Nvidia has no plans to release GeForce RTX 3060 Founders Edition

According to the source, the GeForce RTX 3060 graphics cards will only be available in variants developed by partners Nvidia. The GPU manufacturer does not plan to release its own version, which, by analogy with other similar models, would be called the GeForce RTX 3060 Founders Edition.

The fact that Nvidia does not plan to release the GeForce RTX 3060 Founders Edition is evidenced by the slides that were used to announce the card. There is no reference design card on them.

Interestingly, the official render posted on Nvidia’s website shows a new cooler design that hasn’t been used in any other Ampere-based graphics card so far. In addition, there is no additional power connector on the render. Considering that the GeForce RTX 3060 consumes 170 W, that is, more than the PCIe slot can provide, we can conclude that the render shows not a reference sample, but only a generalized idea of ​​the card.
