12GB GDDR6 192-bit graphics card
The ZOTAC GeForce RTX 3060 Twin Edge delivers 12GB of GDDR6 memory across a 192-bit interface running at 15 Gbps. It connects via PCI Express 4.0 and draws up to 170W through a single 8-pin connector. The boost clock reaches 1777 MHz on 3584 CUDA cores.
1080p and 1440p gaming with ray tracing
This card suits players targeting high refresh rates at 1080p or solid 1440p performance with ray tracing enabled via 2nd Gen RT cores and 3rd Gen Tensor cores. It supports four simultaneous displays through HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a outputs. Builders needing higher 4K frame rates or multi-GPU scaling should look elsewhere.
12GB frame buffer for modern textures
The 12GB buffer handles current 1440p titles and 8K media playback at 7680 x 4320 resolution with HDCP 2.3. The 192-bit bus and 15 Gbps memory speed provide adequate bandwidth for most scenarios, though memory-intensive 4K workloads with maximum texture settings may saturate the interface. A 600W power supply is recommended.

Questions about this item
My power supply only has a single 8-pin PCIe connector — is that enough for this card?
Yes. The card draws up to 170 W and needs one 8-pin connector; a 600 W PSU is recommended.
Will the PCI Express 4.0 interface run at full speed on my older PCIe 3.0 motherboard?
The card is backward compatible and will operate at PCIe 3.0 speeds on a 3.0 slot with no extra setup.
After installing the drivers, how can I confirm the 1777 MHz boost clock is actually being reached?
Open the FireStorm utility or GPU-Z while running a 3D load; the sensor read-out will show the real-time clock hitting 1777 MHz.
