crow10013GB lol, only muppets would go for this junk.

renz496looking forward to it. personally i'm interested to see how this going to fare against full fat 1060 6GB. did the performance are very similar between the two that nvidia decided not to call this 3GB version as 1060 SE

RaviSSAs it has 90% of cores but retains 100% bandwidth... It would have given 93-95% with full 6GB. As the memory is now only 3GB it should impact 1080p performance by further 2-10% depending on games. Overall it should give 87-90% of 1060 6GB performance.

For comparison 480 8GB gives 90% and 480 4GB gives 85%. GTX 970 also gives 85%.

Thus it could be a brilliant $200 card (if it is indeed available at that price).

Captain_TomReference 480 maybe, but AIB 480's that stay locked at 1260 MHz have already proven to be as strong or stronger than the 1060 (And they are still cheaper).

RaviSSWell... By that logic, AIB 1060 3GB overclocked at 1.9-2.0Ghz would still be faster.

And don't forget that 1060 consumes 40-50 watts less.

Captain_TomDid you even watch the benchmarks? The 1060 in the video is clocked at 2.1 GHz.

RaviSSI don't care for benchmarks provided by Nvidia/AMD. According to TPU performance summary page for 1060 review.... RX 480 8GB at STOCK CLOCKS is 10% slower than GTX 1060 6GB at STOCK CLOCKS (at 1080p).

Captain_TomGod forbid we seek multiple sources to fact check each other. Note that the benchmarks here were done using launch drivers, which are 10% slower than the current drivers.

What I just heard you say was "Someone is saying something that is contrary to what I want to believe, so I will now put my head in the sand."

RaviSSlol... how ironic...

This here is a review of MSI RX480 which is factory overclocked and was reviewed 15 days later than 1060, so had more up-to-date drivers.

www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/RX_480_Gaming_X/23.html

As you can see 1060 (with launch drivers) is still 5-6% faster than RX 480 (with updated drivers) at 1080p/1440p resolutions.

efikkanThis class of GPUs would rarely need more than 3GB, and especially if you want to play >60 FPS, then the details will not be too high.

The 3Gb is super close to the 6Gb ( The 3Gb seems to have driver issue with games like Tomb Raider, so they had to use a old driver). they are as fast/faster than a RX 480 in game that are not Amd optimized.
