@Cyberspirit, get the cheapest, dual-fan GTX 1060 6GB you can find. By the way, where are you shopping from? :)

I've been leaning towards the Msi gtx 1060 gaming x because the specs seem pretty good and it looks really nice as well. 

But I would like to know if there is a better one. 

All the same really. Go for whatever colors/LEDs/etc. you like. Also, MSI has their reward zone for buying their products so your purchase goes towards points for extra freebies.

Oh I thought there were some better ones but I guess not.

Yeah. 

I could order from America but I think it would cost way more to ship. 

The parts seem to be a little more expensive here but I guess everyone wants some extra profit

Thanks :) I'm mostly looking here: https://www.arukereso.hu/videokartya-c3142/f:nvidia-geforce-video-chipset,ventilatorok-szama-2-darab/?st=Gtx+1060

 

But it's a Hungarian website. Other than this i usually just check newegg.com to see what is out there.

The cheapest 6GB model is THIS one. I'd suggest you go with it. If possible, try not to get the 3GB models, as they are weaker for about the same price. :)

While some reviews may say one is better, it's really random whether one does better than another or not and it's not anything you would notice as the average user. For example, which one runs cooler doesn't matter when you live in a cold place like Hungary anyway. :P
