...If you can find one in stock at close to the mooted £429 price point, it's worth a shout.
We wrap up the review roster for 2020 with a product emblematic of the times. The GeForce RTX 3060 Ti verges on impossible to find in stock, and if you do, be prepared to pay a handsome premium over recommended pricing.
Such matters are out of EVGA's hands, and it produces a trio of aftermarket boards based on the thoroughly decent GPU. The FTW3 Ultra is the pick of the bunch as it elevates core speeds to run at a real-world 2GHz. Performance is fairly close to last generation's RTX 2080 Ti, which means excellence at QHD and more than passable at UHD. Imbued with raytracing smarts and DLSS technology, EVGA does a solid job in a crowded market.
We'd prefer a second BIOS, it doesn't match the very best in the noise department, and there's little scope for more performance by overclocking because EVGA already runs it fast.
Our advice is simple. If you can find one in stock at close to the mooted £429 price point, it's worth a shout. If not, the EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti FTW3 Ultra isn't as refined as some of the premium competition.
