Product overview

Released on February 25, 2021 as part of NVIDIA’s Ampere GeForce RTX 30 series, GIGABYTE’s GeForce RTX 3060 Eagle OC 12G (Rev. 2.0) is a factory‑overclocked 12GB GDDR6 take on the RTX 3060. It keeps the 192‑bit bus and 1807 MHz boost clock in a compact dual‑fan design. In the budget tier, it exists to deliver RTX features and plenty of VRAM for smooth 1080p and entry‑level 1440p gaming. Practical touches include a 242 mm dual‑slot cooler, single 8‑pin power (170 W TDP) with a 550 W PSU recommendation, and 4 outputs (2x HDMI 2.1, 2x DP 1.4a). DLSS upscaling and 2nd‑gen RT cores make moderate ray tracing feasible. Unique note: Rev. 2.0 is an LHR (Limited Hash Rate) model.
