[SOLVED] Should I buy this graphics card?

[Abel Rivera1]

I have a friend that is selling a EVGA gtx 1060 6gb sc for 110$, I really want a gtx 1060 but I’m not sure if this model is worth it?

It's the same graphics card underneath the EVGA cooling, not really much difference, you could argue some are binned a bit better than others but in reality, as long as you get one that suits your budget, aesthetic, and cooling needs, they're effectively the same.

I'm UK based, but $110 seems decent from what I can see. Presumably you mean the SSC Gaming?

Oh yeah ssc, will 1 fan make a difference, I’ve seen other gtx 1060 have 2 fans

No I was wondering, the SC is the single fan.
The SSC is the double fan.

So if it is SC, then it should be fine. Extra fans will of course make a difference, but as long as your ambient temps aren't extreme it should be fine anyway, they're still typically better than blower style GPUs. You may just found stock fan is a bit louder as loads increase.
