Note that overclocking the RAM on 30 series doesn't always mean higher performance. It actually is ECC on the 30 series so at some point when it becomes really broken you start losing performance. You have to actively monitor if your scores go up or down when bringing the speed up.

[@arian4562]

what values do you use?

[@Skylancer727]

@@arian4562 you kinda just have to keep checking the scores. Because it's ECC errors won't cause the GPU to crash, but as they become more common your overall score or average frame rate will drop. This is because ECC is mainly ment to stop crashing, each error takes time to correct so the more you get the longer the code takes to move on. So there's a sweet spot where your score will keep going up but after that your score will slowly tick back down. So let's say you get a card with a default memory speed of 18000hz. The sweet point may be around 19500-20500hz. Beyond that point your scores and frame rates will slowly get worse as more errors happen.

[@justsomeperson5110]

I mean the good thing about the plain Jane 3060 is that with such a low power draw, ramping up the fans isn't risking destabilizing the card by fighting over available power. And the last-gen GDDR isn't going to hide failures with error correcting like cutting-edge cards will. So it should make for a much more straight forward process of overclocking. The bad thing about the plain Jane 3060 overclock is that it still doesn't even touch 3060 TI performance when OCed. LOL

[@fastgecko5799]

Idk if it's the same with these new GPUs but my GTX 1070 actually performs better than stock/overclocked with an aggressive undervolt, a mild core overclock, and a fairly aggressive memory overclock. It was a bit tricky to get it stable but because it runs so much cooler it actually maintains a higher clock with the undervolt than it would with the overclock. I know this video's really old at this point but you should do some undervolting stuff. It's honestly an absolutely amazing thing that no tech KZbinrs ever mention.

OC results is what I would expect from overclocking an GPU. Though, these days electronics are already pushed to the max for best performance. So, I guess this is an impressive result, especially on an economy class layout like this one.

I think it would be useful to include benchmarks that showcase the blender performance of the 3060. After all, that 12gb of Vram is speculated to be for content creation and I can't find benchmarks anywhere that show the blender performance or any rendering performance for that matter. While most people can't get these cards, I think it would show whether or not this card has any potential value over the 3060ti at all.
