Don't give up, I landed this 3060 on my first drop watch. Sure I was hoping for a 3070 or 80 but this card performs awesome in MSFS 2020 in ultra settings. So impressed, and I finally completed my build. Thanks Best Buy for treating us fairly, and not marking up the cost to some ridiculous amount beyond MSRP.

Loving what this card brings to my build. Alongside my Ryzen 3600 this power train has plenty to keep my games and music production hickup free. Had to fight to get it but with alil research and persistence I got this GPU at a good price and not too much above MSRP. Kudos BestBuy for having a fair system that works.

This little beast can deliver cyberpunk on 2k with RTX on in Ultra with 100+fps. I thought only the 30170 or 3080 could do that but 3060 is more than enough for my gaming needs and with the 12gb of VRAM i an good to go for my video editing and render

Paid less than retail. Had a $50 off code and a $5 coupon. Was able to get this gpu thru with ifixifixifix YouTube stock alert channel. Full disclosure...i have now 3 30-series cards, Founders 3090, Vision 3060Ti and this Ventus 3060. I have 3 pcs at home and 1 at work. I still need 1 more for the last pc in my house. Kids use the 3060ti and a crappy gtx 745 still. I use 3090 for my home rig overkill gaming setup and the ventus 3060 at work. Im a communication engineer using cad programs. My work pc runs 3 monitors and at least 13 program windows running at the same time. The ventus 3060 keeps up perfectly. On gaming its over 120 fps on warzone with all high/ultra settings at 1080p. The cpu is the i7-4790 and bottlenecks at 100% in my work pc so you can definitely expect higher numbers with newer CPU's. This pc is from 2015 and cpu only has 4 cores. Warzone is the only game ive tested at 1080p on this gpu. Good luck to all.

Not a good value for the price. Waited 7 hours in line and this was the only thing available. I was upgrading from a GTX 1070 FE when I purchased this card. Let me start by saying almost everything in my computer from motherboard to case is MSI brand. I love the premium feel of the products. Unfortunately I just didn't see that from this graphics card. For the look and feel of the card MSI chose a flimsy plastic cover,No Led light, just a cheaply looking painted logo. Moving past the look and feel to heat. Remember I moved from a 1070FE if you remember correctly these cards come with blower fans. They say blower fans severely lack in cooling vs traditional fans. Well with this new card after installing the 3060 my temps on my everything in the case increased by 20c underload. This isn't my first build and I understand push and pull configuration with fans this thing is just a little heater. Moving on to performance the 3060 performs very similar to the 1070 despite being a few gens apart. I seen very little performance increase from switching cards. Overall the 3060 with 12GB is just a gimmick. Its for the average consumer that wouldn't understand why a 12gb 3060 doesn't out perform a 10gb 3080. Don't pay premium for this card its a waste a decent second-hand 10 series card can easily out perform this card for a few hundred less.

Great entry level card. Knocks the socks off my previous card from 5 years ago, and did so without breaking the bank. I'm happy with my purchase.

This card is a monster for the price to performance. Basically I got this knowing it would perform around a 2070 super to 2070 regular. It is literally on par with the two at a smaller size less power. Love it we swapped out a 1650 in a pre-built HP running a 1650. We noticed it had 1 8 pin Pcie power and wanted to really push it. Works like a charm.

These are good cards. Probably the best *local* pricing for performance. They show up about once a week. I checked this afternoon and one of my local stores had one in stock.... quick road trip. I'm wary of 3 fan cards, I've never seen the 3rd fan come on while running a game. This seems like a good sweet spot, coming from 580's and 1060's. I have a 1080 that has a bad fan, but it limps on just fine in the temp range. Bottom line, even at retail, if you find one, buy it now!

As some of the others reviews have said its not the would be my first choice but...… For the price especially in the dark ages of no cards anywhere its very good for 1440p . 4k not so much (depending on the game of course) but Coming from an old 1080 it seem much smoother in everything and the dlss rtx voice is a nice touch.

Using this i immediately noticed the difference but then I realized that i would also need to get more ram to have my computer to run smoother but for now im enjoy it

Good card if you get it for a good price, I’d go for a 3060ti if you can afford it because the performance is so much better

Equivalent to a 1080 i ended up upgrading to a 3070ti. Only got this because it was my only choice when rebuilding a pc at the height of the video card shortage. Good for a budget build.

3060 gives about 31-32hr on ethereum. 3060ti is more reasonable.
