It’s enough for any game now and for the foreseeable future and its capable of perfectly smooth high detail 1080p gaming. That 12GB of VRAM is nice to have though. As a result it's really best considered an upgrade for users of older generation cards. In fact while the far stronger RTX 3060 Ti matches the 2080 Super, the RTX 3060 only just manages to beat the 2060 Super. We hoped to see something like RTX 2070 Super class performance, but it's not to be. Like its big brothers, the RTX 3060 brings better ray tracing performance and superior technology support, including more advanced Tensor cores and an upgraded video engine. The overall gaming performance of the RTX 3060 is decent, even if it doesn’t thrill us like the other Ampere cards did. Display outputs consist of now standard single HDMI 2.1 port along with three DisplayPort v1.4a ports.

The 12GB of GDDR6 memory is clocked at 15Gbps effective. The card features a factory overclock with a rated boost clock of 1,837MHz, though as is often the case with modern GPUs, it will boost a lot higher than this unless you are using a case with severely restricted airflow. Interestingly, MSI chose to include both six and eight pin power connectors which would appear unnecessary when a single eight pin, plus the power from the slot would actually suffice. There’s really no need for an over-engineered PCB on this class of card. It features a compact PCB with a six-phase VRM-one phase less than the Gaming X Trio. The MSI Gaming X sits near the top of MSI's RTX 3060 product stack, above the Ventus and below the Gaming X Trio. It makes the faster Ampere cards look a little under-spec. Then there’s the most eye-popping feature of the RTX 3060: The 12GB of memory it carries. These differences explain the significant performance gap between the two cards.

The Ti also features a 256-bit bus compared to the 192-bit bus of the RTX 3060. Outputs: 3x Display Port 1.4, 1x HDMI 2.1
