Today we are seeing NVIDIA launch their fifth graphics card as part of their RTX 30 series, the RTX 3060. The RTX 30 series has been extremely popular for NVIDIA, bringing with it great performance at very good prices. The biggest problem right now is finding cards, hopefully we will see more inventory with the RTX 3060. NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 3060 will feature 3584 CUDA cores, 112 Tensor cores, 112 TMUs, 48 ROPs, and an interesting 12GB of GDDR6 memory running across a 192-bit memory interface. On the test bench today is EVGA’s GeForce RTX 3060 XC Gaming which will feature a boost clock of 1882 MHz (GPU Boost), a sleek design with full metal backplate, and dual-fan cooling solution. Is this the RTX 3060 you need to get? Read on as we find out!
Special thanks to EVGA for providing us with the RTX 3060 XC Gaming Graphics Card to review.
Specifications
Packaging
The EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 XC comes in EVGA’s standard retail packaging. Their box design is a little different than most as the box has more of a vertical design. On the front we have a shot of the card and it lets us know we do indeed have the RTX 3060.
Flipping over to the back we have a list of features and some of the main NVIDIA features are detailed.
Opening the box up and getting everything out we have the RTX 3060 XC Gaming graphics card, an installation guide, and a 20% off coupon for the EVGA XR1.
