Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti is reportedly already on sale – just not to you

Image Description

Nvidia’s RTX 3060 Ti is purportedly already on sale, at least in Saudi Arabia where one retailer has apparently jumped the gun and ignored the official release schedule for the graphics card.

Of course, we must remember that the RTX 3060 Ti is still at this point only a rumored card – although convincing images have just been leaked – but still, we obviously have to take this particular story with a hefty helping of salt.

Videocardz believes a new image shared by the Saudi Arabian retailer – known as ‘Silicon Valley’ – to be genuine, even if the pic provided with the product listing on the site is a fake (rather oddly). 

And indeed the retailer also shared a video clip of the packaging of the Gigabyte 3060 Ti Eagle graphics card, which would be difficult to fake of course – check it out below (Twitter leaker harukaze5719 was the first to surface this story).

The boxed Gigabyte 3060 Ti graphics cards certainly look real enough in that video, although the manner in which it’s shot doesn’t exactly help…

Not long to wait

You can make up your own mind regarding the legitimacy of all this, naturally, but it would appear to reinforce the rumor that the RTX 3060 Ti is indeed imminent, considering it comes on top of further leaked images we saw yesterday.

Originally this purported Ampere graphics card was expected to arrive at some point in November, but the latest speculation now points to a slight delay and early December release.

The theory is that the RTX 3060 Ti will have 4,864 CUDA cores, along with 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM, and a price point of around $400 (about £300, AU$560). The price quoted by the Saudi Arabian retailer is 3,699 Saudi Riyal which translates to around $990 (or about £760, AU$1,370), but that obviously won’t be anything like representative of Nvidia’s final price tag for the GPU in other regions.

Meanwhile, the GPU grapevine is also full of chatter regarding a potential vanilla RTX 3060 and most interestingly an RTX 3050 Ti which could both be out in January 2021.

  • You’ll want to install this Windows 11 update to speed up your PC

    If your Windows 11 PC is feeling slow, then you may want to make sure you download Microsoft’s latest update, known as Windows 11 KB5010386.

    This patch was released as part of Microsoft’s big ‘Patch Tuesday’, a monthly event where the company releases a series of important updates for its software.

    Included in the patches is KB5010386, which addresses a serious flaw in Windows 11 that caused the speeds of SSDs to drop – which in turn made affected PCs run slowly. While Microsoft has previously addressed this issue with the January 2022 cumulative update, as Windows Latest reports, some people have continued to suffer from this problem.

    This new update aims to fix this issue once and for all, so it’s well worth downloading if your PC isn’t performing as fast as it should. The update is currently rolling out to Windows Insiders, who have signed up to test out early builds of Windows 11, but it’s also available to download directly as well.

    Other patches

    February’s Patch Tuesday also brought a cumulative update with security patches for 48 vulnerabilities. Again, this means making sure your version of Windows 10 or Windows 11 is updated to the very latest release.

    There have been some more fixes to various errors in Windows 11 as well, to make it run more smoothly, including a fix for an error that prevented the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Modify operation from working correctly, as Windows Central points out.

    This may be a bit of a niche issue, but as it comes with the security patches, it’s well worth installing anyway.

    To make sure your PC is up to date, open the Start menu, type in ‘Update’ and click ‘Check for updates’. If any are found, click them to download and install.

  • AT&T has sold its online advertising platform to Microsoft

    Microsoft has announced that it has entered a definitive agreement to acquire the online advertising and analytics firm Xandr from AT&T.

    The agreement builds on a decade-long relationship between Xandr, its predecessor companies and the software giant for delivering digital media solutions for advertisers on a global scale. Through its data-enabled technology platform, Xandr provides tools which power a diverse ecosystem that connects marketers and media owners through first-party, data-led advertising solutions across its network.

    President of web experiences at Microsoft, Mikhail Parakhin explained in a press release how its acquisition of Xandr will help shape the digital ad marketplace of the future, saying:

    “With Xandr’s talent and technology, Microsoft can accelerate the delivery of its digital advertising and retail media solutions, shaping tomorrow’s digital ad marketplace into one that respects consumer privacy preferences, understands publishers’ relationships with consumers and helps advertisers meet their goals.”

    Shaping the future of digital advertising

    Microsoft and Xandr have a shared vision for the digital ad marketplace of the future as well as complementary strengths to empower the open web so that everyone can thrive and do so in a way that is consistent with the software giant's commitment to strong data governance and consumer privacy practices.

    Through the acquisition, Microsoft will be able to accelerate the delivery of digital advertising solutions for the open web by combining its audience understanding, technology and global advertising customer base with Xandr's large-scale, data-driven platforms for advertising.

    The company brings a number of advertising platforms to the table including its cross-screen, first-party data-centered buying platform Xandr Invest as well as its full funnel marketing offering Xandr Monetize.

    By acquiring Xandr, Microsoft aims to become organizations' media partner of choice for the open web and we'll likely hear more on its plans for the digital ad marketplace of the future once the transaction officially closes following regulatory review.
