Pros: Recieved my orders in a resonable amount of time, the RTX 3060 being one of the items I ordered. As you can see in the pictures, there was no noticable damage and the items were packed nicely with protection within the box. It was a straightforward installation, too my old RX580 out and put the new RTX 3060 in. Installed onto an X570 Motherboard with plenty of cooling inside a Corsair 4000D case. So far improvements are extremely obvious, massive gains in graphics and FPS in all aspects. From Ultra quality in GTAV to High FPS and Graphics in Virtual Reality (VRC/NeosVR). The RTX 3060 with its 12gb of onboard memory was what I was after and I was happily able to obtain it at roughly 400-500 USD, anything more would be a waste of a buy as it would be price gouging. otherwise what I obtained it for is perfectly budgeted for a median to High quality gaming rig build.
Cons: Nothing as of yet, Im getting closer to my 1st month of ownership and usage and will make sure to update this after some time has passed and my usage and any heat soak settles in and I can surely rate this card better, but so far so good.
Overall Review: Newegg did me justice, got me my parts quickly, packaging was well protecting my items as there was no damage to the items I ordered, always prompt about updating me if any order/shipping issues arises.

Pros: Its 12Gb its a beast of a card.
Overall Review: I love it. So far Ive editing two videos and the card is amazing when it comes to rendering the footage. Its probably overkill for video editing but I wanted something that can be used for a few years.

Cons: Even though I won on the shuffle it was a decent amount over msrp.
Overall Review: Great performance and looks great!

Pros: -stays cool during high intensive games (the highest I've seen is about 60c but) -compared to my old laptop (1650 mobile and an i5) this runs everything smoothly -Runs VR well -Looks nice with RGB -3x Dp 1x HDMI
Overall Review: If you can get this for a good price I would 100% recommend purchasing I got this for only 596$ Yes I overspent but in our current market you are always going to overspend unless you wanna wait it out or get lucky with drops. I am impatience so I opted for this

Overall Review: I finally got selected for Newegg Shuffle and although I was hoping to get chosen for at least a 3070, I'm very pleased with this card and the way it performs. The card itself looks great, from the sleek looking backplate to the tasteful LED's and the fans are silent, at least from what I can tell. I upgraded from a 1070 mini and definitely noticed a weight difference between the cards however after installing it, it felt secure and I do not think I will need to support it with an extra bracket. My only gripe would be the price but I guess it's worth it for the overall appearance and quality of this card and actually being able to upgrade to a 30 series finally.

Pros: I'm glad that I bought this card, I was sitting on the fence deciding on which card to buy. I don't regret buying this graphics card, it runs great. While it's not the fastest card, it has helped improve Blender's performance over my RTX1060.
Overall Review: Overall, I would recommend this card, it's more expensive than the other similar cards, but I am happy with my purchase.

Pros: Paired this with a 35" 3440x1440 monitor. Been running everything at ultra settings with no issues. Only downside would be price. This cost more than a 3070 MSRP should cost, but that does not exist either. Would still purchase again.
Cons: Unfortunately had to purchase this as a bundle. Have no use for the case / mb combo it was bundled with.
Overall Review: Great card, but only good value at bundle price.
