Hey, I was just browsing newegg for some deals and found a strix 1060 6gb for 300 or 280 with rebate.  Is it worth the extra money to get this at this price than an asus dual 1060 or msi armor 1060 (both 6gb)

I'd just get the cheapest 6gb 1060. There isn't really any reason to pay more for a specific model.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

No, $280 is waaay too much for a 6GB 1060.

 

You can get the MSI Gaming X for $255 https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1264797-REG/msi_geforce_gtx_1060_gaming.html

Probably, I mean that's the day that all the big sales are supposed to happen, right?
