NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
The GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is a GPU from NVIDIA released in 2020. This chip has a very good gaming score at 65% in our GPU benchmark.
The GeForce RTX 3060 Ti has 8 GiB of GDDR6 memory, with a total memory bandwidth of 437 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 256 bits. When choosing a GPU, plan ahead and select a model with enough memory for your needs. High resolutions such as 4K require significantly more memory than 1080p as there is more data to display on the screen.
In terms of clock speed, the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GPU core runs at a frequency of 1410 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 1665 MHz. A clock speed is the frequency at which the GPU updates. A higher speed means more processing can happen per cycle. This is useful only when comparing cards of the same generation, as other architectures may process more or less per clock.
As for rendering API support, the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.6 features are supported. Newer APIs are usually more efficient, allowing for better performance in games and better graphical effects.
This chip has a Thermal Design Power of 200W: the total amount of waste heat generated. A card that runs hotter will need better cooling and will draw more power from the wall.
