clock speed out of the box and cooling varies, the rest i guess is about the same.

1. Size. If it doesnt fit in your case then it's not worth thinking about

 

2. Price. The cheaper the better. The so-called OC versions or Extreme editions only give at most 5% extra performance so I wouldnt get those

 

3. Cooling. 1060 6gb isnt a hot card so even single fan coolers will do. They are also the cheapest bunch most of the time.

Will that clock speed make a difference in fps?

yes but not by much.

No, any difference in clock speed is minuscule and you can very very easily just change the clock speed yourself and have more improvement. Go for a cheap one, with two fans if you can. Gaming X and Strix are the higher end and will be quieter and cooler, but a good bit more expensive

That's an F in the profile pic

Any idea on gigabyte windforce 6gb? Also should I go on with 6gn or 3gb?

buy the cheapest 2 fan card for u, and buy the 6gb version, 3gb is very limiting and most games now can use more than 3gb which mean the games will run very slow.

as for clock speed gpu boost 3.0 will overclock all of the cards to the same core clock kinda, and u can overclock it more anyway, so the clock speed on the box doesnt matter.
