In our review of this card’s bigger brother, we described the RTX 3070 as “the new 1440p king” - and that title hasn’t been assailed by this release despite its decent 1440p chops. Similar is true in new entry Valhalla, too, though that game runs slightly slower in general.
3060 TI GRAPHICS CARD 1080P
Drop down further to 1080p and suddenly you have frames in the 80s, sometimes even stretching up to around 100fps. Drop down to 1440p and you can enjoy stable play at over 60fps. At 4K, the 3060 Ti always delivers in excess of 30fps but always well below 60, mostly hovering in the middle of that. If we hop over to a game with more modest performance like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey with Ultra settings, that resolution impact is again made clear.
Go all the way up to 4K and you’ll still scrape a comfortable and solid 60fps - though barely. At 1440p, expect to hover around or slightly beneath the 100fps mark - still impressive. At 1080p it smashes the 120 frames per second barrier, outperforming the last-generation 2080 Super by 5-10 fps. It also proves a solid example of how resolution affects this cheaper card’s performance. This is a game that all of the current-generation cards can comfortably max out with all of the bells and whistles, and the 3060 Ti falls in right where you’d expect. That claim was borne out nicely in our testing, so long as you have realistic expectations about in-game settings, in particular resolution. This follows with the rest of the 30 series, where even the lower-end cards offer significant performance boosts over significantly pricier last generation cards. Nvidia’s shouty statistic this time around is that the 3060 Ti is faster than last generation’s RTX 2080 Super. But can you get next-generation performance from it? Well, sort of - it depends on your outlook. If you can get your hands on one - which will surely be a challenge based on the stock shortages of other cards - the RTX 3060 Ti will set you back $399 / £369, putting it quite a clip cheaper than trying to lay your hands on a new next-generation console.

That’s why, when Nvidia revealed the new GeForce RTX 3070, 3080, and 3090, a certain subset of gamers immediately asked one question: when’s the 3060? Well, the answer is now, with the release of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti - the cheapest current-generation card Nvidia has on offer, but nevertheless an impressively powerful piece of kit. Hardware generations are generally pretty predictable. Nvidia's cheapest 30-series card yet offers ray tracing on a budget - and a strong performance leap on its predecessor.
