[SOLVED] Is this an Engineering Sample?

I know that Nvidia says that the Founders Edition is what they send to companies, but what is this card that I have then? It came from a 3rd party company making aftermarket GPUs... http://www.galax.com/media/wysiwyg/store/news/1060b.jpg

BTW It looks the same as the one in the photo, but is not from Galax.

That's just the reference design gtx 1060. Galax is one of the companies that sells them apart from nvidia themselves.

Do you know where I could get another one of these?

Why do you want another one of these? It's literally the worst version of the regular 1060 out there due to the bad cooler and lower boostclocks due to it.

Also the 1060 doesn't do sli or multigpu.
