NVIDIA leaves no doubts about who is the leader of the graphics cards market. Following the spectacular success of their high-end GeForce 1080 and 1070 series models, this card is an ideal choice for those gamers, who want to play at a resolution of up to 2560 × 1440 pixels, as this is the main aim of GeForce GTX 1060.
Due to 16nm manufacturing technology and the new Pascal architecture, the manufacturer promises not only noticeably higher performance but a much higher efficiency. Expected power consumption is therefore only 120W, while comparable cards, such as GTX 980, required up to 165W for their operation.
The MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X 6GB offers high performance provided by 1280 CUDA cores, 80 texturing and 48 rendering units. The Pascal GP106 core overclocks up to 1809MHz in Boost mode. The graphics chip is complemented by 6GB of GDDR5 memory with 192GB/s of data bandwidth.
MSI's graphics card rightfully belongs to the GAMING edition. It offers reworked Twin Frozr VI cooler that has altered fan blades and improved ball bearings. The Twin Frozr VI cooler is equipped with Zero Frozr fans, presented for the first time by MSI in 2008. This technology shuts down cooling fans during low workload of the graphics card and in comparison with other graphics cards, you will not hear distracting noise from your gaming rig, and thus you can fully enjoy your gaming experience.
