ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 12GB Twin Edge OC | Unboxing

ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 12GB Twin Edge OC | Unboxing | Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 12GB isn’t quite what we were first expecting at this price, but that’s more down to its engorged memory capacity than its GPU specs. That 12GB of GDDR6 memory sticks out like a sore thumb from the crowd of RTX 30-series GPUs before it: The RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti both come with 8GB of the stuff, while the RTX 3080 is fit with 10GB of GDDR6X. The chips denoted with that all-important ’X’ are actually quite a bit faster than the standard GDDR6 silicon, though, so don’t make for direct comparison. The RTX 3090 is the only RTX 30-series card to top the memory capacity of the RTX 3060, with 24GB of GDDR6X. Again, that’s all far quicker in practice. But you can already see why the cheapest Ampere card arriving with the second-highest memory capacity is enough to raise a few eyebrows.
