BANK15 gets you £49 off this Gigabyte RTX 3060 Eagle from Ebuyer.
Earlier today we looked at a deal on AMD’s top graphics card, the RX 6950 XT, and now it’s time to look at the opposite end of the market: one of Nvidia’s cheapest RTX graphics cards. Ebay is running a promotion today that knocks 15% off the price of brand-new items when you use the codeBANK15at the checkout, and you can use this to pick an RTX 3060 12GB for just £279.
This is a great price for this mid-range GPU, and it’s especially rare to see features like hardware-accelerated ray tracing and DLSS image reconstruction at this price point.
TheRTX 3060 got a fairly positive reviewfrom erstwhile hardware editor Katharine, who rated it highly as a drop-in replacement for folks with GTX 1060 and RX 580 graphics cards. Here she is:
What do you think - does this price drop make the 3060 more tempting, are you going to wait for this GPU to become ever-cheaper, or are you just going to jump on a next-gen GPU once they become available? We may not see lower-end next-gen cards for quite some time - potentially this time next year, even! - but I can understand the wait-and-see approach. There’s always something new on the horizon, right?
