Customers are impressed with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING OC 12GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card's performance, especially at 1080p/1440p gaming resolutions, and its effective cooling system. Positive feedback also highlights the card's ability to handle ray tracing and deliver high frame rates. However, some customers find the price to be higher than expected compared to other similar cards on the market.
Picked this out on a whim when Best Buy had a drop. Had it for a few weeks now and it’s holding strong. Temps are low, and coming from a 1050ti this things is awesome. I can play everything on ultra settings. Obviously certain games are going to have frame low FPS. But I can get 75-90 FPS on warzone, and with dlss on I get 144. Nvidia filters make the game look even better. It was an easy installation as well. Enjoy the rgb on the card too. Only issue I’ve found is it maxes out the clock on Cold War. But I think that was my mistake. I was messing around with the settings and I’ll have to troubleshoot that

I've had this card for a full 24 hours now. I've been waiting for Best Buy drops since launch to get my hands on a 6800xt or a 3080, but this little gem was what I got lucky with for now. I'll trade up once the opportunity presents itself. Here's my take. Rock solid 1080p/1440p gaming. I've gone from an XFX RX570 > XFX RX580 > Gigabyte RTX 3060 OC. In this current climate I paid (from best buy) $360 for the 570, $450 for the 580, and $480 for this 3060. From that standpoint It's an outstanding deal for this card considering what people are selling these for online. In a normal world, still overpriced. IMO, this card performs extremely well. I've been throwing all my games at it at 1440p max settings and haven't dipped below 60 fps. (though i know some games certainly will) My monitors tap out at 144hz so that's the ceiling I've set for all games. Outside of stress testing (64c tops), it hasn't gone above 59c gaming. Stays super cool (idle at 33c) and since my 580 was a furnace that loved to stay at 79c gaming; my CPU temps have also now dropped 5c during gaming and idle is down to 28c. ONLY complaint: You can get a 3060TI for closer to $400 while this is a full $80 above that and performs worse, I have no cons to complain about. This is a powerhouse. It's the runt of the 30 series family but an outstanding card nonetheless. If you can, buy it. Don't second guess because by the time you do, it's out of stock :)

It looks big, runs cool, has a bit of RGB and slays 1440p gaming. Great card for the price!
