Best Brand Of 1060 3GB?

Staris

Hi All,

 

I am wondering which type of brand of GTX 1060 3GB, I should get?

 

For Example:

 

ASUS Mini

ASUS DUAL OC FULL SIZE

MSI OC

EVGA SUPERCLOCKED MINI

Gigabyte Mini ITX

Gigabyte FULL SIZE

ZOTAC Mini

 

Which one would you recommend and why?

I'm probably getting one sometime soon. I am going with the EVGA GTX 1060 SSC 3 GB. For you, I would probably go with the EVGA SUPERCLOCKED MINI because I've personally heard the most good things about EVGA, especially with customer support. I heard performance is very good for the buck.

I’d get any of the full sized ones if you’re looking for performance. From there, the brands don’t really matter, you can choose whatever aesthetic you prefer or whatever is cheaper at be moment.

I have an Asus Dual GTX 1060 OC 3GB, it's a beautiful graphics card, albeit quite cheap-feeling. The fans only activate when the card reaches 60°C, and even then the highest I've seen the card reach is 65°C, it's a solid card.

Avoid the Armor if you can. Everything else doesn't really matter

Depends on your colour scheme, honestly I think the one with the best cooler is the MSI one as I am using a MSI GPU and it is impossible to get it to throttle (I think GPUs throttle, anyway it never went above 70c) while gaming at 95% utilization. May I add my GPU is using the fourth generation of MSI's cooler so the fifth generation should be better.

Kogan 144hz monitor (Overclocked to 165) Ryzen 3 3100, RX 580 Gigabyte Windforce (1450 mhz) 2 x 8GB CL15 DDR4 3133 (Overclocked from 2400) Phanteks P300 white (RGB set to purple), Zarrius Deskpad (I have the yellow one), Razer Deathadder Essential, CK62 wireless (don’t use it wireless)
