The Web featured a review of a GeForce RTX 3060, which is quite unusual. In response to the crisis in video cards, Chinese companies started offering a GeForceRTX3060 desktop card that was based on a mobile core. They took a mobile RTX3060 and made it a desktop card.
This variant has more CUDA Cores (3840 vs. 3584 cores), but lower core clocks, and half the memory (6GB vs. 12GB).
Source tested the test card with a TDP just 80W. The novelty performed roughly the same as the mobile RTX3060M, which has a TDP at 105 W. Sometimes, it even performed a bit faster. The desktop RTX3060 performs slightly faster.
It is true that such an adapter shouldn’t exist. Modern drivers don’t support it. You will need to use a third party one for version 512.15.
