What Graphics Card will I receive if I purchase a 3060 Ti?

[puretrigger]

When you purchase a 3000 series GPU, it’s listed as “not founders edition,” and that’s all the information I get. Is there a way to find out what I’m getting in my PC or is it just luck of the draw?

PCS generally use Palit or Zotac cards but with the GPU shortage we've seen some Gigabyte and Gainward cards as PCS try to get their hands on whatever they can. The only way to guarantee a card would be to buy one of the ASUS cards, although they're more expensive and come with a longer wait for no performance gain.

Also if you haven't already, I'd recommend having your spec checked by the forum to make sure you're getting the best build for your money. We'll need the full build (how to post can be found here) , your budget, monitor info (make and model or resolution and refresh rate) and what you'll be doing with the PC

Do note that the wait for the 3060Ti's is currently unknown I believe, so you may be waiting a long long time - not sure if you can even order it at the mo

Which ever one is available mate, they get them from multiple different suppliers. I got a PNY 3060 Ti

I actually amended my order from a 3060 to a 3060 ti and it went from pre-production to awaiting dispatch in the space of a day. My builds arriving on Monday haha

Im sure it’s too late now as my build’s arriving on Monday. I’ve gone for a 3600X paired with a 3060Ti. Going to be playing 240fps on some games competitively and I’d have preferred to have upgraded to a 5600X but I had to spend the extra money on some beautiful RGB which will of course increase my frames much more than a CPU upgrade ever could.

Actually you just wanted to look at something nice whilst waiting for the rest of the group to complete the game because you lost early on

Sounds like a fairly good pairing to me. Enjoy the system and it'd be great to see it in "Show off your new computer" when it arrives!

thought I’d mention that a delivery was attempted today (2 days early??) but at 7:30 AM on a weekend. why??? I think PCSpecialist are lying to me just so I’m disappointed like I was when I opened my
e-mails to see that delivery was attempted and I MISSED IT

PCS don't deliver anything, it would be DPD or Palletways if it's a big order, but it will all be in the tracking, you should have received a notification yesterday warning you about delivery.

yeah it was DPD. funny thing though the warning email came through at 6:49 and the attempted delivery notification was sent exactly one hour later. Poor notice unfortunately

worthwhile getting the DPD app
