First images of the GTX 1060

@Fassou:

It's going to be very interesting to see the rivalry between the custom models of the different assemblers of GTX1060 and RX480.

Salu2!

Well since you mention that, has anyone seen any custom Inno3D model with OC as standard.

A little overkill that heatsink on a 120W card but I always appreciate it, I prefer it to be over-spec'd (with less noise) than with the cheap stock heatsink making noise…

Since you know what I like, you cheeky one

I definitely think that if they promise, everything that NVIDIA says, especially if it gives the performance of the GTX980, there is a lot to talk about, besides the fact that surely some specific "custom" model from some assembler will enable SLI, and that's it. It also depends on demand, and how far they want to go. Given the performance of the GTX 1080, and what this 1060 is said to be, it would be remarkable that the 1070 would stay at just over a 980ti, right?

This year, it seems that NVIDIA is working on it like never before, let's hope that ATI's response to the 1080 promises or at least gets close to it.

Well we already have a ton of reviews!

The good

Better performance than a GTX 980 makes for fantastic 1080p gaming
Aggressively priced to take on the RX 480—and it's faster too
Sharp reference cooler design
120W TDP
Plenty of overclocking headroom
The bad

No SLI support
The ugly

Yet another pricey Founders Edition that stiffs partners and consumers

You'll play your games up-to 2560x1440 with nice framerates and proper image quality settings. Obviously that 6 GB framebuffer helps out quite a bit and does make your graphics card a little more future proof. The new architecture proves its agility and the die shrink to 16 nm FinFET shows low power consumption due to lower voltages and obviously the high clock-speeds and that 8 Gbps GDDR5 memory offer the product that the GTX 1060 is. The GeForce GTX 1060 is a terrific choice for the ones that game in the 1920x1080 up-to 2560x1440 resolution domain.

Gamespot

While Nvidia is marketing the GeForce GTX 1060 as a capable graphics card to run 1080p games maxed out, it can also handle many 1440p games well. According to my numbers, the $300 graphics card runs 1.6 percent faster than the GTX 980–which is a card that you’ll still find online for roughly $100 more. While it isn’t always faster than the GTX 980, my tests do validate Nvidia’s assertions that the two cards are generally comparable.
Overall, the GTX 1060 is a great card for 1080p gaming, offers excellent VR performance for the price, overclocks well, runs cool, and is super-quiet.

Techspot

Pros: Cool operating temps, overclocks decently (better than competition), exceptional power efficiency. Strong DX11 performance. It's a really good value at $250 for partner boards.
Cons: The RX 480 4GB easily wins the cost per frame battle. Low-level API performance is concerning. No SLI support.

Does anyone understand why Guru3D says it's a bad option for playing at 1080p? Are they referring to the RX480 being a better option for its price/performance at 1080p (as pointed out by techspot)? The other sites say the opposite.

[Fassou]

Looking at Tom's Hardware, it seems that in DX12 it is still to be seen, but in DX11 at the same price, it seems that in most cases the GTX1060 usually beats the RX480, although in some pro-Nvidia games it is not so, and in others it loses.

I am looking forward to seeing the prices of the improved models from each manufacturer.

Salu2!

I hadn't seen this thread. I just opened another one on graphics.

Are Palit and Gainward from the same company? I say this because they have the same cooling and the truth is that they don't look bad for their price.

[Fassou]

Palit is a Chinese company, which usually has products at very competitive prices, and Gainward has been owned by them since 2005 <:(

Salu2!

MSI also has a very affordable model (up 30Mhz), although perhaps the Gainward looks a bit better, both for the cooler and the outputs.
