The RTX 3060 GAMING X comes with a factory-overclock of 1837 MHz (+60 MHz). In comparison to GAMING X TRIO, this SKU is slightly slower (-15 MHz) and also offers a different PCB. The TRIO has dual 8-pin power connectors, whereas the dual-fan variant has a 6+8-pin configuration and draws 170W of power even after being overclocked.

NVIDIA will launch the GeForce RTX 3060 on 25th of February. For this launch the Founders Edition cards will not be introduced, thus all reviews will rely on custom designs and many of them will come factory overclocked such as the MSI Gaming X and other top end designs from other brands, that will show small variations between the performance between different models of the RTX 3060 12GB.
