The RTX 3060 has become one of NVIDIA's most popular graphics cards , given that it allows the use of Ray Tracing in games and software, and is an accessible range for gamers who want to upgrade their graphics card after a generation of consoles and will remain cutting-edge for several years, and allows higher resolutions.
How not to love her? Well, NVIDIA has seen that this model still has a lot of commercial pull, and it is seen that they are going to release a new RTX 3060 commercial model for this 2023. We know that NVIDIA is going to maintain its plans to keep two generations of GPu for sale on a regular basis. simultaneously, and it will be a very positive movement because the prices and accessibility of the RTX 4000 are not playing in their favor.
NVIDIA isn't going to let the RTX 3060 die anytime soon
According to T4C Fantasy, Nvidia may soon release an upgraded version of an RTX 3000 series SKU. This would be a new RTX 3060 for 2023 , but instead of using a GA106 GPU, it will include a GA104 GPU, which is also found in the RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards. Despite the GPU change, the number of CUDA cores will remain at 3.584.
In addition to the new GPU, the new SKU would also include 12GB of 6Gbps GDDR19X memory, which would be a significant improvement over the GDDR6 memory typically found in the RTX 3060 in its base models. The memory bus is expected to remain the same, a 192-bit one.
If this report is accurate, this would be the fourth version of the RTX 3060, since the original is already on the market, the LHR variant to try to make a graph that cryptocurrency miners do not want, an 8 GB model cheaper than in the end it has not had good sales, and this GDDR6X version would still have to be confirmed for 2023. It would be a good move by NVIDIA, in a way that it would give users a reference model of one of their most popular graphics cards to whom they have still made the jump to a model with RTX, but does not want or can opt for reasons of price or availability to an RTX 4000.
