NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti are not produced for manufacturing costs

Graphics assemblers do not make the RTX 3060 Ti due to their high production costs and prefer to make the RTX 3070 that leave more margin

The controversy over graphics cards seems to be far from over. The launch of the NVIDIA RTX 3060 has also been a huge disaster, with high prices and no stock. Well, a rumor now indicates that assemblers would not be producing the RTX 3060 Ti due to high manufacturing costs.

Limited production of NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards due to manufacturing costs

We currently see an extremely difficult situation in the graphics card market. GPU production would be too low to meet the huge demand. It would all be due to serious component supply issues and cryptocurrency mining. Two major problems have come together that affect the video game market.

It is pointed out that assemblers do not assemble and distribute RTX 3060 Ti because it offers a low profit margin. It seems that the problem of these graphs would be in the PCB for the Ampere silicon. This PCB would be much more expensive and complex to manufacture than initially anticipated. Due to this the assemblers would be preferring to manufacture the RTX 3070, which leave more profit margin.

Not only that, the MSRP stated by NVIDIA for the RTX 3060 Ti would be a problem for assemblers. It appears that NVIDIA has set very tight prices that barely leave any margins for assemblers. And in particular that of the RTX 3060 Ti would be strangling the assemblers.

Assemblers working with NVIDIA say the company's $250-$300 price tag is unviable. In fact, they say they "would go bankrupt if they sold at those prices." The RTX 3070 doesn't have this problem, as it gives NVIDIA's partners higher margins.

GamerNexus points out that putting the prices set by NVIDIA would mean a big cut in quality. Cooling should be worsened, VRM quality sacrificed, and other PCB component costs reduced. This could pose a great risk, as it will affect the durability of the graphics.

We should note that the NVIDIA RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti have very similar PCBs and are based on the GA104 GPU. The difference between the two graphics models is around $ 100, but the performance is similar. As the RTX 3070 gives more margin, we bet on assembling this graph.

It is very understandable that manufacturers sell the most profitable model and avoid losing. Nobody would sell a product at a loss, unless you dedicate yourself to selling consoles and earn the money on the other hand.
