anyone here owns/owned the 1060 3gb version ? it is the only reasonably priced card here and i am worried about the 3gb bit
whats your experience with the card ?

 

[Felix Tan]

The 3 GB version is 10% slower than the 6 GB version.

After super OC better than 6gb, BUT BUT BUT !!! I`m Sell very fast this card, struggle with Wolfenstein 2 even low texture use in some scene more than 3Gb and fps drops to 36fps in more demanding level, after very high OC 2150mhz core and 9200mhz memory I have supreme result but 3GB Vram struggle, you can play high setting 60fps if you stay with not very high texture setting. Price/Performance is the best but you must lower some textures in games, not recommended for 2018. Better bye used 970 with 4(3.5) GB and OC.

Just get the 6gb!

 

[Avni Kastrati]

Its great

 

[Jeremy Alan Barnes]

And if you don't mins going used get yourself a 970 or a 980

at what resolution u r planning to play?3gb is fine if u dont want ultra textures.u can play in med-high or maybe very high textures in a less demanding game and all settings tuned to ultra.great card..

 

[Garrett Orleans]

Cards won't tend to use all of their ram, and such. You should be fine

You'll hit the 3GB wall in many gamez if you get the 3gb 1060. trust me i've seen it. avoid it at any cost unless you want to play at low/medium graphics settings. GTX 970 4GB, RX 570 4GB are way way better choice. an OC'ed 970 performs like 980~1060 6gb stock

 

[Omar Yaish]

please only comment if you have experience with the card
thanks Paweł Piwowar for the input

I had a gigabyte windforce 1060 3gb for about a year, playing med-high settings on all the games I played such as rainbow 6 siege, doom, overwatch, and still getting over 70fps in each. Not a bad card

 

[Benjamin Picknell]

go for the 6gb

 

[Ritik Sharma]

Get a 6gb One Just For a Little more money

 

[Omar Yaish]

I just ordered the 1060 3gb

 

[Omar Yaish]

The 6gb is like 40% more expensive
