MSI’s GF65 gaming laptop has been spotted, featuring the yet unannounced NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Max-Q graphics card and Intel’s Core i7-10750H CPU. The GPU is paired with 6GB of GGDR6 memory and will likely feature 3,840 cores across a 192-bit bus.
As already reported, NVIDIA is working on three variants of the GeForce RTX 3060: The vanilla 3060, the 3060 Ti, and the 3060 Ultra, in order of increasing performance. The RTX 3060 will come with a 6GB VRAM buffer, the 3060 Ti with 8GB, and the 3080 Ultra with 12GB. Apart from the VRAM, the bus interface of these cards will also be different. The RTX 3060 and the 3060 Ultra will both feature a 192-bit bus while the 3060 Ti will be paired with a wider 256-bit bus.
