12GB GeForce RTX 3060 for 1440p gaming

This refurbished GIGABYTE AORUS graphics card uses the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU with 3584 CUDA cores and 12GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit interface. It targets gamers and creators who want high frame rates at 1440p resolution and support for modern APIs. The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system with alternate spinning fans keeps the card stable under load while RGB Fusion 2.0 adds customisable lighting.

Verify PSU and case clearance before ordering

The card requires a 600W system power supply with both a 6-pin and an 8-pin PCIe power connector available. Your motherboard must provide a PCI Express 4.0 slot for full bandwidth. Ensure your chassis can accommodate a 296 mm long, 3-slot thick ATX form factor card measuring 11.65 inches by 4.61 inches, and check that the metal back plate does not interfere with any motherboard components.

Fits a mid-tower build with modern display outputs

Two HDMI 2.1 ports and two DisplayPort 1.4a connectors drive up to four monitors at a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320. The 12GB frame buffer frees system memory for other tasks while the Ampere architecture provides 2nd Generation RT Cores and 3rd Generation Tensor Cores for ray tracing and AI workloads. DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 support ensure compatibility with current and upcoming titles.
