Nvidia might refresh the RTX 3060 again

If you thought Nvidia had stopped working on new RTX 30 series SKUs, you might be wrong. As per a recent report, the green team is apparently working on a new RTX 3060 SKU equipped with a new GPU and GDDR6X memory.

According to T4C Fantasy (via VideoCardz), Nvidia might soon release an improved version of an RTX 30 series SKU. This SKU is a new RTX 3060, but instead of using a GA106 GPU, it will pack a GA104 GPU, which can also be found on the RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards. Despite the change in the GPU, the CUDA core count should remain at 3,584.

Besides the new GPU, the new SKU would also pack 12GB of GDDR6X memory running at 19Gbps, a considerable upgrade from the GDDR6 memory usually found on the RTX 3060. The memory bus is expected to remain the same (192-bit)

If this report is accurate, this would be the fourth RTX 3060 SKU (original, LHR variant, 8GB model and GDDR6X version).

KitGuru says: The RTX 3060 may be sticking around for a bit longer. Are any of you still considering an RTX 30 series card or are you looking to jump to a newer generation GPU at this point?
