The new GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is Nvidia's latest $400 GPU designed to replace the RTX 2060 Super. The RTX 3060 Ti should be a substantial upgrade as in terms of specs it sits somewhat close to the excellent RTX 3070.

The 3070 seems to have no reason to exist anymore.
3060 will get u features like dlss 2.0 and 12% percent less perf for 20% less msrp.
As a 5500XT 4GB owner, this would be a very good update to get to 1440p gaming.I'm impressed that you're getting superior performance to the 2080 Super in a $400 card... of course, if you owned the 2080 or 2080 Super, you're probably pretty annoyed by this...
I see no point in anything below the 3080 with the exception of GPU for laptops.
PC Gamers are chasing 4K 60fps and 120fps if possible.
Have to remember that @QuantumPhysics lives in an alternate reality where people usually spends $3k every year updating their builds for gaming, no point in anything below that.Only if they have deep pockets. Good quality 4k monitors with high refresh rates still aren't affordable.
While I'm personally with you in the 3080 camp, most people will get the 3060Ti and have a great time with it.
Not sure, but the 3070 FE looks very attractive to me after this review. The AIB OC models have a lower performance and higher power consumption than the 3070 FE.
If the tested AIB models are available for MSRP (once the market has settled), that would be an attractive price / perf option over the 3070FE, but given that they are at best only $50 less - or worst case same price, I‘d definitely get the 3070 FE over an AIB 3060 Ti.
Well given that 4k usage is below 5% of the total PC gamer market, there are plenty of people for whom the 3080 makes absolutely no sense in price/perf compared to a 3070 or 3060ti.I see no point in anything below the 3080 with the exception of GPU for laptops.

According to Steam survey, which is not definitive but somehow representative, its GTX1060 or 1050 Ti, so both under $150, the most affordable cards for people that actually live. American excluded, cause obviously Their income, and unicorns, are outside of the realm of regular people.Only if they have deep pockets. Good quality 4k monitors with high refresh rates still aren't affordable.

That's shocking. What games and what framerates?Nice to see all these reviews on hardware you can't get.
Also, I game just fine at 4K on an old 2070. The 3060 TI should be very capable at 4K.
Not sure if QP actually lives in luxury or lives in luxury fantasy, as we have no proof QP can actually purchase and own all the boastings so far. Any teen sitting in a grandparent's home basement at an ordinary neighbourhood can type anything similar. Just saying.Have to remember that @QuantumPhysics lives in an alternate reality where people usually spends $3k every year updating their builds for gaming, no point in anything below that.
Maybe, but why would I pay $500 for a 3060Ti AIB when I can get a 3070 FE for the same price that has better performance and lower power consumption ?You're not comparing apples to apples.
High end AIB models like these always allow higher power consumption for higher performance, hence the decent 9% OC on the ROG Strix. The 3070 AIB models are just the same and use more power than these 3060 Ti AIBs. If you want a lower power consumption 3060 Ti, get the 3060 Ti FE or an entry-level AIB 3060 Ti.
Or do it yourself: undervolt and underclock or OC your model and save 20-30% power with similar or higher performance. That's what I do with my 1080.
By the time you can find a 3060Ti, the 3060 Super will be announced.
