75 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews
The RTX 3060 Ti from PNY is generally well-received for its solid performance and cooling, with many users noting it runs smoothly and stays cool even under load. Gamers appreciate its ability to handle games like Minecraft at high frame rates, though one user was disappointed with Chrome performance for the price. Some users value its mining capabilities and quiet operation, but complaints about the Limited Hash Rate (LHR) version and shipping delays temper the enthusiasm.
