Nvidia 3060 release date and time

[no_1_dave]

Doesnt look like great performance for the money when you could've had almost the same 2 years ago with the 2060

Yeah, but on the other-hand it's only a smidge faster than a 2060S.

It's a good chunk faster than a 2060S, over 50% faster in some cases at 1080p
It sits comfortably faster than a 1080ti with the added benefit of DLSS

It's a good buy at RRP, roughly the same price as a second hand 1080ti but with more performance and warranty.

It won't be RRP though, but then all cards are extortionate right now

I think they are not going to be sold out as quickly as expected.

People are paying over £800 for used 5700 XTs, and up to a grand for 3060 Tis. This card will be gone in seconds, including the £500+ variants.

it's just a crazy market for all these hot commodities, Nintendo Switch, ring fitness, PS5, Xbox, rolex, GPU CPU anything that can make a quick buck on while people are bored working from home/jobless.

still a large number of people waiting to upg from 10 series so 3060 will likely to be hot and scarce upon release.

So in 40mins this should be fun to watch ...overpriced weak card sells out

 

[lsg1r]

you've got 50 mins to figure out where to get a 3060 for 300 quid

If it's the store I'm thinking of with the price in the description... those prices have magically started disappearing from the descriptions in the last 10 mins.

There isn't a chance in hell of them being sold at rrp and as much as I would like to grab one (still going to take a look) as a hold me over (want a full system upgrade but no stock) there isn't a chance I'm paying more than rrp for it.

I might try to buy one just for the sport of it....

 

[Cyber-Mav]

Hmm not a fully unlocked ga106 core. Wonder if there will be a super model that comes out with fully unlocked core...

 

[qqmoo]

lets see how many sites get crashed. false stock alert already destroyed one 15 mins before release.

 

[Odirse]

Let's get the popcorn ready...

 

[WildRAID]

Well.. everything is gone in 1 minute. Biggest competitor websites are down or showing errors.

Fun.

Thanks God I don't need to buy anything. But just witnessing this madness is some sort of entertainment.

 

[Alex Lambert]

Yep the ruby murray place website died a death

 

[joeyssc]

Didn't stand a chance as fast as they came online they was gone

 

[Jimmy Weirdarms]

No FE on the plain 3060?

I guess the gettin's too good on the partner cards. "£299" paper launch with the cheapest one I could see selling at £360, and some over £500. The GPU market is *insane*. And this isn't even a particularly powerful card...

 

[PeegeeTips]

lol, they came. they went.

mortal man could not click fast enough...

 

[decto]

I went to one website where they had an MSRP card..... none of those.
The did have a few models but all at 3060Ti launch prices.

 

[Martini1991]

Lol what even was that.

 

[Alex Lambert]

I just don't understand - how is it even possible?

 

[SkillTim]

10 minutes in an they are still in stock in most places. Told you they won't shift them like before.

 

[Alex Lambert]

Not seeing this?

Just seeing dead websites!

 

[Scooby-DoobyDoo]

I think there is something wrong with the websites especially the '2' key as the £299 is showing at £499 / £489 :/

 

[decto]

I just don't understand - how is it even possible?

50k people an 1k bots fighting over 500 cards
