GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3060 WINDFORCE OC 12G (rev. 2.0) Graphics Card, 2X WINDFORCE Fans, 12GB 192-bit GDDR6, GV-N3060WF2OC-12GD Rev2.0 Video Card

UPS were the people who shipped this via Amazon. I spent nearly $320 on this product and UPS was very incompetent and extremely stressful to work with. First off I had to download the proprietary UPS app to track my package, second off they skipped my house literally 3 times and then when they passed my house the 4th time, that's when they actually delivered it. Then they wanted a signature which my roommates were really not wanting to do since I was at work, but someone did sign for it and I just installed it in my computer.Please note that you do need a PSU that supports either a 6+2 pin or an 8-pin configuration, and if you have neither of those you need to upgrade your PSU. There are 8-pin adapters for this but they are very dangerous to use and are a serious housefire risk due to how the nature of the pins work by design.Now that the GPU is actually delivered and I'm looking at what it's doing performance wise, it's getting 97 FPS 1080p with the Uniengine Heaven benchmark. I bought this card as a replacement to my GTX 980 which was starting to fail. The second reason I bought this card was because I was tired of having 40 FPS while 1080P gaming. My goal is to get as close to 240FPS as possible and so far with this benchmark I'm doing, it's meeting my expectations.Please note that my settings for the Unigine Heaven benchmark 4.0 was Ultra Quality, 1920x1080 8xAA Fullscreen, Extreme Tessellation under a 2700x Ryzen 7 on Win 11. I'm aware that if I turned down Tessellation, my score would be higher.October 2024 Edit:GPU is still working after 4 months. GPU never really gets hot unless I put on a very intensive game. Most games get 140+ FPS with older titles HITTING that 240 FPS I bought the GPU for. Should've I gotten the 40xx series? I didn't bother cuz my PSU doesn't support 16-pin connectors that the 40xx lineup requires.Pros:-Almost always cool, never gets that hot-Is quiet even under load-140+ FPS usually... Had over 120+ FPS in the RE4 Remake and a solid 40-60 in the new Silent Hill 2 Remake-GREAT PRICE for the GPU you actually getCons:-GPU still struggles with DX12, my 980 GTX struggled even worse with the API-2x 6-Pin (or 4+2) required, meaning you will need to have support for that out of the box on the PSU-Runs hot when playing something like Resident Evil 7, and you can feel the heat emanating from it when it does run hot-There are better GPUs to buy that perform better but this 3060 RTX is more for if you got a tight budget-UPS will overcomplicate the shipping process and you'll have to download thier software to track your package

I bought this card because I was exceeding the 6GB VRAM limit on my GTX 1660 super while video editing. So I was looking for a card with more than 8GB of VRAM and this was the only affordable option, as the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB was about $600 at the time of purchase.It pairs well with my Ryzen 5 5600X, offering fast 4K playback in DaVinci Resolve and amazing framerates at 1080p in any game I throw at it.Overall, it is a great card for the price, and I definitely recommend it for any content creator who games in their free time!

Very powerful, after 3 years of purchasing I didn't regret buying it. It works very well with all games

My son has been going crazy because his friend got a new computer and of course an expensive graphics card in it. Suddenly I found our house empty after school as the kids are into playing a few games on the PC. Honestly, I appreciate them using the computer to play games more so than the Xbox as they're using the keyboard and a mouse and typing, and they're installing and setting profiles and learning at least a little in setting up some of these complicated games.The cost - yes, it's expensive, for sure a big purchase. But I will tell you, his computer could hardly play some of his favorite games... I've been thinking about building him a new computer from the ground up. But I read a few reviews and decided after much deliberation to buy this card... it changed everything. The computer screams - it's like a brand-new computer plus the fact that the games are incredible. While I didn't want to top his friends, I figured if I'm doing it - do it so I don't have to buy another card in 2 years. This card certainly fits the bill for exactly that. It's a win - just drop it in the cart if it's on sale and buy, you're not going to be disappointed. Here's the other thing - I looked at the 3070 but that card is just way too much money. After seeing this card render the games - I honestly question how it could possibly get better. That's a serious statement.Pros:- This install is simple, open the case, slide it in and plug the power cable in and close the case.- Windows automatically recognizes the card and handles the install process. Of course, you could still go to the manufacture site and grab the additional tweaking software if you're really into that.- THE CARD CRUSHES 3D!!! Even I was blown away by how good the games played and the totality of what I was watching on the screen... it's borderline a movie. Cool!Cons:- It's expensive - but you're going to buy it and it should last plenty of years.If you're looking for a really nice card and to put a smile on your face and see your computer scream again like it's new... this is the card for you.Hope you enjoy - this would make a great Christmas gift.

The media could not be loaded. when I heard/saw this GeForce RTX 3060 and read the reviews at other websites had to get one, found it on Amazon, I do a lot of Race simulations, World of warships, Etc. this G card does it All... at a Great price. I notice prices of this unit is going up.I very Satisfied and happy with the graphics card,

This is a good card however, the GTX1070 this replaced did a BETTER job IMO. My 1070 made a pop and was smoking after like 5 or 6 years, really bummed me out, so I got the RTX3060 as the pricing was the sweet spot for me, I thought that since it was so much newer, and the name has a much higher number (3060 vs 1070), and its Nvidia, that the performance would be quite phenomenal compared to what I had. Nope. (that's why 4 stars instead of 5) Meager difference with my (Asus Rampage 4 Extreme 2011 socket mobo, 32 gig ripjaw ram, intel i7-3820 cpu, 64X). Again, it IS a good video card but I should have went for the 4000 series for more cash.....probably.

It is a full-size card, so it was a tighter squeeze/fit than I was expecting. But working great!Play games easily so far on high details... in 2K on my monitor using Display Port.
