There is one more good news, DRAM prices are to be expected cut short by 10%. Paul's hardware new video, whether the price will be adjusted is yet to be seen. Thank God this Crypto-rush is over, its silimar to what happened in Alaska, about the gold rush.

I know this but can't compare TUF OC with this one.Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Twin Edge 8GB GDDR6
ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Twin EdgeZT-A30610E-10M Get Amplified with the ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX™ 30 Series based on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture. Built with enhanced RT Cores and Tensor Cores, new streaming multiprocessors, and high-speed GDDR6 memory, the ZOTAC GAMING GeForc
Why ? This has 5 years waranty.
Performance and Thermals are unbeatable for a TUF GPU.
Performance? Both are 3060 TI oveclocked. How much performance one could gain with Tuffness ? I don't think these GPU's ever throttle on sustained loads.
My choice would always be Asus TUF.
This is the power of marketing and brand recall
. Asus products do have a premium in quality and price. However, I highly doubt the performance in the real world would be able to outweigh the 24 whole months of additional warranty. But hey, we all have our brand preferences and affinities, so do what makes you happy 
Not marketing but it's from the reviews that I have seen with Gamer Nexus. Zotac, I have heard does not allows the transfer of warranty especially the extra 2 years.This is the power of marketing and brand recall
Just keen to know, is there a personal preference you have for Zotac. Because from the moment I have posted, you seem to advocate Zotac (which is not my personal preference). Have been using Asus products since the time I have been building PC and not even a Single issue with them or with the RMA,
I just told you that the warranty is transferable. I didn't ask you to change your preference or claimed that Tuff is inferior to Zotac. My first pc build also had a ASUS board because that was the only one available at that time in the shop. I never had any RMA issue with any brand except once but that is because there were two distinct issues on the board and the service center resolved only one. Got a replacement next time from ASUS. I won't call it a negative experience though. I have replaced a used Zotac card in 4th year of warranty for coil noise and they never asked for any extended warranty proof. I guess they must have verified it on their end.

PrimeABGB is selling the Asus TUF for 46100 and if you use UPI payment, then the price comes down to 45k. Not a bad pricing. It seems they had overstocked Asus GPU and are getting rid of them through this so called Flash sale. SP Road has 3070Ti for 64k and Prime for 63k.FYI/price check- Got a zotac 3060ti for 46k from Nehru Place in last week of June (see builds thread for pic
The cheapest 3060ti 'available' was inno3d 3060ti for 44k.
Not sure if standard price or 'with full build' price.
Hopefully prices have reduced further.
Edit- SMC quoted 40k for 3060 and 51k for 3060ti, didn't ask which model, didn't get a build from there.
not so soon man. not so soon.
