GTX 1060

[DPB]

Any chance of Nvidia releasing 1060ti ?

Maybe, but I don't think it's all that likely. The gap from 960 to 970 last generation was pretty huge, but even then they still didn't release anything in between. This time round the difference is much smaller.

Nvidia seems to be producing far fewer variants than they used to, like the 600 series when they had a card for every possible price/performance point.

The new GTX 1060. At the budget beating price of £299 or more. You know it's true.

Mine was 230. You can't just quote the higher prices.

You'd have to be pretty mad to buy even the cheapest 1060 3GB at £188 !!! What a rip off.

Figured it was about time to retire my ageing 660ti (and contribute to this forum!), so have jumped on the Evga 1060 SC bandwagon. Size, temps and 0db mode were all too tempting.

Won't get chance to play with it until next weekend but will report back for anyone thinking of making a similar jump.

Was tempted by the 1070 but prices are silly. But hey, let's see what they're like in 89 days in case Step-Up tempts me back...

I'm really happy with mine. Do report back what yours boost to without any overclocking from yourself, mine gets to slightly above 2ghz with no hassle at all. I also find that when I set my fan speed to 50% my temps somehow stay below 50c in less intensive games (WoW, CSGO etc). I'm not sure if the low temps are a testament to EVGA's cooling solution or the low power draw of the 1060. Either way, I'm very impressed.

Hello all,
I have Plait GTX 1060 SuperJeStream...but I can`t see my ASIC score because in GPU-Z it`s not supported on this graphics card... Is it common with GTX 1060?
Also, I have issue with PhysX in Warface, can not enable in the game in options... In Nvidea control panel I select GPU and still nothing... Any suggestions?
I`ve already reset Windows10 and install everything from scratch...nothing changed in Warface with PhysX...
Thank you.

Finally got around to installing the card and I'm very pleased so far. Immediately noticed the Boost clock reaching 2012 mhz without any adjustment from me, as you said it might. Will check out the 0db bios update, but other than that may not bother with overclocking at this stage as seems to be flying through anything I throw at it.

That's the 0db update if you're looking for it.

Same as mine.

Put a wee overclock on it with Precisionx.. Running very smoothly at 2100mhz. Happy to to leave it at that!

any benchmarks from valley or 3dmark? Im tempted to get a 1060 to use till next year to replace the 970 just wondering if it would be worth it.

my lad will get my 970 and ill sell the 7950

I'm getting similar scores in Valley and games run fine 95% of the time but sometimes in I get odd framerate drops to 57-58 fps and its really starting to annoy me now.

I thought it might be due to the variable clock / gpu boost thing but it still happens with power management set to maximum performance. So far I'm not entirely thrilled with my switch to nvidia

For your OC, what are temps like when under load and what is fan curve at?

Cheers

 

[iakona]

sorry double post

 

[iakona]

Never goes above 65. Usually it's around the 60 mark at load..

EDIT // Lowering the fan speed to a maximum 60% at any time still only sees the GPU running at 66/67 degreEs at full load

my 970 needs a pretty serious overclock to get up to that level.

nice. have you ran a 3dmark? looks like the 1060 will be a wee upgrade over the 970 and would be better with dx12.
