now when the 6000 series return to normal the wallet will come out cobwebs and all

now if they put 12gb on the 3070/ti i would have been tempted

Okay so now that I've ordered one - do you have any info on timescale? Even the most vague guess would provide some insight for me as I've no clue.

Edit? 2 Weeks? I expected 2 months.

Around two weeks, Zotac are shipping some this weekend so maybe sooner.

Will the Inno 3d's definitely be more like 2 weeks?

I've just realised that the coolers on the standard card and the OC card are not actually the same.

Damn.

It was definitely worth the extra few quid for a better cooler. Too late now!

It's Nice to see lower end cards coming Back.

Look the same to me. Both have the standard Twin X2.

@Gibbo Cheers mate saw these at work managed to bag one I think. Our lead building means my phones 4g is like its back in 1996. £20 quid more than I wanted to spend on a GPU but in the current market cant really moan and free delivery - nice one by you guys

Not sure why you'd actually need 12GB ? The higher bandwidth GDDR6X VRAM on the 3070TI makes up for it.

Are you sure? The product page shows the same info for the cooler on the inno 3d website.

Head over to Inno3d website and compare the two in different tabs. When you scroll down you'll see the cooler designs in more detail.

The OC card has a significantly better heatpipe design and more surface area.

You are right.

That cooler does look a bit pants. I was under the impression it was the same cooler.

Why would they bother with giving that such a naff cooler? Even their 3060 OC model has the better cooler.
