![]() The full chip has 30 SMs while the 3060 disables two and ends up with 28 SMs, but everything else is left alone. At a high level, there are three GPCs (Graphics Processing Clusters), each with up to 10 SMs and 16 ROPs (the two blocks of eight blue rectangles each at the bottom of the GPC). This is the first desktop card to use Nvidia's GA106 processor. Power use remains similar, with a 170W TGP (Total Graphics Power), a decent step down from the RTX 3060 Ti's 220W TGP. ![]() It also doubles VRAM capacity (at least until the anticipated RTX 3060 6GB shows up, though perhaps maybe Nvidia will just leave that for the RTX 3050 line) and boasts improvements in the RT and Tensor cores, as well as the memory subsystem, all leading to better performance. Ampere gives you a lot more shader cores, which means potentially much higher computational performance, and a minor improvement in memory bandwidth for the 12GB card. The RTX 20 Super show how much things have changed for the -60 suffix cards between Turing and Ampere. Here's how things break down, comparing the RTX 3060 with its closest Ampere sibling and Turing predecessors. ![]()
