What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

if you can push more on your budget, save up more and buy the 1060 brand new. Don't buy 2nd hand cards, or you will end up like this guy. He bought a 2nd hand card and it fails him after a month.

oh ok, thanks :c i think i have to look for a 1050ti

 

You should just go for a 1060 6GB or an RX 580, they're almost back down to normal prices, you might find one on sale

yep i saw a 970 at 200$ and i wanted to try to buy a 1060 

 

I'd stick to an R9 390 or RX 480/680,. mainly for future free-sync savings on your monitor. and the extra vram may be useful in a few cases.
