Product overview
Released on February 25, 2021, EVGA’s GeForce RTX 3060 XC Gaming is an Ampere-based RTX 30‑series AIB with 12GB of GDDR6. EVGA announced its XC/XC Black models on January 12, 2021, and later exited the GPU market in September 2022, so this card is discontinued.
Positioned in the budget tier, it exists to bring RTX features and ample VRAM to mainstream 1080p rigs while stretching into 1440p. It’s well‑suited to 1080p and entry‑level 1440p gaming, esports/high‑fps play, and enabling ray tracing with DLSS. Typical board power is about 170 W with a single 8‑pin PCIe plug and a 550 W PSU recommendation; outputs include HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a. Notable: a short 201.8 mm dual‑slot design that fits compact cases.
