Product description
The TUF GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 Ti has been stripped down and built back up to provide more robust power and cooling. An all-metal shroud houses three powerful axial-tech fans that utilize durable dual-ball fan bearings. Fan rotation has been optimized for reduced turbulence, and a stop mode brings all three fans to a halt at low temps. Beneath, a thick heatsink keeps thermals under tight control. Additional features, including TUF components, Auto-Extreme technology, and a backplate vent make the TUF a proper powerhouse.
Product features
- Premium components
Components are selected for TUF Gaming graphics cards based on their durability and performance. The components are soldered to the PCB using advanced Auto-Extreme automated manufacturing process. Smooth joints on the rear of the PCB and the elimination of human errors ensure each graphics card meets rigorous specifications. - Fresh design
An all-aluminum shroud adds robust protection to TUF Gaming graphics cards and a no-nonsense industrial design and elegant colorway fit into any build with ease. - Cooler GPU
The underside of the card reveals a host of improvements. Most of the rear is swathed in a protective metal backplate that prominently features a wide vent. The vent allows hot air to escape towards chassis exhaust fans instead of being recycled back into the GPU cooler. Stainless-steel is used for the I/O bracket to protect ports and provide a more secure mount. - 2.7-slot design
The heat spreader draws heat up into heatpipes that carry it through a fin stack that fills most of the card's large, 2.7-slot footprint. - MaxContact technology
To get heat up off the die and into the heatsink array, MaxContact has been engaged to polish the surface of the heat spreader and improve smoothness at the microscopic level. The extra flatness allows for better contact with the die for enhanced thermal transfer. - Powerful fans
The two-side fans spin counterclockwise to reduce turbulence. And to eliminate unnecessary noise, a stop mode halts all fans when the GPU temp falls below 50° and power consumption is low. - Axial-tech fan design
TUF Gaming cards leverage tried-and-true axial-tech fan design, with three fans working in tandem to satisfy the thermal demands of high-octane design. The fans rely on dual-ball fan bearings to ensure consistent performance and increased longevity compared to sleeve bearings and other bearing types.
