In perf/price for sure. But it's almost always the case with lower tier cards.
It was announced today.
3090
3080
3070
3060Ti
Very confusing.
Holy shit at the benchmarks. About 50% increase over 2060 Super.
So I could get that free upgrade (from the step up program provided by EVGA)?
Bought 2060 Super few weeks ago for 600 dollars CAD (after tax) at BestBuy.
I probably have to pay for the shipping and that's it.

My sentiment exactly. I'm setting my sights on the next holidays when it's in the $400 range.
Confusing, but the 3060ti was an afterthought, it's using a cut-down (likely defective) 104 die, the same as the 3070. Similar to the 3090/3080 situation.
They probably had a bunch of dies that weren't good for the 3070, and already had another die (106) for the 3060.
There were also rumors about an even more cut down 102 die that would make the 3070ti.
400? Doubtful. 2060 Super is still 600 (after tax) at bestbuy.
It's more like a 10-15% difference depending on the resolution, so exactly the same as the 2060S vs 2070S which had the same pricepoints and same performance difference.
I don't get it. What's confusing about it?
"3060 ti is essentialy as fast as a 2080 super"
It also costs about as much as a used 2080 super, so I don't see the point right now

For UK folks, it starts* at £370:
*Hahaha, good luck with that
Depending on territory. A glance at UK Ebay has them recently going for over £500, so a £370 card, were it available, would be appealing

Weird hour for the embargo to lift. Hell, the whole 3060ti announcement is just weird. Leaked for weeks and confirmed by reviewers.
Reading some reviews - this seems like a really good card if you wanna stay 1080p/>60 or use it for 1440p/60 with middle to high settings going forward.
If the custom designs were also available at 400 Euros, I would have been a bit mad about my 3070. But I got it for a great price and am very satisfied so far. Had this been announced from the start though, I might have gone with this one.

the 3060 is a different chip than the 3060 Ti. 3070 Ti should be january-ish
I don't really see what's so confusing about that. Ti versions have been a thing since forever. It's also not the first time a Ti released before the non-Ti version. It's just a name for a product. Could've called it 3070 SE or 3065. Would that make it less confusing? I personally don't think it would.
Should be slightly faster than XSX in raster (depends on the engine being used though), but significantly faster with raytracing enabled.

Pretty damn close to the 3070 in Octane Render from what I'm seeing. Seems like this is your "buy 4 for the price of a 3090 and render in half the time if 8GB is enough for you" card, not the 3070.
Slightly faster in normal rasterization. Much much better in RT and an even bigger bump with DLSS.
3060Ti - $400
3060 12gb - $350
3060 6 gb - $300
I wonder if we'll see stuff similar to the 1660 line, which actually used the previous xx60 price range while the 2060 went higher

I just don't see where the 3070 fits into Nvidia's lineup now. You already have a 8-10% difference between the 360 Ti and 3070...a small OC could close that difference to near negligible levels.
I'm wondering if the 3070 is going to be phased out quicker than expected to make room for a 3070 Super/Ti to take its place.

Could be that the 3060 will have a different chip as 3060ti is a bin from 3070 chip
Why would 3060 get a 12gb version. If anything they'll probably just do a 6gb version and a 4gb 3050
For anyone wanting one for VR might be interested in reading this here first:
leaks show a 12GB variant for whatever reason. Nvidia might have got spooked by AMD or something. and those same leaks shown the 3050 with 6GB
What does longevity have to do with your personal perception of value? If the price performance ratio generation to generation isn't relevant, what exactly is your metric here?
And somehow 2000 series are all still selling for MSRP or higher.
That's always how it was. Well, there weren't any $1200 cards in the past so that's a difference.
Only suckers are buying those, better to wait a few months.
Huh...The 3060TI really does seem like a 'defective binning' 3070 situation, moreso than a new original product - otherwise, it would seem like it would crowd/dilute the product stack, as price/perf ratio is just way better than the 3070.
Granted, every card's gonna sell out right now (which is probably a part of why Nvidia is so keen to release this now - why not sell the defective/lesser binned chips), but I do think there'll be a 3070 super at some point when availability is less of an issue.
Definitely would be a good 1080p upgrade from the 1070 - was considering a 3070, but finding one is pretty much impossible.

That was /s if it wasn't clear.
3060Ti is likely a preemptive launch against 6700XT - Nv knows full well now where it will land going from the results of 6800+.
3070 will be faster and 3060 will be slower so they needed an SKU against 6700XT.
GA106 based 3060 will go against 6700 and they will add 3070Ti and 3080Ti eventually most likely to compete directly with 6800 and 6900XT.
Beats me, but that's what leaks shows. Similar to a 1060 3gb and 6gb. Probably to compete with whatever AMD puts out.
I think that the best GPU for those looking for value is one that performs comfortably above consoles at roughly half of their price. Such a GPU should have a good performance buffer over the consoles to account for more demanding games down the line at a price that leaves a good chunk of money available for building the rest of the system.
