GIGABYTE NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 WINDFORCE OC 12GB GDDR6 pci_e_x16 Graphics Card (GV-N3060WF2OC-12GD)

I'm a film editor and colorist. This product enhanced my overall workflow!

Decent pricing during time of purchase. Good performance. Don't buy unless price is less than 26k. The 12 GB VRAM is very good for LLM purposes but since I mostly use it for gaming, I wonder if I should've bought RTX 4060. The only downside is heating issues but if you undervolt it and do tweaking and have good enough airflow(which I dont), it should fix itself.

Worth its price, this beast runs CYBERPUNK 2077 at 70fps at max graphics on 1080p. This is the best gpu for mid range builds, you could get Rx6600 but this has better DLLS, Ray Tracing and overall performance for just 3k more

Go for it , while you can , still its the best card within 30k .

Had Gainward GeForce RTX™ 3060 Ghost and it got bust last year and looking for better card to replace. Galax has lower price but Gigabyte seems have bit edge as per ChatGPT. So bought this for 25K after SBI credit card offer. It doesn't have Logo RGB light which is bit disappointing. Also the fans were not running when connected. Didn't know 3060 fans will run only when the temperature reaches high. Able to play Indiana Jones, Spiderman without any glitch on my MSI, 10400F Proc with 16GB RAM. Value for money: Yes, it's definitely value for money. However the price tracker shows the price was lower during start of the year. Why did you pick this product vs others?: NVidia don't have any medium tier card for 12GB like 4060, 4070. Even though these new series are faster but still have 8GB VRAM. I use it mostly for Editing, Rendering and occasional gaming. So, more VRAM is my preference. Graphics quality: The Graphics quality is smooth. The games are playing very well without any flicker or slowness. But Blender often hangs when switch the wireframe to model. Ease of installation: Installation is very easy, just plugged the card on PCIE slot, connected power cable, fixed the screw and on game. Noise level: My PC has 4 fans, and this card doesn't have any noise as the fans are spinning only when High temp/load. So all I can hear in the PC fans not the RTX fans. Size: The card is of short compared to 3 fan models. The height is bit much and for some small motherboards it'll be congested.

Very good

The graphics card which I have received looks refurbished. The packaging is not at all good as there is no bubble wrap or any protective layer on the card. The card is old, used, and dirty. Besides that, the card has multiple scratches, the card is fully chipped at the sides, and I am not at all satisfied with the product. I paid 27,000 rupees and I received a used, damaged, dirty, product which I cannot even use.

I upgraded to this RTX 3060 12GB from my old GTX 1050 2GB since 2017 just about a couple of weeks ago. Amazon delivered pretty much on time with no damage to the GPU. EDITING : I am a motion graphics designer and usually my workload consists of 2D animation and 1440p video edits, and where my GTX 1050 lagged and gave me lags and hitches in editing, I am glad that this RTX 3060 has been cheesing through After Effects and 1440p video edits on Premiere Pro. GAMING: Gaming performance is a solid 10/10, atleast if you run games without RT on 1080. It can handle RT in most games without hiccups, but some newer games might give lower FPS. But without RT it can basically steamroll through any game till date (December 2024), so I am more than satisfied with the performance. For reference I have tested these games on this GPU (all 1080p max settings) 1. Control - 110+ fps ; 55-65 fps (with RT) 2. Crysis Remastered - 130+ fps (no RT) ; 75-85 fps (with RT) 3. Halo Infinite - 150+ fps
