What type of moron would choose a gimped 3gb 1060 (pic related)

Your mom

I got the 6gb version and its great desu
In Europe the superclocked version (nvrmnd the regular one) is actually cheaper than the AiB rx480. The single fan is more than enough -- shit runs cool with the new bios evga released, and I easily added 90mhz on top of the stock oc.

The whole 480 being more future-proof than 1060 is a meme since there are gonna be better dx12 gpus in two years from now, so only spergs and retards cling on to pipe-dreams just to validate their purchasing choices.

The 6gb is fine, the 3gb is legitimately gimped, not just memory and somehow they're able to keep the 1060 name.

Fucking Jews

What kind of idiot buys a 1060 over 1070

>>56198748

It still isn't a true dx12 graphics card, and the extra 20 fps over 1060 is noth worth the 50% price premium desu

>>56197263
I'm thinking of going for an MSI rx 480 as it runs very quiet and cool.

Or an EVGA 1060. What do? Both would cost £250

I'm gonna buy it. It's a great dedicated physx card for an 1080.

>>56199038
£170 470
put the 80 elizabethans towards a HBM2 card

>>56199090
It is tempting as I am looking into a freesync. And both cards are the same price.

>>56199311
I'm not a poor fag but I'm too lazy to resell in a few years or months despite Volta/vega's closeness, I will be running this for 4 years and am currently on a 750ti.

I'm getting the MSI 480 Gaming X mainly because I want a Freesync monitor on the cheap.

Because the 480 is out of stock fucking everywhere.

>>56197263

Is there a 480 in a small form factor for an itx case?

>>56199407
Sadly a lot of the 1060 AIB's are still on pre-order.

>>56199516
Nah, too warm, the cards architecture is just too bloody hungry in comparison.

>>56199721
>Nah, too warm
That's what I figured. Thanks anon.

>>56199747
It speaks for the chip itself when there's no small scale AIB. It's not put me off the idea of an RX 480 just wouldn't use one for an ITX.

Do you really need an ITX though or is it for fun?

>>56198748
Costs at least $100 more, so anyone who's not exceeding 1080@60

>>56199832

I fell for the ITX meme about 2 years ago, and am going to be sticking there until I build a new system when Zen comes out (probably will be micro-ATX then). Just curious about in the interim.

Fair enough, I wanted to give one a go then realize is downsizing really worth the hassle.

Someone wanted me to build one for them but I advised against it to save me a headache.
