Question 1

Does the "Geforce GTX 1060" glow with LEDs?

Accepted Answer

Guys i've owned this for a month now, LED's are white in bios outside OS and red under any driver support (Windows/Linux/etc i've tried all). It's a great card for the price especially when they first had it and gave gears 4 and a newegg promo gift card with it. Excellent choice.

The GTX 1060 OC does not light up, the LED's are under the fans. Cheers

Question 2

Will this card sli with the 3gb version?

Accepted Answer

No because the gtx 1060 serious doesn't include the sli feature

Question 3

256-bit memory interface? Is it true?

Accepted Answer

No, it's 192 bit. PNY website specs.

Question 4

Does this card support crossfire?

Accepted Answer

Do you mean SLI? because this is an NVIDIA card. SLI on this GTX 1060 is not supported.

Question 5

my dual monitor setup currently uses DVI. Only one monitor has HDMI, so will need to purchase DP to DVI adapter. But question is whether this card is DP++ compatible? Will it require an active adapter or can a passive adapter work?

Accepted Answer

Erm the Video card has DVI, HDMI and 3 Display port so based on what you said you can use the DVI and HDMI so you dont need a DP to DVI adapter.

Question 6

For games like: Arma, Battlefield. Counter Strike, etc., does this run smoothly?

Accepted Answer

Yes!

Question 7

What kind of graphics score does this card get in Time Spy/Firestrike? If anyone play BF4 or BF1, what FPS are you seeing?

Accepted Answer

I wouldn't choose a gfx card based on 3dmark benchmarks.. as those benchie #'s don't mean too much in real world situations, it's more about individual game optimization. It'll play BF1 without a hitch on max settings. Cheers

Question 8

What kind of scores does anyone get on Time Spy/Firestrike? Temps under load? If you play BF1, what kind of framerates are you getting? I'm using a i7-4770k@4.0ghz as my everyday clocks. 16gb ram(Corsair Vengence 1600/ can OC it to 1866)

Accepted Answer

As any other GTX 1060 6GB. They all are practically the same - you wont feel the real difference.
Look for decent build and cooling. Like this one ;)

Question 9

Why is there a bulge at the top?

Accepted Answer

That bulge is actually the "GEFORCE GTX 1060 OC" displayed. When in your case that points outward and displays the name of the card quite well. It looks great imo!
