According to Nvidia's video reveal on YouTube for the RTX 3060, it would have 12 GB of GDDR6 memory that boasts of 10 times more ray-tracing capabilities and performance compared to previous GPUs of the same tier.

The DLSS AI uses neural networks to configure computer settings in a game to render the graphics to lower resolution but still resemble a 4K video output, without burning off one's processor. The AI improves display quality despite being at a lower resolution.

The RTX 3060 GPU's frame rate also surpasses its previous iterations with the RTX 1060 and 2060, that can play "Cyberpunk 2077" (one of the highest frame rate game) at a solid 60 FPS. Nvidia promises a boost on all aspects of the 3060, compared to older GPUs.
