Is GTX 1060 3gb worth my money? I want to do 1080p gaming (CSGO mostly), will I get 100+ fps in ESports quality?

ezpz. You could just google benchmarks, but a 1060 3GB should be fine for CS:GO. That said, if you can find a 6GB for a reasonable price, get it, it's a much better card.

I don't know about 100fps but I run a GTX 1060 (6GB) in my laptop and it copes with everything I throw at it. I should play some games and note the fps just so I know...

My kids play all of the COD games on my laptop and their experience is a positive one. I'm not that up to speed with fps, does it depend on your type of monitor/screen as well or just your graphics card??

Fps depends on a graphics card and internet connection.

Do you have the latest version installed? I have heard that they optimized the game in the new update.

So I'm going with the RX-560...will that be a wise decision?

yes because it's a easy to find card and will give you more than 100fps in 1080 in cs:go, of that's what you want it for.

You could get a last gen GTX970 I did, would easily get 100fps and way more:

 

 

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it. :P
