The Ampere series will replace the Turing lineup, which will fade out of the market as these cards sit right on top of their prices yet are much faster. 

  • The reference 3060 cards have a peak boost clock up-to 1.78 GHz, with the base clock hovering in the 1.32 GHz domain.
  • The reference 3060 Ti cards have a peak boost clock up-to 1.66 GHz, with the base clock hovering in the 1.41 GHz domain.
  • The reference 3070 cards have a peak boost clock up-to 1.73 GHz, with the base clock hovering in the 1.50 GHz domain.
  • The reference 3080 cards have a peak boost clock up-to 1.71 GHz, with the base clock hovering in the 1.44 GHz domain.
  • The reference 3090 cards have a peak boost clock up-to 1.70 GHz, with the base clock hovering in the 1.40 GHz domain. 

The card clocks in at a boost frequency of 1852 MHz. These are out-of-the-box configured clock frequencies. As mentioned, it weighs just over one and a half kg and is 2.7 slots wide, and its length is almost 32cm. As such MSI included a metal bracket should you need a bit more support. Other than that, it's the TRIO X look and feels that has built a reputation over the years. the backplate is graphene-based which reinforces the card further and also helping with cooling.

For those wondering, the graphics card sits higher (extended) due to a riser on the PCIe slot. We applied a new methodology to measure power consumption. That does, however, require some juggling acts with the cards.
