      BF5 and GTA5 run between 60-100 fps. This card is pretty beast for the power draw, footprint, heat, ect. I went from a 980 to 3060. A 1080ti is roughly equivalent to the 3060.

    Thank you! This is real helpful to me as prices and availability come out of the stratosphere.
    Eh, I think it's better than "it's fine." To me, price to performance on this is actually very good. Anyone coming from a 9xx or 10xx series card has a very nice and affordable option here.
    But for me sitting on a 2060 OC, I think you've sold me on this not really being worth the bump yet. That I should sit on it until maybe a 4060 or at least a 3070 become tempting. But also for me, it's hard to justify the cost of a 3060ti/3070.
    All to say, I really like the value they bring with these xx60 cards for those of us not pushing the absolute limit!

      keep in mind that this is the best current gen Nvidia card available in an ITX form factor (below 180mm in length, dual slot design). You could get a GTX 1080 in the same form factor, and then an RTX 2070. In terms of performance per Watt, Nvidia has made almost no progress in the span of 5 years. All they are doing is throwing more power at the problem to squeeze out more performance, kinda like Intel has been doing for a long time now. Really weak showing from Nvidia.
      Edit: I was wrong, MSI has a 3060Ti ITX card, which is actually a decent generational performance improvement over previous ITX cards.

      To be fair the 2080 super is closer to a 3060 ti performance than a 3060. He has a point that with the 3060 itll get hampered down by its performance before the 12gb can be used.
