Just bought this card and picked it up today, I’m super lucky and grateful, the reason I picked it up was because of the price to performance, where I bought the lowest priced in stock card was 600 CAD I paid an extra 89 CAD for the 3 fans and to stick with the theme of my new PC I’m building, there was a 5% tax to make it in total 725 CAD, but if you don’t include the tax the extra 89 CAD was worth it for the cooler temps, performance, and overall look!

      I have just checked pricing for 4080. And I'm like, 'No, thank you'.
      Second hand 3060Ti Strix OC Edition is now a mass murder in terms of price/performance ratio. On top of that, its power draw is super reasonable.
      Top tier RTX 4000 series cards are overpriced beyond imagination. I hope that Nvidia regains sanity and releases 4060 and 4070 without crazy price tags.

      @@ZachWackAttack And I doubt they will ever be in stock. If Nvidia plans to drop 4060 and 4070 in January 2023, it would have been stupid for retailers to even try restocking 3060 and 3070 line-ups. Of course, that depends on low/mid-range RTX 4000 series pricing.
      If these cards are disproportionally expensive, and it's likely, then restocking 3060 and 3070 would have made sense.
      However, I'm expecting Nvidia to kill the supply of older chips, so they can push 4060 and 4070 down our throats, regardless of the pricing.
      One might say that AMD cards are a pretty decent alternative... Maybe, if they were available... Even second hand.
      At this point, it's easier to find good value second hand RTX 2000 and 3000-series cards, like 2080Ti and 3060Ti, sometimes even 3070Ti, than anything else.
      On a side note, I haven't bought a single brand-new graphics card since 2015. Every single one that went through my PC case within past 8 years period was used.
      I like when other people take depreciation on their shoulders. I also like when they desperately sell stuff for much less than the actual market value.
      It takes time and patience, but it's a cost-effective method.

  • @AllOutNoobHater

    One thing I don't like about the design, is the fact that the 2 8-pin connectors have a large gap to the left of them. It's as if they either planned for a third connector or just reused the same boards from 3090 down and just didn't use that space for an extra port. It just has a large gap that makes it appear unfinished or uneven, while the entire card is practically symmetrical.

You'll have issues with RAM clearance, you can't reach the PCIe slot release to remove the graphics card unless you remove a fan (usually) etc. If you already have a cooler use whatever, but if you're considering a new purchase I'd go AIO every time.
      I bought the Noctua because I thought it might be quieter since there's no pump, but nope. The noise was still from the fans, not the pump, and I had to set a custom fan curve to basically make the fans not spin up until 60 C (since my Ryzen 3900X will sometimes have one core cycle up to 56C for a fraction of a second before it drops back down to 35-40C, and that makes the fans go crazy).

Definitely not worth it considering a 360mm aio are easily $150 and the dark rock pro 4 was $70 and can easily cool even an OCd 10900k. Plus not many cases can fit a 360mm rad while an air cooler is much more universal and are much less complicated with little points of failure. Ram clearance isn't really an issue either, you can move the fan up and it fits easily assuming your sticks aren't massive

    The higher end AIB's generally have a larger profit margin, and since silicon is limited they really have no reason not to only make high end models as they will sell regardless, I agree with the clock speed though, it's really not special, not bad either, cards not a dud but it's more on the expected end of a average card. It all comes down to silicon lottery though, many years back I bought a 980ti, those cards where known to overclock 250-350mhzs over spec if not higher. Just really good headroom, and mine was a below average (a EVGA Classified model) and only hit 1367 while being a higher end model itself, still over spec but below the average. My friend who bought a cheaper Gigabyte model was lucky and his overclocked to 1570 lol
    That's like an amazing overclock for those cards even water cooled and he had an air cooler, my new 3060ti FE can match this cards clock and go slightly higher, and I don't consider mine special by any means. Kinda sad I guess, it wasn't uncommon to get 15-20% extra performance overclocking back 6-7 years ago.

      @@MWalsh1992 I'm probably one of the few people you heard who has 1 that paid the retail price for it lol. I definitely see a difference in performance. It's not like night & day but I get almost 200 fps on high settings not OC. I got it because they were impossible to get and it was a Founders Addition. I love the aesthetics of the card. I heard the 3080FE ran little hot, I would of had to upgrade my power supply and It was just overkill for me.

    Dude, you can’t even buy a 1080ti or 2080 for $1000 so to pay only $500$-700 for a 3060ti would be great. Nobody is buying a 3060 or a 3070 for $400 or $500
