So I've been planning to upgrade to a Nvidia GTX 1060 6Gb (time to say goodbye to that damn old GTX660 1,5Gb) and I've gathered a few choises. So basically these are the ones that I've picked; MSI GeForce GTX 1060 ARMOR 6G OCV1 - 333,00€ Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 Xtreme Gaming - 359,00€ EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 FTW+ Gaming ACX 3.0 - 359,00€ Asus GeForce GTX 1060 STRIX OC - 349,00€ (Asus GeForce GTX 1060 DUAL OC - 319,00€) So far I'm planning to buy the Asus Strix GPU (iirc it had the highest clocking speeds, plus my friend recently got one and likes it) but I want to hear your opinion about these cards/manufacturers. Also planning to buy this PSU to go with the GPU; https://www.jimms.fi/fi/Product/Sho...emi-modulaarinen-atx-virtalahde-80plus-bronze
All pretty good choices, I would go with the dual or tripple fan Asus card if I was to choose from that list, way better on the price and the 1060 is low power so there is no reason to go with anything crazy. PSU also looks like a good choice for now, although if you plan to upgrade in the near future it might be limiting with its wattage.
I have a nice flowchart for ya: Overclock? Yes, budget? No, go with ASUS TRIPLE FAN Yes, go with ASUS DOUBLE FAN No, budget? No, go with EVGA Yes, go with MSI It's very basic, but from a phone, is not bad
Do you think it's worth throwing in 14€ more for a 650W version of the same PSU? I don't really know if I'm going to upgrade anytime soon tho.
I would go with the cheapest GTX 1060, sometimes the difference I see is almost non existent. For example the cheapest card in that list vs the most expensive card in that list is a difference of maybe 2-4 fps.. then there's overclocking... The most expensive card is usually the one that will overclock well, the cheapest one may overclock poorly. To save money go with the cheapest card, by the time you need to overclock the card for more performance for the future demanding games the will be old anyways and a cheaper card will blow it away.
I'd recommend the EVGA FTW. They seem to be the most dependable on average, I personally like ASUS the best but they have a lot of issues with GPUs, but honestly just go for whatever is cheapest at the time. They are all 1060's so they will perform almost the same, and you can overclock or underclock them slightly to match the others.
Well, I decided to go with the Asus Strix after all because the price was in the middle and it came with a game key.
hello everyone i am going for a GTX 750 TI SC with 12 gigs of ram on a Core I5-3470 how good will Beamng.drive run (right now im on 4 gigs of ram and intel HD graphics) --- Post updated --- Also NO overclocking
It'll run just fine on high with that, also funny you say no overclocking when that card is factory overclocked... Also the 750Ti is a last gen card, go for an RX 460 or GTX 1050, same price, way faster.
ah sorry for the overclock that's on my CPU also it is one of the only one my power supply can handle (a 250 watt power supply) so I need a small one with a low power consumption. --- Post updated --- you know what I might go with the GTX 1050 IF it gets to 110 dollars --- Post updated --- I also need a DVA to VGA adapter :/
