Not all of them. The 3060 Ti was great because it was actually built on the same underlying chip as the 3070 and 3070 Ti. Which ironically made those less valuable.

But the release of those cards was during Covid pricing weirdness times. I scored a 3070 Ti at €650, whilst the 3060 Ti's that I actually wanted were being sold for €700+. Viva la Discord bots.

I believe 3060 Ti's were in higher demand because they were a great value for shitcoin mining, especially after tuning (e.g. undervolting).
