MSI GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING (X) Graphics Card
Product Gallery




Product Overview
MSI GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING is a custom-design 2-fan graphics card based on NVIDIA's RTX 3060. Sharing the similar design with the RTX 3060 Ti model, it is less potent than the 3-fan GAMING TRIO model.
MSI also markets a factory-overclocked version that offers 60MHz increase in boost clock but is otherwise identical, the GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING OC.
Compared to the VENTUS 2X models, the RTX 3060 GAMING adds larger fans, thicker heatsink, and RGB lighting, making it a more interesting option for enthusiasts. The overclocked version is also clocked higher than the factory-overclocked VENTUS cards.
As the least powerful version among RTX 30-series GPUs, the RTX 3060 is more suitable for casual gamers and general users. Nevertheless, NVIDIA has not its stripped features: this entry-level GPU benefits from the rich feature set of the Ampere architecture.
The RTX 3060 GAMING is reinforced with a brushed-aluminum backplate. It uses MSI's Torx Fan 4.0, which sports a unique fan blade design with pairs of blades bound together that further increases air flow. Part of MSI's Twin Frozr 8 cooling system, these fans work in concert with square Core Pipes and a unique heatsink design.
MSI also markets several other RTX 3060 cards in 1-fan, 2-fan, and 3-fan form factors.
