But if you made that assumption, you would be wrong. The reason for the controversy was Nvidia doing Nvidia things: the 3GB version of the GTX 1060 sounded like it'd be the same as the original but with half as much VRAM. Hot on the heels of that release, a month later, Nvidia released the controversial 3GB version. That alone should be quite interesting.Īs a quick refresher, the original GTX 1060 6GB was released back in July 2016, that's 5 years ago. A second reason to put together this test is that we want to see how a graphics card with just 3GB of VRAM is getting on in 2021. Today we're taking a look at the 3GB version of the GeForce GTX 1060 which sells for ~$200-250 on eBay, and that's about $100 less than what you can expect to pay for the 6GB model.
It's a valid trade-off for many and so we've revisited the likes of the GeForce GTX 1070, GTX 1060 6GB, and Radeon RX 580, running the latest drivers and today's games to see how they do. Recently we've been checking out previous-gen graphics cards that you can buy at "decent" prices used, if you want a GPU for gaming, but don't want to pay inflated prices.
