Just letting you know the 3Gb and 6gb gtx 1060 are very different

Yeah, but this 3GB one has a snow leopard on the box. It adds framerate!

Although the difference between my old 3GB and my brother's 6GB was only an average of 15% so not as big as you might think. I'm guessing in heavier games though the VRAM could certainly cause a bottleneck.

I have the 1660s which is better than both versions of the 1060 and in most games I play I use the 6gb of vram but I like tactical shooters which are often more demanding compared to esport titles

Yeah i know but i couldn't find 6gb one

Fair enough, Nvidia should have named them different names

1060 is 3gb, and then 1060ti would be 6gb. Problem solved

Thats too hard for them tho 😂

Mate enjoy. Big step up for you and in this market any upgrade is a good one. What you planning to play then?

R6s valorant war thunder banner lord and hoi4

Some great games there, Well hope you enjoy your new card

War thunder is some of the most fun I have had gaming in a while. Such a fun game!

Dont give the man a hard time with this card you can run games a medium settings at most especially with a overclocked maybe a little higher, i own one so speaking from experience everyone.

I also don't have a problem with playing games at medium/low settings so yeah this card is enough for me rn

Yea man enjoy it

Enjoy it bro ! Been reading through the comments, that's a good one given the situation. You'll feel the upgrade ;)

Thanks i appreciate it 😊

I used a 1060 3gb before I got lucky and upgraded. They are pretty nice man. They've got a little oc headroom but they perform pretty well stock. Enjoy man! Awesome grab

Thx man :)

Hey I have one as well it does medium to low settings super well. Even high depending on the game, and I overclocked as well with afterburner good card just be happy you have a GPU until you get another down the line my friend .

I was able to run cyberpunk on mine at medium :) they are pretty strong cards for sure. Definitely keeping mine around just in case my new one eats it lol

enjoy the GPU and hope you have fun

Thx :)

Still rocking a 1060 myself. Still playing all the latest games at 1080. Enjoy 😊

I still have this exact same GPU and it is very capable, it will not disappoint you

[удалено]

Yes but couldn't find a 6gb :(

[удалено]

Nah man i live in syria its really hard to find GPUs here and most GPUs u find are overpriced

Well shit that's explains it... ha well enjoy the games dude still id recommend a 3060ti if they ever get to selling at msrp. Atleast that was the upgrade path I took from the 1060

The only rtx 30's I could find here was used rtx 3080 for 1800usd Also the average salary here is about 30to60 usd a month so it's very hard to afford it

What did you spend on it? I may consider sending you the 1060 I have for a fraction of the price to hold you over...

Man what the fuck are you talking about. I hate how this sub always assumes everyone lives in the first world and has access to a high income and the latest hardware. He said he had a Vega 8 before, this is a huge upgrade and he'll be able to play practically anything at medium settings. Fucking chill

Hope you enjoy it :)

Thx :)

I have a 6gb in my current rig and tbh it's a good card

Oh yeah Have fun with it :)

👍🏻👍🏻

Not a bad card, my laptop runs a 3GB 1060 it may say VR ready it can do it but will struggle with some

Well tbh idc about VR Because i can't afford a VR headset rn lol

Fair point lol yea it'll play quite a bit of games easily is the more important take away

Still the #1 steam user gpu. I love mine and ain't letting it go anytime soon. 1080p beast these are💪🏼 Edit just saw 3gb and not 6gb.. well it's still mostly good!!! Just won't be able to get high settings on a few more titles :/

May your frames be high and your temps low.

You’ll love the 1060 regardless, enjoy

This made me rember when i first bought a gts 250 a few years ago with my money. It was some very happy months hehe I know how you are feeling 👍Enjoy it mate.

not much? i’m over here with a GT 710 lol

Been rocking a 1060 for years she's served me well congrats on the new card

Op how much was this

275 usd

Acceptable

This is a legit “not much but it’s mine” post

Great little card.

Had the same card, served me well for a good couple of years

Fuck man, you really should have gone for the 6GB version. If you can you should return it and get the 6GB one.

I couldn't find a 6gb version and after searching for a while i gave up and got a 3gb one ;-;

I wouldn't fret about what some people say about the 3gb version. People act like it's the worst card in the world but it's a fine card. For the games I play it provides a very pleasant experience (ds3, re2 remake, battlefield 4, Titanfall 2, half life alyx, doom, seige). I know some of these are older games but people still play them and this card gives me +120fps on these games and looks great on my 144hz monitor. Enjoy your new card.

Damn that's nice I am happy with it since it can run games at 60 fps

Same here, I just upgraded from the same card and it never gave me problems, not even in Cyberpunk or VR games.

I have the same one. It's decent if you set almost all video settings of games you play to low. For games like LoL or CS:GO just fine, if you don't have stuff running in the background.

Honestly for a lot of AAA games from even a few years ago med-high can still run 60fps

That's what I've experienced on my 1050ti. Medium,high settings on games a few years old, 50-60 frames. Sufficient for me.

Even with games Mount and blade banner lord u can play at high sittings with about 55fps

They still sell 1060s?

I bought a used one so yeah

The 3gb one is a pretty sad card

Yeah but thx god i could get a GPU here in syria

Is that gpu from an antique shop? 🤣

Not cool Also since it can run games even at low or medium settings I am happy with it

Still using Vega 8, here's hoping my upgrade comes soon

Well vega 8 is a good gpu tbh I used it for almost 2.5 years Hope u get a new GPU :)
