RGB is no longer in fashion today in the PC, it is a requirement that many users demand of any product of a certain value, so much so that the low end adopts it despite the fact that ‘it involves a higher cost. There are others who either reject it or directly turn off said lighting for different reasons, but what no doubt is that we all want a different PC. For this reason, PALIT designed the first graphics card that changes color without the need for RGB, called RTX 3060 Ti ColorPOP.
RGB allows us to customize each component and, depending on the graphics cards, achieve some truly amazing effects. But in the end, there is nothing new than the design and arrangement of the LED lights on the lid. PALIT has realized that the industry needs to go further and with the technology called “chameleon” it has achieved what no other has achieved.
PALIT RTX 3060 Ti ColorPOP
That’s right, comes the new leap in PC modding and comes in the hand of a graphics card as a new series that mostly replaces the manufacturer’s line called GamingPro so far. As they say, this series is dying out to make way for this ColorPOP, where the only thing that really changes is the design in terms of paint.
Therefore, we will have the same chip GA104-202 brings the RTX 3060 Ti to life with 4864 shaders, 152 TMU, 80 ROP as main units.
The frequencies are not modified either so we are talking about 1410 MHz and 1665 MHz respectively, where as their 8 GB of GDDR6 to have 14 Gbit / s.
The design consists of three cooling fans 8cm

Describe the graphics card itself, let’s see what the novelty is as such, and it is that the entire cover as well as the back plate are painted with a special paint which, according to the brand, offers three different colors in same time : blue, green and purple.
The color we see will depend on the angle of incidence of the light on said heat sink or cover, where it will change as we move or the light changes. This type of paint is known in the automotive tuning world as Chameleon and this is what Palit captured in the logo, where this series is accurately represented by said animal.
The base is a very fine primer for plastic, then the painting is carried out in three different layers with different dusts that allow to achieve the described effect, which does not imply that the card itself has its own system. RGB lighting. There is nothing like it on the market and it is possible that competing manufacturers will now see this as the next step, as although three different colors are not obtained, pearlescent or metallic colors involve the use of at least two bases, plus the varnish. Are we facing the first component that can set the 2022 modding trend?
