The time to spend like crazy is approaching, always to the best of our ability, and NVIDIA has decided to attack the distance between graphics cards with the RTX 3060 Ti, delayed for a few weeks, setting its launch date on i the month of December.
The reason? Respond to the launch of the RX 6000 and be able to get enough stock of drawing cards you can put in stores and face the next Christmas season with guarantees.
Details of NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti and positioning
The NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti graphics card based on your file for chip GA104Therefore, it is the same as that of the RTX 3070, but there are more technical details, because instead of having 48 active SM full chip used in the RTX 3070, this time we get the suspension of 38 SM
Keep in mind that not all chips from wafers meet full specifications and become RTX 3070, some of which will be stored as RTX 3060 Ti, some RTX 3060 and there will be a portion of them ending in laptops.
Since NVIDIA sold the RTX 3070 for about $ 500, so this RTX 3060 Ti will cost under $ 500 and I will be in middle distance From the market.
It is a response to the launch of the RX 6000
AMD unveils three top new graphics cards next December: RX 6800, RX 6800 XT Y RX 6900 XT. For all of them, the most modest model is the RX 6800 which will be presented to AMD for $ 579, just above the RTX 3070 in price.
When we consider the price, it is clear to us that the RTX 3060 Ti is not the answer to the RX 6800 from you to you with great power, but that NVIDIA’s goal is to attract mid-market attention with a next-gen card of less than $ 500, so The RTX 3060 Ti is not a direct response to the high-end RX 6000 that will be released in December as well.
If the rumors are correct, then AMD’s average distance will reach Q1 2021, in the form of RX 6700 and RX 6600, and we will not forget that the range RTX 3000 was introduced about three months earlier AMD and NVIDIA times are different. . The norm is to introduce a range every quarter, so now it will be a mid-range RTX 3000 turnover while AMD will do with a high end of RX 6000.
RTX 3060 Ti vs RX 6800
The fact is that, in terms of price, the NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti will have a price advantage over the AMD’s RX 6800.
The key will be the availability of the NVIDIA RTX 3070 in the market and what users want, because, for many, the RTX 3060 Ti may not be enough and they end up buying the RX 6800 due to stock shortages RTX 3070. While for others the RTX 3060 Ti will fit that they need you.
There is no denying that $ 500 is a barrier to prices for most people, as part of the community does not want to spend more than that on a dedicated photo card. If NVIDIA is able to fully stock the RTX 3060 Ti then they will have a winning product for the holiday season, where the middle and lower grades have the highest sales value for the year.
