£480 for the Phantom Gaming! :cry:

The Sapphire Pulse looks like the best option. If you look at the photos, it uses the exact same heatsink as the Nitro version, so I don't know why you'd pay £25 more for some RGB lighting.

/edit/ Oh wait, didn't see the Dual for £330. Yeah, that's the best one.

Think I got the Asus Dual OC for £330.00 unless they over-sold and I was too slow.

2607 boost clock is about as high as they go so looked like the best one for the price.

Hi there

We did, well Briony did some internal testing on the card here at OcUK, AMD have marketed this card as 1080P hardcore gamer, but in our testing its actually a fine 1440P card also. :)

I looked at the stock and in the end the price of the zotac 3060Ti at £440 seemed to make massive more sense. It’s just significantly better.

I did consider the Zotac 3060Ti though I'm not sure I like the look of it.

A small aspect but nonetheless I prefer to like the aesthetics of the card despite not seeing it much once installed.

This, the performance between them makes the 3060Ti seem like such a better buy. Even the FE 3060 Ti are what, £369 RRP or there abouts?

It’s not the most attractive card but do you really want to spend another £150-200 on a card with the same chip just for the aesthetics…

Yeah, I can see your point. I think I'll hang on for now.

I did also look at the 3060 but as someone said, the Ti makes more sense (roughly 2080Ti perf.).

I think you should be OK, we are still downloading orders, but Asus gave us 30 cards at a discounted rate to hit MSRP and we have like 100 in total, other 70 cards at much higher cost to us, but if we oversell we will just ship out of the higher priced inventory. :)

More like 2080 Super performance. The Ti is a good bit faster. Still a good deal at RRP though. Wouldn't want one of those Zotac Twin Edge cards though, as they have a design flaw that causes the heatsink to rattle. Unless they fixed it on the LHR version, but it looks the same.
