    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST The Great RTX 3060ti Wait and Delivery Thread

    Judging by the 3070 and 3080 threads there seem to have been quite a few deliveries in the last week or so. Still no news on the 3060ti?

    "Part of the reason why I went for a ROG STRIX X570 was to get a front USB-C. It's sort of ridiculous but I had to be certain since otherwise the front port on my Corsair case would have been useless. Even the TUF X570 GAMING Plus doesn't seem to have a front USB-C...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST The Great RTX 3060ti Wait and Delivery Thread

    I'm on day 20 and called yesterday. Got this response:- "I cant advise on the exact queue position, but I would advise on around another 1-1.5 months waiting time depending on the deliveries of the card, its due to the global constraint from Nvidia"

    Many thanks everyone for all the helpful advice. I will get get rid of the extra fan for now. Quick question - even though the 4000D and 3060Ti aren't in stock at the moment and I'm prepared to wait, the site would not let me through to the order page. Do you have to do what I've done above and...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST New Laptop Guidance

    Thanks for the replies guys. Sorry I wasn't more specific. Dare I say the cost side isn't an issue. My wife mainly uses it for web browsing, emails, photos, online work training and being able to work from home. I know you'll say the above spec is overkill but I want one that will still be...
