Got it 5 days ago.

Pretty high temps actually not gonna lie. It goes and stops at 72c under big load. I mean like fur mark 1080p 8x msaa load.

Coild whine is TERRIBLE. Its like having 1060 insects in my pc case. But u cant hear it when u have headphones on. And it happens only when u game. Soo i sugguest Cap the fps on 60 - 62 soo it doesnt make that much noise

Havent tried overclocking it yet.

Another pro: Minimum psu is 400w. 

Conclusion: Spent 340euros. Can i say im happy? 7/10. Well i mean it was an upgrade from my 7870 oc edition wich was amazing card. Thats all i have to say to people who want to get the 1060 g1. if u can bear the noise. Its a good card after all.

Pretty amazing, if you ask me. I honestly don't know what are you complaining about, those temps are chill AF.

Considering that gigabyte 7870oc with triple windforce never went over 61 on full load the 1060 g1 is pretty hot

And yes i maybe got unlucky but as i see 80% of other people got unlucky also.

I got Palit 1060 for €310 because I did not wanted to wait two weeks for Gainward which was €270.

 

Max temp after OC also 72*C at 60% fan speed. Which is audible but it is not annoying at all. At 50% fan speed it is fairly quiet. No coil whine.

2076MHz core, 9000MHz memory.

 

Cooler is just plastic shroud around heatsink with heatpipes. No backplate and no LEDs. Custom PCB though.

I guess you got unlucky with the coil whine. Try OC.
