My 3060ti rocks - is there something better @ 399?

easyrider · 31 Dec 2021 at 02:55

Got a 3060ti FE for £369

What’s my upgrade 2 years on ?

thanks

Is this a rhetorical question?

nope, took myself out of the loop.

Check out my Pollytunnel thread and stuff.

Not sure about the 2 years - 3060ti has barely been out 1 year.

Even second hand you are gonna struggle to get anything half as fast as your existing GPUs at £399 except the FE 3060ti.

What happened to the easy rider shuffle? I remember that thread. :cry:

Maybe see what Intel come up with? Probably won't be cheap though, unless it doesn't perform as well as expected.

yeah odd thread. Nothing touches the FE price, maybe pirate the @TNA shuffle then?

Will probably get back your full fe price in 2 years time if you sell

Funny thing is it is easier than ever to do it right now.

I sold my 3080 FE for silly moneys and will probably do the same with my 3070 once I get one of the new Super FE cards when they come out. You get to use the card, upgrade it and make a profit. Easy shuffle! Or pirate shuffle? @gpuerrilla :cry:

I am going for a 3070 Ti 16GB FE soon and will upgrade that to a 4070 FE. You lost your touch it seems and stuck doing the five knuckle shuffle…

I think the sequence would then be:

Secure a 3080FE drop (costs 649)
List ti on thon bay BIN (sell 700)

pirate TNA shuffle complete! you have £50 and now a 3080 instead of the Ti.

What happens when you Pollytunnel and stuff I guess..

eBay tho.... /shudder

Good luck not getting scammed, because the buyer is always right. You can send them a GPU, they claim you sent them a brick, eBay refunds them and you are screwed.

Seen it soooo many times.

Yea, I would never do that. Not taking chances on there.

Still laughing at the easy shuffle. Has to be a wind up post.

varkanoid · 31 Dec 2021 at 12:59

I wouldnt say a having a 3060ti makes you "out of the loop".

gpuerrilla · 31 Dec 2021 at 13:10

The easyrider shuffle- Many of you have failed....

Cyber-Mav · 31 Dec 2021 at 13:11

Do fe 3060ti and 3070 also suffer from vram temps due to pads not being thick enough?

My FE 3060TI runs very, very hot. I keep meaning to under-volt it, when I get around to it.

It's by far the hottest running card I've ever had. Put my hand over the exhaust and it's scalding. Seriously hot.
