Pros: - hits that 1440p/144hz sweet spot with ease
- cool and quiet
- solid and quality built all round
- pictures look good but even better in person
- cool lighting options or just turn it off
- Almost a 2080Ti, very little between them
Cons: - pricey
- heavy
- larger then it needed to be
Overall Review: Very pleasantly surprised by this big, beautiful beast. Has been significantly faster than my 5700xt, around 30% in most cases. Which is just about what I needed. The cons are nit picking other than price relative to other models. I really don't see any so far. The performance for the price is still pretty remarkable.
Out of the box it runs a cool 60 degrees under full load, quietly. Very high to ultra still hitting my frame limits. SOTR, Warzone, Cold War, The Forzas and so on.
I wanted an RX6800. I don't anymore. This is much cheaper and fast enough. More than 8gb of memory isn't required for almost any games and only @4K where it is. Easily compensated for with little sacrifice if encountered at all. Unless you need a lot of workstation VRAM not a problem. This isn't a 4K card, though it'll do it pretty well too.
This really is the perfect 1440p high refresh rate card. Very pleased so far. It beats the 2080S and trades blows with the 2080Ti, beating it at times. Very cool.

Pros: -great overclocking headroom; I hit 2130 MHz max core boost and 7800 MHz on memory-runs quiet and cool; my card has never gone over 65 Celsius with the huge three fan cooler-amazing looking RGB and optional dual BIOS and PWN fan headers on card-absolutely amazing 1080p/1440p performance at refresh rates of 144 Hz +-insanely cool ROG engineer ruler included
Cons: -a little bit more expensive than Founder's Edition or AIB 3060 Tis
Overall Review: I would heavily recommend this card to others. If you can find one around MSRP in this crazy mining and pandemic market, by all means purchase away. The card overclocks like a champ and runs whisper quiet due to the 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080, and 3090 Strix cards all sharing the same cooling design, and it looks absolutely stunning with its RGB front panel and RGB fans. The silver accenting also looks great with more white focused builds. If you can get one of these ROG Strix 3060 Tis, consider yourself lucky as I do!
Premium card. Overkill cooling.1/13/2021 8:50:59 AM
Pros: - This card has great cooling and can run nearly silent while gaming, though it does make noise if the fans are maxed out.
- Overclocks very nicely, you can get it running to around a 3070's base level
- Looks premium and is made of metal
Cons: - It's big. Check your case clearance. Consider a GPU support arm.
- The cooler is really overkill for the tier of card it is. If you want to spend this much on a card, you might be better off with a 3070.
Overall Review: This is probably the best 3060 TI you can buy. It has great cooling and overclocking potential. If you're someone who cares a lot about build quality and cooling, this is an excellent card for that, and the 3060 TI is no slouch, especially with some overclocking.
I bought this because it was the only card I could get my hands on, but I'm satisfied with what I got for the extra cost over the Founders Edition. I probably would have gotten a 3070 if I had the choice, but if you want a 3060 TI, this is an excellent model of that card.
Just beware of how big it is - it's nearly 3 slots and is very long. It's taller than an Xbox Series X - see photo.
Pros: Runs very cool, 55-57c at 100% load
Great frame rate at 1080p I’m getting around 150fps at ultra in call of duty, WoW, and close to 100fps in ultra ray trace in cyberpunk.
Cons: It so big had to take a fan outta my case to fit but that’s my fault because my case said it wouldn’t fit. But man I squeezed it it there.
Pros: - hits that 1440p/144hz sweet spot with ease - cool and quiet - solid and quality built all round - pictures look good but even better in person - cool lighting options or just turn it off - Almost a 2080Ti, very little between them
