The Nvidia RTX 3060 12GB brings a new level of performance to the mainstream market--sort of. Officially, the RTX 3060 launches today with prices starting at just $329. Realistically? You're as likely to find one at that price as you are to find an RTX 3060 Ti at $399, RTX 3070 at $499, or RTX 3080 at $699 — not entirely impossible, perhaps, but highly unlikely. Nvidia's Ampere architecture now powers many of the best graphics cards , and they're all seeing massive levels of demand from both gamers and cryptocurrency miners . Nvidia has added firmware and driver code to detect Ethereum mining, which should help a bit, but when people are willing to pay extreme scalper pricing on eBay , even for cards like the GTX 1660 Super and RTX 2060, everything in our GPU benchmarks hierarchy is pretty much sold out right now. Nvidia is even working with partners to bring back previous generation Turing and Pascal cards . None of that makes this a bad GPU, … [Read more...] about GeForce RTX 3060 12GB Review: Hope Springs Eternal

In terms of performance, Nvidia’s RTX 3000 series graphics cards have been a rousing success. But in every other way, it’s been a bit of disaster . The confluence of supply limitations, another explosion in crypto mining, and unexpectedly huge demand have made it nearly impossible to buy one of these new graphics cards . I hope the new GeForce RTX 3060 gets into more gamers’ hands, but there’s no guarantee. The good news? If you are able to snag one, you’ll be very pleased by the massive upgrade it will offer to your rig. Design Nvidia isn’t releasing a first-party version of the RTX 3060. That’s a shame. Not only do these “Founders Edition” models set a good standard for pricing, they also are the prettiest graphics card you can buy. With the gorgeous redesign of the 30-series cards, that’s a shame. Unfortunately, the EVGA RTX 3060 XC Black graphics card I received as a review unit isn’t as much of a looker. It’s not ugly, but it lacks a backplate, the shroud is … [Read more...] about EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 XC Black graphics card review: $329 well spent

The first model to get the updated lion badge is the new 308. These are exciting times at Peugeot as the French automaker seems to be one of the global leaders when it comes to electrification. Not only that but the company is preparing a new Le Mans hybrid race car and, meanwhile, it wants to take a slightly higher position on the market.

GMC and Buick have similar conquest incentives. It’s though being a dealership these days what with the coronavirus pandemic taking its toll on new car sales and the competition getting increasingly tougher. Chevrolet is trying to lure you away from rival automakers by offering what is known in the industry as a conquest incentive. Long story short – it’s a discount customers can take advantage of provided they’re coming from a different brand. Cars Direct made the discovery after stumbling upon a bulletin sent to dealers, revealing a $750 discount available with most of Chevy’s products, be them cars, SUVs , or pickups. That might not sound like much, but the good thing is the incentive can be combined with other available discounts. Take for example the 2020 Trax, which was already offered with 0-percent APR for seven years and $2,300 off through the GM Down Payment Assistance. shop now save over $ 3,400 on average off MSRP* on a new Chevrolet Trax … [Read more...] about Chevy Offering Incentive If You’re Coming From A Non-GM Brand

Try and spot the changes, we dare you. Not to be outdone by the refreshed VAG trio (Golf, Octavia, Leon) and the new Renault Megane, Peugeot is about to introduce a mild facelift for its 308 C-segment hatchback. As these “accidentally” leaked official images are showing, there aren’t going to be any drastic styling changes since the designers are only making subtle tweaks. The most significant modifications are noticeable at the front where the grille has a different shape and comes with an updated mesh. The dotted LED daytime running lights have been replaced by a more modern continuous line located in the same position as on the pre-facelift car. Peugeot also revised the bumper by giving it bigger side vents and new fog lights. At the back, it seems only the graphics of the taillights have changed, although the bumper too might have gone through some updates as well but we can’t see all the details at this point because of the poor quality of the images. … [Read more...] about 2018 Peugeot 308 Facelift First Official Images Escape Online
