Meanwhile, the Silicon Valley store issued the following statement on its Facebook page:

“Some people didn’t believe us, and we blame you for that. But after this video, you will believe. Exclusively in the territory of Saudi Arabia and to the official start of the sales model of the GeForce Ti RTX 3060 is already available in our showrooms, as well as in our online store “.

After that, the seller posted a video from his retail store, where several packages of Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Eagle graphics cards can be noted.

“A surprise for the whole Kingdom. [GeForce RTX 3060 Ti] has arrived and is available for purchase prior to its official release, ”added Silicon Valley store.

By the way, the seller estimated the version of the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti at 3666 Saudi riyals, which at the current local exchange rate is about $ 986. According to forecasts, the official cost of the younger model Ampere will be less than $ 400. Thus, the store from Saudi Arabia “overestimated” it by more than 2 times. But this is not surprising at all. With a shortage of older models GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090, many potential buyers of these video cards from this country complained that local sellers almost doubled their prices for them.

Earlier it was reported that the official release of the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti video card was allegedly postponed from the originally scheduled date of November 17 to December 2. Whether this is really so, we will find out relatively soon.
