GTX 1060 6gb

[Xmasholiday300]

maybe this is an obvious question maybe not I don't know

I plan on buying a gtx 1060 6gb in like a month or so now does it matter what brand you get
performance wise not like if it has some extra outputs others don't like if you go get a gtx 1060 6gb
nvida evga or gigabyte mini ITX version of the card
like would a http://www.ebay.com/itm/GIGABYTE-GeForce-GTX-1060-Mini-ITX-OC-6GB-/232233865784?hash=item3612379238:g:jKMAAOSwLEtYm6Pq

be any different than a http://www.ebay.com/itm/PNY-GeForce-GTX-1060-6GB-Graphics-Card-VCGGTX10606PB-/132038052090?hash=item1ebe14c8fa:g:BgIAAOSwcUBYVj8R

performance wise ?

for me like here in the U.S.A its how well you get treated on support after the sale and in my opinion if theres a issue with your card its hard to beat EVGA support and RMA / warrantee service . now who services you the best in your area maybe worth a look ?

out side of that there just NVidia gtx 1060 cards under there coolers and then I guess the higher the factory guaranteed factory speced clocks are the better it should preform - also you see a lot on that ''luck of the draw'' that can come in to play as well

''those who know NVidia know evga '' as they say

good luck

I wouldn't buy from ebay , to many fake cards.

 

[junkeymonkey]

true. I guess I missed that part on E-bay unless it from like newegg e-bay store. I'd want to use a trusted authorized brand retailer

ebay risk 229

trusted site/store newegg 249 ??

and heck!!! that on e-bay is used ????

come on

 

[Xmasholiday300]

well besides the support team for the card or were I buy it does it really matter performance wise
what gtx 1060 brand you get performance wise

 

[junkeymonkey]

for the shorty card I linked the one I would get off hand ?? but you got to do whats best for you not me and that pyn has not specs listed to compare to ?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Performance is fairly equal on the 1060 6gb models , a few differences here and there with factory OC cards.

 

[Xmasholiday300]

im not buying from those guys i put up on the chat up their or ebay im just using them as a comparsion
does brand effect performance

 

[Xmasholiday300]

ok i see so pretty much what your saying one gtx 1060 6gb brand may be like 1-2% faster than another but in a nutshell their all the same

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Pretty much that is correct.

 

[Xmasholiday300]

ok thanks lol

 

[junkeymonkey]

at newegg that pny you linked is just clocked at reference specs on the clocks ???

Core Clock 1506 MHz
• Boost Clock 1708 MHz


https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA65C4Z97980

that evga shorty is factory clocked higher

•1607MHz Base Clock
•1835MHz Boost Clock

 

[junkeymonkey]

wow what a bad best answer

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I have an ASUS Dual and ROG Strix , not much of a difference in performance , very minimal.

 

[Xmasholiday300]

lol i have my answer tho now id pick ya both as solution if i could but thanks

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

We are glad to assist have a great day!

Not worried about I best Solution , just glad you posted so we could help.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I selected the Best Solution that fits your question.

 

[junkeymonkey]

thing is you want the best factory clocked card at the price them cards are tested better to be able to hold a stable highest factory clocking

not to say a reference clocked card could not oc to that but that's all part of luck of the draw you may get a card that clocks well and great or you may not get one that will at all , but what ever evga states as the speced clocks on there cards is guaranteed and 90 % of the time they will do a bit more out of the box [again luck of the draw ]

my card is speced for 1250 boost by evga as a guaranteed min, but it does 1375 out of the box stock with out any added overclocking and I can overclock it to a 24/7 1450

I see high factory clocked cards like zotac that cant even hold there factory overclocks as well from then trying to push them a bit too far to try to be king

thing is 2ed most reviewed card at newegg in the 1060's and 87% satisfaction ???? that's just the 5 egg another 10% in 4 egg] sounds like a good bet

thing is no matter what brand it will work as you expect or it don't and with pascal cards luck of the draw seem to be more in play

good luck
