Review: Can play battlefield six on it - Definitely a great card and can play battlefield 6 I bought this card during the pandemic when all the cards were stupid expensive But I definitely feel like I got my money out of it because even now I can still play top tire games like battlefield 6 on ultra with out any issues as long as you have a more than 16gb or ram and a good processor Is it the best card no not by a long shot but it definitely meets my needs to game with
Review: Price point doesnt disappoint - i use 1080p and it doesn't drop below 166 FPS on Minecraft with siddurs high on. kinda insane. to be fair, mine is overclocked slightly. stays super cool and quiet either way. run COD and MW2 easily. the 12GB or GDDR6 Vram is the main reason i got this card and it doesnt disappoint. i played minecraft, roblox, and used adobe photoshop at the same time with 0 lag, while yes, usually just ram but for all the heavy stuff on the gpu it handles it with ease. highly recommend for 1080p/1440p gamers. used in 4k once. handles nicely but did stutter on minecraft (raytraced) occasionally.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keep an eye on pricing
*by K***I on August 31, 2022*

Nothing but good things to say about this GPU, especially coming from a 1660. So far zero issues installing and no hiccups during gameplay. Specs: Ryzen 7 3800x Msi RTX 3060 (This product) Corsair Vengeance PRO16x2 GB DDR4 Corsiar RM850x 850w PSU For reference, I'd avg about 110FPS on Rainbow 6 Siege with mid to low settings on the 1660, while now averaging about 200-230FPS on ultra settings. Haven't really had a chance to try out other games just yet, but I'm expecting wild performance improvements as well (plus ray tracing ability) Big tip is to watch pricing as I got it when it was it's lowest price. Definitely one of the most bang for you buck GPUs at the lowest price it was at. If you're contemplating on getting this GPU and can wait till the pricing gets better, it is 100% a no brainer purchase. At it's current price I'd wait or potentially look at other brands.
