Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC 8GB Graphics Card
Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC Ampere architecture delivers the ultimate play, featuring advanced 2nd generation Ray Tracing Cores and 3rd generation Tensor Cores with greater throughput. Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC 8GB Graphics Card featured with NVIDIA Ampere Streaming Multiprocessors, Integrated with 8GB GDDR6 256-bit memory interface, WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System with alternate spinning fans, RGB Fusion 2.0, Protection metal back plate and 1740 MHz (Reference Card: 1665 MHz) Core Clock. The NVIDIA DLSS is groundbreaking AI rendering that boosts frame rates with uncompromised image quality using the dedicated AI processing Tensor Cores on GeForce RTX and give you the performance headroom to crank up settings and resolutions for an incredible visual experience. RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC AI revolution has come to gaming. The NVIDIA Reflex delivers the ultimate competitive advantage with lowest latency. This Graphics card is best responsiveness Graphics card. Acquire targets faster, react quicker, and increase aim precision through a revolutionary suite of technologies to measure and optimize system latency for competitive games.
In this Graphics card, the 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in a low load or low power game and the airflow is spilt by the triangular fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface. Here, Alternate Spinning can reduce the turbulence of adjacent fans and increase air pressure.The GIGABYTE turns the adjacent fans in the opposite direction, so that the airflow direction between the two fans is the same, reducing the turbulence and enhancing the airflow pressure. In this graphics card, Graphene nano lubricant can extend the life of fan by 2.1 times, close to the life of double ball bearing, and is quieter. It's extended heatsink design allows air flow to pass through, providing better heat dissipation.
RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC shape of the pure copper heat pipe maximizes the direct contact area with the GPU. The heat pipe also covers the VRAM through a large metal plate contact to ensure proper cooling. This Graphics card is also featured with 16.7M customizable color options and numerous lighting effects, you can choose lighting effects or synchronize with other AORUS devices.The cutting edge intuitive interface allows you to adjust the clock speed, voltage, fan performance and power target in real-time according to your game’s requirements. The latest Gigabyte RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC 8GB Graphics Card has 02 Years Warranty.
Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC 8GB Review
The RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC Pro is the company's premium custom-design graphics card based on NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 3060 Ti "Ampere" GPU being launched today. Gigabyte brings to the table its iconic WindForce 3X cooling solution, RGB Fusion illumination, and a custom-design PCB geared toward overclocking. The meaty triple-slot, triple-fan cooling solution is surplus to the cooling requirements of the 200 W RTX 3060 Ti, and so it trades this surplus in for low noise. The RTX 3060 Ti "Ampere" is designed to cater to the widest gaming audience yet with its starting price of $400, enabling 1440p gaming with RTX raytracing. In addition, it's designed to play 1080p games at high refresh-rates of 144 Hz.
The RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC is based on the same 8 nm GA104 silicon as the recently launched RTX 3070. NVIDIA enables 38 out of 48 streaming multiprocessors physically present on the GPU, amounting to 4,864 Ampere CUDA cores, 152 Tensor Cores, 38 RT cores, 152 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. It comes with the same 8 GB of 14 Gbps GDDR6 memory as the RTX 3070 over the same 256-bit wide memory bus. The 2nd generation RTX technology combines new Ampere CUDA cores that offer concurrent FP32+INT32 math capability with 2nd generation RT cores, which offer higher performance, along with new hardware that enables raytraced motion blur; and the new 3rd generation Tensor core that leverages the sparsity phenomenon in deep-learning neural nets to improve AI inference performance significantly. NVIDIA leverages AI for its RTX denoiser and its DLSS performance enhancement.
What I can say is that the card is correctly cooled and the cooling is done quietly. The card is passive is the GPU temperature is less than 42°C, which is most of the time the case at idle.
RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC graphics card is powered by an additional 8-pin power connector (total possible power draw: 150 + 75 = 225W). GIGABYTE kept the regular 8-pin connector in place of the new 12-pin connector available on the RTX 3060 Ti Founders Edition.
