The TechPowerUp review of the EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 XC highlights its impressive performance, being faster than the RTX 2070 and 20% faster than the RTX 2060. It boasts features like 12 GB VRAM, efficient cooling, and overclocking potential. However, its cooler is relatively louder, and it faces supply constraints impacting its pricing and availability. Ideal for 1440p gaming without raytracing or 1080p with high refresh rates, it offers hardware-accelerated raytracing, DLSS support, and HDMI 2.1. Overall, the RTX 3060 offers a strong value proposition in its segment.
