Based on the Ampere architecture and designed to handle the graphical demands of 1080p at high frame rates as well as 1440p gaming, the ASUS GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Dual White Edition GPUbrings the power of real-time ray tracing and AI to your PC games. The GPU features 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM and a 256-bit memory interface, offering improved performance and power efficiency over the previous Turing-based generation.

The front panel of the card features a variety of outputs, such as DisplayPort 1.4a and HDMI 2.1. HDMI 2.1 supports up to 48 Gb/s bandwidth and a range of higher resolutions and refresh rates, including 8K at 60fps, 4K at 120fps, and even up to 10K. The RTX 3060 Ti is not just about high-resolution gaming. Computationally intensive programs can utilize the GPU's 4864 cores to accelerate tasks using CUDA and other APIs. For cooling, ASUS implemented dual Axial-tech fans, providing improved airflow and dispersion.

The NVIDIA Ampere architecture can deliver twice the FP32 throughput of the previous generation. Its 2nd Gen RT cores provide enhanced ray tracing and shading while its 3rd Gen Tensor Cores can run AI-powered technologies efficiently.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX platform enables real-time ray tracing of objects and environments with physically accurate shadows, reflections, refractions, and global illumination.

NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is AI rendering that boosts frame rates while still providing optimal image quality using the dedicated AI processing Tensor Cores on the GeForce RTX platform. This gives you the performance you need to maximize ray tracing settings and resolutions for an immersive visual experience.

The HDMI 2.1 interface provides increased bandwidth, allowing a single cable to output to 8K HDR TVs for ultra-high-resolution gaming.

Q: 1. Is this non LHR?

A: All newly manufactured RTX 3080, 3070, and 3060 Ti GPUs are lite hash rate.

Q: 2. ASUS website says "Warranty period may differ regionally, please check with your purchase Site". What is the warranty period on this item?

A: The ASUS RTX 3060 Dual V2 OC Edition comes with a limited 3-year warranty from Asus.

Q: 3. Is this compatible with a Dell XPS 8940 with a 500W PSU?

A: The recommended PSU wattage for the ASUS GeForce RTX 3060 Dual V2 OC Graphics Card is 650W; I wouldn't recommend using it in a PC with a 500W PSU.

Q: 4. Does the card support SLI and dual cards?

A: The ASUS GeForce RTX 3060 Dual V2 OC Graphics Card is not SLI compatible, but can sit alongside a second card in a system that supports it.

Q: 5. Do you recommand this card for using with DaVinci Resolve? From your experience would you recommand an other card?

A: For DaVinci Resolve, the ASUS GeForce RTX 4060 Ti ProArt OC 16GB Graphics Card is a good option. If you use intensive and complex graphics and effects, you could also consider a more powerful graphics card, like the ASUS GeForce RTX 4070 Ti ProArt Graphics Card, B&H # ASPAR4070T12.

Q: 6. Over-heating problems in 3060 Series -- Does ASUS have that problem? There are many recent reports in AskUbuntu about this problem, anybody who has purchased this card have had these problems?

A: The ASUS GeForce RTX 3060 Dual V2 OC Graphics Card (B&H # ASDR3060O122) is not known to have any significant overheating problems unique to the 3060 series. To avoid overheating, it is best to stick to safe installation practices and to avoid forcing parts into housing that may be too small or have poor airflow.

Q: 7. I like the small size, but won't it be too loud/hot compared to ~3,5 slot design of the gaming versions?

A: While larger 3.5 slot GPUs doe have larger cooling systems, they are not necessarily going generate less heat or be less noisy than their smaller counterparts. Each GPU is designed with the optimal cooling and size for it's own needs, and the ASUS GeForce RTX 4070 Ti ProArt OC Graphics Card is no different.

Q: 8. How is this any different than any other RTX 4070 Ti? This "ProArt" version looks like a pure marketing thing.

A: Different variants or brands of the same GPU will be largely similar, with only slight differences allowed by Nvidia. The most common difference is maximum overclock speed; the ASUS GeForce RTX 4070 Ti ProArt OC has a maximum OC speed of 2760 MHz, whereas the ROG Strix version for example has a max OC speed of 2640 MHz. This is largely of interest to enthusiasts and "power users" who like to get the maximum possible performance from their hardware, but it is largely unimportant to the average user.

Q: 9. I have Hp g4 z4 xenon with 750w Psu. Will the 6pin to 8pin adapter you sell work? Thanks Bob

A: I do not recommend using a 6-pin to 8-pin adapter with the RTX 3060 Ti. The RTX 3060 Ti is designed to use up to 200 W of power, and a 6-pin connection from the power supply will not be able to provide enough power to the card.

Q: 10. Are there any limitations on this card for using with ASUS Rog Strix motherboard?

A: The ASUS GeForce RTX 4060 Ti ProArt OC 16GB Graphics Card can be used with any motherboard that has a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot.
