This isn't a bad price for a 3060, but it's still not a great value. You can occasionally find new rx 6600, which are less than 10% slower in 1080p gaming, for $180 or under. New rx 6600xt, which are very slightly faster than the 3060 in 1080p gaming, can be found at $200 or under, though stock at those prices seems to have mostly dried up.

There are some downsides to an amd rdna2 card even in this price tier, namely a lack of dlss and cuda. The 12gb of vram is mostly pointless on the 3060, since it lacks the performance to adequately play games that would use anywhere near that much. Likewise, the raytracing advantage is moot in this performance tier.

Ultimately, even at $245, unless you have non-gaming workloads that the 3060 would be beneficial for, at this price tier you would be better off getting an amd card.

The peanut gallery can never compare apples and oranges. They'll measure new prices vs used then whine about condition / warranty on used vs new. They want everything both ways. Said thing is they are still running a 8800 GTX waiting for that 'next' card to release

BTW, are we still saying "hOlD tHe LiNe BoYz" or is that over?

I have been eyeing the 3060 12GB GPUs for a while for AI experimentation. The trigger price for me is $250 or less for new. Thanks OP.

Bummer. I just picked up a used EVGA on ebay for a few bucks less.

The 3060 TI is likely a better choice when buying from the used market as these 3060's are not that large of a leap from the 2060's. The leap up to the 4060 does not seem that great either since the consensus is that the 4060 should have been named the 4050. Other than the addition of the 4-6GB of RAM.

That's the only reason why I went with the 3060 over the 4060 - that is selling locally on FB MP for around $245-260.
3060 ti is fine for gaming but if you do any video editing and want to do 4K the ti is no where near enough vram. The 12GB 3060 is really good for 4k because of the extra vram

Yes, the TI is what you want for gaming. The extra 4gb of vram here won't really do much good as you aren't going to be 4k gaming on this thing anyway. I have a 3060ti and I game at 1080p with ultra settings, DLSS on and ray tracing off.

bitcoin miners are starting to ramp up (currently targeting amd gpus), but that will affect entire market, so I'd say grab what you can and grab a raft!
I hope mining gets "Regulated" into the void.

Your 1080 is about equal with the 3060 on none ray tracing performance.

I'm not a hardcore gamer (primarily used for graphic design) and my 2060 died. Just looking to replace it with same or better. Don't have a big case or power supply so this seems like a decent option considering I'm not seeing anything better or cheaper in the local used market.
Good luck. May AI be with you.

I'm assuming he's talking about used. Ones on ebay for $279 ish. I've had both cards and as far as gaming the 3060 ti is about 20-25% faster and yes I'm using that term very vaguely.
