Is the RTX 3060 Ti Still a Good GPU in 2025? Real-World Tests and Final Opinion
In this new episode of Hoy te hablo de, I test the RTX 3060 Ti in the middle of 2025 to see if it still has what it takes to remain a valid GPU.
This graphics card was one of the most recommended at launch, but does it still perform as well with current games like Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Marvel's Spider-Man 2, or Kingdom Come: Deliverance II?
I bought it for $100, although today it's around $150-$200, and I tested it with DLSS 4 Transformer, ray tracing, and 1080p settings.
Let's see if this 8GB veteran can still handle it in 2025.
👇 Let me know in the comments if you also think it's still worth it or if it's time to move on.
