Hi guys
After recently receiving your advice on a gpu (rx470-80 was recommended) i have got a little extra cash, and i would really like to make use of shadowplay. So the question is, which entry level 1060 should i get?

I have been told not to buy the blower type fans as they are noisy and my pc is in my bedroom.
So what do you think guys, any help is appreciated :)

That's about the cheapest ok card that you can get. However, the short 2 year warranty and RMA requiring you to send to Hong Kong isn't great.

Although out of stock, this card has a UK RMA centre. However, it may have slightly worse cooling (than the Palit) and has fewer video output ports.



Both are good cards for the money, good cooling solutions etc. I would probably go for the Palit card if I had to pick, only heard good things from it. However, you could save a tiny bit more and get:

But they have worse cooling solutions, so will run hotter and louder. However, the Zotac card particularly has the strongest warranty of any card linked. But, for an RMA I think you still have to send it to Hong Kong. Personally, I would avoid these 2 cards and go for the Palit one I linked.
