Amazing just great
No issues. Arrived so quickly. Installation was a breeze. I have no issues running any current games. There are some exceptions but for the most part this thing can handle just about any current game. No issues with overheating. I did buy this on sale but even for retail itâs a great pick for a GPU. You will have to upgrade eventually but it is worth the money and will last you a few years.

Fantastic Performance and Value for Gamers!
I recently upgraded to the MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 3060 12GB graphics card, and it has been a game-changer for my gaming and graphic-intensive tasks.**Performance:** The performance is outstanding. The RTX 3060 handles modern AAA titles at high settings with ease, delivering smooth and immersive gameplay. With 12GB of GDDR6 memory and 15 Gbps speeds, it can handle demanding tasks like video editing and 3D rendering efficiently.**Cooling:** The Torx Twin Fan design keeps the card cool under load. Even during extended gaming sessions, the temperatures remain within a safe range without excessive noise. The fans are quiet and effective, providing excellent thermal management.**Build Quality:** The build quality is impressive. The card feels solid and durable, with a sleek design that looks great in my PC case. The addition of a backplate provides extra rigidity and a premium feel.**Connectivity:** With multiple HDMI and DisplayPort outputs, connecting multiple monitors

Solid card for the price
Running this thing with a 5600x, runs great. Plays RDR2 phenomenally and can play any modern game well. Too bad itâs mostly been put to use on Minecraft haha

Expectations Met
I ordered this product to run Stable Diffusion and continue the games I enjoy at the same quality as my AMD 6600. So far the 3060 has met my expectations. It was delivered quickly, was a fast swap in with my desktop and has worked without incident since. NVIDIA software runs well and the installation is pretty simple. All in all, a good introductory card for AI art programs while having respectable ability for gaming and graphics. Worth its price point of ~300 with tax and fees.Still, it is always advisable to make sure a card meets the requirements of what you want before you order.

Works great for price.
Itâs pretty good for the price. It works great in most modern games, and gets 100+ fps on high settings in somewhat demanding games. It stays cool in my case, and was very easy to install. The two fans, make it easier to fit in almost all ATX cases. The only caveat being, that for only a few dollars more, you can get the 4060, which is slightly better.

Amazing!!!
The GeForce RTX 3060 is a fantastic choice if you’re looking for strong 1080p and decent 1440p gaming performance without breaking the bank. I can play modern games at high settings with smooth frame rates, and it also handles creative tasks like video editing and 3D rendering quite well. The card runs quietly, and the power efficiency is impressive â I haven’t experienced any overheating issues. While it’s not the top-of-the-line for 4K gaming, it’s a solid mid-range card with great value for gaming and multitasking. Highly recommended!

Great upgrade, even though it is an older card, for a studio setting. Decent gaming.
Great for Photoshop, Lightroom, and photo editing in general. I am a high volume professional portrait photographer and getting Adobe programs to run efficiently is crucial to my workflow. The new, 2024, version of Photoshop and Lightroom would run poorly on my 8 year old graphics card with 4gb of ram. This card, with 12gb of ram, fixed all my problems and should work great for several years. I chose this model because my applications require more ram instead of more processing speed like in gaming, so the newer, more expensive models like the 4000 series, or the more expensive 3060ti with 8gb would not have lasted as long for me, would not have given me the benefits that this card offers, or would simply would not offer enough improvement to justify the price.This card really falls in the sweet spot right now, April 2024, for performance for the money.I can play pretty much every game on this card, but I use reduced graphics settings for games under 2 years old. I don’t care about super high frame rates and ultra high detail, so it is perfect for me.

We purchased a few of those for our lab to be used as GPGPU (mainly for deep learning). We installed them in out HP Z4 workstations and they all work as advertised. I am unable to assess how they perform for gaming or other graphical applications except to say that between computations they also drive our 2K monitors just fine.Just the above makes us satisfied customers, but to our pleasant surprise the card also accommodates our unusual power supplies. About every PSU manufacturer and their mothers provide additional PCIe power using 8-pin connectors. HP workstations however are different, for their PSUs provide 150+W of power through a 6-pin PCIe connector (which is normally rated at only 75W). The mentioned pleasant surprise is that this GPU happily accepts our 6-pin connectors and still works at full power, as opposed to other GPUs we tried which refuse to power on without an adapter cable.Overall these are great, inexpensive GPGPU devices which we can recommend.
