PNY Releases GeForce RTX 3060 12GB For Mini-ITX Form Factor

And it’s probably got one of the longest names ever for a product lol! Wait for it … it’s called the ‘PNY GeForce RTX 3060 12GB XLR8 Gaming REVEL EPIC-X RGB Single Fan Edition’! 😀

Taken from Videocardz … Meet “PNY GeForce RTX 3060 12GB XLR8 Gaming REVEL EPIC-X RGB Single Fan Edition”. This product name itself would probably deserve a separate article, because it is simply ridiculous, however, let’s focus on the graphics card.

This PNY model is actually the third RTX 3060 listed by the company. It is also the first in Mini-ITX form factor. The card measures 17 x 12.5 x 4 cm (6.69″ x 4.92″ x 1.57″) and it is kept in a dual-slot design. It would appear that the card is semi-custom, which means full custom cooler design but reference PCB, however, no pictures of the PCB have been shared by the company. We do learn from the specs that this model will require a single 8-pin power connector though.

Officially RTX 3060 has a base clock of 1320 MHz and a boost clock of 1777 MHz. PNY’s XLR8 RTX 3060 model has a base clock of 1627 MHz and a boost clock of 1852 MHz. Interestingly it would also have a memory clock of 14 Gbps, which is slower than NVIDIA’s. We have heard that the specs listed by PNY were actually the original specs for RTX 3060, but they were changed by NVIDIA shortly before launch. It is possible that the company has simply not updated the specs, which is simply hilarious.

Apart from the confusing frequencies, we have the GA106 GPU with 3584 CUDA cores and 12GB GDDR6 memory across a 192-bit memory bus. The card is designed for 170W TDP.
