It is the newer model with the faster GDDR6X memory. Let’s go over all the key details one by one.
- Ampere architecture: The RTX 30-series brings significant performance improvement over the previous generation including better DLSS and ray tracing performance.
- GDDR6X memory: This newer model of the RTX 3060 Ti features GDDR6X memory which is faster than GDDR6 and may translate to a few more FPS in games.
- Solid construction: The Ventus 3X looks and feels premium. It also has a metal backplate on the back with thermal pads installed underneath to cool the VRAMs.
- Cool and silent operation: The uniquely-designed TORX fans push more air into the heatsink. They completely stop spinning when the GPU temperature is low.
- Software control: You get a few MHz more by using the MSI Dragon Center to overclock the GPU. You can also monitor and control other aspects of the graphics card like the RGB.
What we think
Considering that the RTX 4060 Ti offers very little generational improvement, the RTX 3060 Ti at a discounted price sounds more logical. Unless DLSS 3.0 is very improved for you, the RTX 3060 Ti can handle any modern game at 1440p with ease. The Ventus 3X is also one of the best-looking designs out there.
