I'm in a very weird situation. My graphics card has one HDMI and three DisplayPorts. The HDMI port died in a thunderstorm two months ago - that's a different story. However, I was using two monitors just fine using a DisplayPort to HDMI and a DisplayPort to VGA converter. Last week, the monitor...
hi, not so long ago i changed my psu to an Evga 600W 80 plus bronze from a crorsair cx600W because my old one was broken. and when I wanted to start the computer, I had to reset my bios, but my cpu changed to 2.89 ghz and before it was set to 3.99 and I don't dare to overclock myself, my friend...
Hello world.
This is my first ever post on Tom's hardware
So, if I'm doing anything wrong, forgive me. I'm not a frequent forum poster, I mostly just lurk around forums but never actually post anything.
My current custom desktop build still gives me joy and no issues whatsoever, but I know...
I have an old tower with an extremely outdated mobo so replacing processors is tricky. Wanted to upgrade my graphics at least with an additional 1060 6GB card if possible. Is this a thing?
Hi there,
As you all are aware that currently is the worst time to buy a new gpu. Also I'm waiting for the new budget gpus like RTX 3050 TI or similar but I don't think Nvidia or AMD can keep up with the demand at least for a year. But I have got 2 offers to purchase below GPUs around...
I bought a pc with a intel i5 6600k and a gtx 1060 6gb factory overclocked but for some reason with every game i play i sit at 100% CPU usage and only 20-40% GPU usage. Some games stutter a lot too. Any tips on how to use my graphics card more and will this give me better frames?

Good evening, I'll try to explain what is happening as briefly as possible. Recently my GPU fan has stopped spinning properly, it's not like it's at 0 rpm always, but it simply fails sometimes. The problem is, it behaves differently each day, there are days that it'll work perfectly the whole...

Hey guys,
I'm currently thinking about posting a friend of mine a GTX 1060 6GB GPU. His current GPU is a GTX 960 and it isn't really cutting it for him. My issue is whether his current set up will support it and I'm concerned about spending the money to post it to a different country only for...

Hi, I would like to make sure every single part of the Pc I am going to build is compatible so I would like you to tell me if there is any chance the gpu isn't compatible with my cpu, ram or motherboard.
(I already own the gpu so can't choose another one)
(Also I have already ordered the parts...

can i handle 2 144hz screens? i know i probably can't play games on both of them, so i need one for gaming and the other for youtube or something. i looked up on the internet but there were some diffrent opinions, so i ask it here. ( for the people...
I've recently bought a new monitor, i plan to have duel screens along side my HP Pavilion 24xw. The issue is that this new monitor needs a VGA connector and my GPU (GTX 1060 6GB) only supports Display Port, HDMI and DVI-D. Because my current monitor is connected to the HDMI port, i bought a...
Hello, new here. I bought a pre-built (I'm not fantastic when it comes to building machines as I've never done it before. I plan to learn eventually, mind you) from ADMI on Amazon. It's an i7-7700 kaby lake (not the K, so can't overclock) with a GTX 1060 6GB. It comes with the stock intel fan...

Hello everyone.
I have had this problem pretty much since building my pc and i just thought it was supposed to look and feel like this, until i tried my friends pc with the same specs and they felt worlds apart. mine for the worse :(
it is like a constant microstutter that is happening at all...
My old m5a97 motherboard fried and I'm going for a budget build capable of using the same gpu gtx 1060.
I'm really on a tight budget here and I'm not going to OC any of my components. I just need a budget solution for a short term that also has some room for an upgrade.
I came up with this...
Hello, greetings
So I've had my pc for a couple of years now and postponed trying to find a solution,
but I am wondering why I would be receiving such appalling fps in games with my pc, in the 20's and below
For example, I thought I'd try out the game Frostpunk on Steam. Judging by its system...
I have bought Hp Z230 Workstation with intel Xeon e3 1270 v3. It has 400-W (wide-ranging, active power factor correction, 92% Efficient) Psu. There is 6 pin psi express power connecter. I’m going to buy Msi Gaming x GeForce GTX 1060 6gb GPU.
Msi Gaming x GeForce GTX 1060 6gb GPU require 8 pin...
I have a laptop with a 1060 6GB. I have recently started playing The Division 2 and discovered that I had quite a lackluster performance.
I opened up my Task Manager on my second screen and checked the usage of my GPU while playing. My GPU at best was working at 30% load (and that was quite a...
I have a 650W PSU -

(most probably something made in China). So far, it runs my current setup just fine, the PSU itself runs for a seventh year. Because of the brand (and what I have read on other sites), I'm a little worried about if it will handle the card...
I have an ASUS TUF FX504GM-E4112T with GTX 1060 6GB. I am a rookie gaming enthusiast, so was very careful about getting 60 fps on high settings. However, my laptop is performing decently below the benchmarks I see in Youtube videos. For instance, I get merely 10-15 fps in Witcher 3 on High...
I'm currently trying to decide which card to buy. I've watched multiple benchmarking videos and the differences aren't really significant. I guess the RX 580 is slightly better, but what bothers me is the power consumption of this card. It's said to be at least 65 watt higher than the GTX 1060...
Hi all,
I am wondering if this cpu will work well for 3D animation and modelling work. Also, I know people are going to tell me to ditch the platform and upgrade, but that is not in my budget right now. I would get the (K) version of the cpu, however that is more than a $100 dollars extra...
Hi,
I recently decided to upgrade my old GPU/CPU to a GTX 1060 6GB and an i5-8400.
I did consider a Ryzen 5 2600X too but as my motherboard is stuck at AM3+ socket CPUs I guess I couldn't get any better than what I currently have.
Long story short, I need to upgrade my motherboard to get a new...
I Have The Following Hardware:
Motherboard =MSI H97 Gaming 3
CPU =I7-4790(Non K)
Ram =1 x 8GB Corsair 1600 Mhz DDR 3
PSU =Corsair CS750M
If i take a GTX 1060 6GB Will It Bottleneck?
Hello,
before I post here I've read the forum rules, searched through various threads on the forum (and outside the forum) but since new GPUs have been released and my CPU is quite old I've decided it's best to ask a new question since the existing information is a bit obsolete. This is part of...
So I was hoping to buy a GPU, and I'm on a tight budget, and since the RX580 prices have fallen through the floor, I was wondering if this would be a good combination. Here are my specs:
Ryzen 3 2200G (@3.5 GHz, not planning on overclocking)
8GB DDR4 RAM @2400 MHz (hoping to upgrade to 16 in...
