Just managed to pre-order this,
Review here say's it quiet...

There were complaints of the zotac 3070 twin edge being loud and now the 3060ti has a similar but slightly smaller cooler with much the same power output(200 vs 220 watts from the board)
Many of the of the triple fan 3060ti and 3070 are really quiet and the zotac is definitely louder than these but may not be excessively loud, people could be exaggerating.
I'll see what it's like when I get mine, I hope that the 3060ti runs well with undervolted. An undervolt my 1070 fe make it possible for me to run a much lower fan speed than stock.

I do hope this is a mistake

2569 RPM under load would be too loud

I agree with Skyboy. 3060Ti isnt for 4k, but it is OK for 1440p IMHO. You arent going to get really high framerates in 1440p without turning down settings in some games. If you want high fps and 1440p jump up to the 3070 or beyond. If you dont care about fps much and 60 or even lower is acceptable to you, the 3060ti will serve you just fine, even in 4k.

What kind of GPU chip power draw are people getting in GPU-Z on their FEs? Mine is only around 180W which seems quite low? That’s with the power limit at 110% in afterburner too.

Yep it's about that. I'm currently running mine undervolted at around 115-120w

Ah ok good.

I’m getting VRel perfcap on Warzone too which is strange as I have a 750W PSU.

Oh, I had Heaven running at the same time as Warzone

If that kind of undervolt is common and not just that you were lucky to get a very high quality chip then there should be no issue with the ones that come with a smaller cooler.

So I managed to grab myself one of the 3060tis. Have other people's cards shipped yet out of curiosity?

mad_weegie · 4 Dec 2020 at 16:27

Not yet Nicky.

There is a backlog of previous orders shipping first.

Ordered last night and no sign of shipping yet.

See the owners thread, but this is with reduced clocks as well. To around 2080 performance levels.

Managed to overclock the core by 160, and memory 1200 gives me the best Heaven scores so far whilst being stable in everything I’ve tested. Boosts to 2145 almost constantly at 58 degrees (85% fan speed). This is with 110% power limit. Very pleased.

Have you done any game benchmarks? I'm gonna bench some games with my 1070 and then with the 3060 compare results.

Not yet. Just played a bit of Warzone and didn’t pay too much attention to the FPS. I’ll run the Shadow of War bench later this evening.

It’s a bit quicker than my RX570

i thought the FE 3060ti was plain silver and a lighter colour than the 3070 ?

I could well be, I built a system the other week with the 3070 FE for my mate, but they look the same... maybe I'd need them side by side to tell

chaotic_uk · 4 Dec 2020 at 18:31

to be honest i wish i had not bothered with the 3060Ti , i should have aimed a little higher and save the extra needed rofl

(to late now me thinks , as it is waiting to be shipped)

I'm a little unsure too, I had the choice of a 3060ti zotac for £470 or a 3070 gigabyte for £580. In the short term the 3060 ti is plenty but it's not a long term solution for me. Little to no chance of getting a 3080 this side of Christmas.

If I'm not happy with the Zotac I'll just play Cyberpunk on it and sell on for RRP or slightly under. I doubt there will be any problem selling at close to RRP even in January - February.
