Asus Dual GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Mini OC V2, 8GB

Even though this is now "old tech" in June 2023 (given the recent 4000-series releases), this card is still the sweet spot for games and other video applications (eg video editing, and rendering).It's great for 1080p and 1440p gaming and gives a pretty good result even at 4K although the detail has to be dialled down a bit, not unexpectedly.The price/performance is excellent, this was just £300 at eBuyer, and when compared to the recent 4000-series appears to be excellent =value.Instructions included with the card were absolute rubbish, particularly for the inexperienced (we're not all systems builders). The GPU slot in my PC has a flip down cover that has to be moved first, and then it all just slides and clicks in, although you should not fully tighten the ... MoreEven though this is now "old tech" in June 2023 (given the recent 4000-series releases), this card is still the sweet spot for games and other video applications (eg video editing, and rendering).It's great for 1080p and 1440p gaming and gives a pretty good result even at 4K although the detail has to be dialled down a bit, not unexpectedly.The price/performance is excellent, this was just £300 at eBuyer, and when compared to the recent 4000-series appears to be excellent =value.Instructions included with the card were absolute rubbish, particularly for the inexperienced (we're not all systems builders). The GPU slot in my PC has a flip down cover that has to be moved first, and then it all just slides and clicks in, although you should not fully tighten the screws on the back panel until you know that the DP plugs fit properly without fouling against the case. Guess how I found that out? 🤷Anyway, benchmarks indicate my PC is now "outstanding" so I'll take that with a pinch of salt and accept it's up to scratch for editing & producing YouTube videos, as well as the occasional bit of gaming.

Decent card. Bought to replace a Vega 56. Allows me to run most modern Triple-A titles at max/ultra settings without issue.Frames for more demanding modern titles such as Halo Infinite can hit a steady 124fps capped or can reach up to 144+ with some fluctuation.Should be possible to extract more performance by upgrading my old Ryzen 1600 CPU which is an obvious bottleneck.The card is not overly noisy but can get a little hot under load.If you have a full-size case the bigger variants may be a better option.Titles such as Cyberpunk 2077, Far Cry 6, AC Valhalla run well above 60fps on high/ultra without any problems.The only title that hitches is Hogwarts Legacy but that seems to be an issue with the title not the card.If you need a solid 1080p card that ... MoreDecent card.

Raytracing is possible but not without some sacrifices.Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would recommend this to others.

Brilliant little card

I had to buy a 2 fan card because I don't have room for the longer 3-fan-type cards in my system. With previous small graphics cards, I've had various overheat and fan loudness issues ... not so with this one.The 2 fans are incredibly quiet, and are only really noticeable once they go above 90% of maximum speed, which rarely happens and I have quite a harsh fan curve setup.Temperatures are also great, even in my midi case with limited cooling (an old case, no front intake fans, 1 rear exhaust fan and a small grill on the side panel); under normal gaming loads (so up to 60% gpu useage) @ 1920x1080 I've yet to see the card exceed 65C, and even at 100% useage I've yet to see the card go over 80C. Average gaming loads - around 30-60% useage - see average temps of ... MoreI had to buy a 2 fan card because I don't have room for the longer 3-fan-type cards in my system.

Average gaming loads - around 30-60% useage - see average temps of around 45-55C max.Overall I was very surprised by how well the card handles heavy GPU loads, even in a less than optimal case.Highly recommended card, even more so if you can get it for around the £400 mark!

Fantastic little card

I used this card in a Velka 7 SFF build and it runs perfectly. Very capable and remarkably quiet given thermal constraints in a case. Also features silent mode which is appreciated, particularly in a small form factor case. Most importantly, was able to play Half Life: Alyx at high settings on a computer not much bigger than two stacked cans of coke.

Games look awesome on this.

Have a Ryzen 5 5600, 32 GB Ram in an ITX factor case.It does get a but warm only because i feel comfortable pushing the card and that it is extremely warm these days.But I can run games with FPS and high Quality such Destiny and Forza 4 and it's just awesome.Also got it at 999 that was what I am also really happy about.Hopefully it gets cheaper again eventually but with the chipsrt climate as it is I was really happy to pay this and get an upgrade.

Great Performer Mid Class GPU

It's a great performer mid class GPU. I don't have 4K monitor so I'm not sure how it do there. But it perform no less than 60p on Elden Ring MAX on my 1080p ASUS VA365 gaming monitor. Temperature stay well within 60 degree on ambiance temperature of 20-25 degree Celcius, so it's been really good in my small NR200 case. The fan aren't noisy at all even on gaming session. Recommended.

Great card for 1080p gaming.

It's a great card for 1080p gaming (I only have a 1080 monitor) on the highest settings. Great value if you can get it near MSRP (369). Combined with a 12600k, it runs Assassin's Creed Odyssey on highest settings at 90-100fps in most places. Marvel's Spider-Man flawlessly, barely hitting 65 degrees. Elden Ring same.

Really good, just not the quietest

I've been really pleased with this card, it has a lot of headroom and I've been able to do some mild overclocks to elicit even more performance. Thermally it manages itself really well assuming you have good airflow, however, because it has two small fans it is a bit louder than larger 3 fan cards, it's not a deal breaker just something to be aware of. But if space is at a premium then you won't be dissappointed with this card.

Solid little card

The GPU has performed really well and was a considerate upgrade from my 1070. Running games at 4k has been surprisingly successful with one or two perhaps needing DLSS. It also runs about 60c under load and fans staying silent until needed. Temps have been good considering its only a dual fan. Also a lot of the games i have played since owning defaulted to max settings even at 4k
