Is a GTX1060 worth it?

I want to buy a GTX1060 with 6GB, is it worth it for 150 euro? Right now I'm playing Osu! Fortnite, CSGO, LoL, Beamng, Cities Skylines. I have a 144hz monitor.

For about 170 EUR you get alternatively a same fast https://www.mindfactory.de/...73132.html new, you can think about it.

Personally, I would prefer the GTX 1060 but also because of lower power consumption and quieter fan.

I would make it dependent on how old the GTX 1060 is, if it is older than 1 year, it should e.g. Only 100 EUR cost.

The RX580 bottlenecked my cpu.

mi

Which CPU do you have? The GTX 1060 is just as fast as the RX 580, so if the 580 bottlenecks, the GTX 1060 does the same.

un

Fx8320, the CPU seems to be slowed down by the 580th

Ab

The graphics card should be the Bottelneck

Se

I would rather resort to the rx580

un

My cpu is being slowed down by the 580.

:-)

It is the other way around: the CPU slows down your RX 580. You urgently need a new CPU, the FX is very slow, which often creates only 30 FPS in current games.

Unfortunately, you need a new mainboard and DDR4 RAM, which makes the upgrade quite expensive…

Your upgrade KIT could be e.g. https://www.mindfactory.de/...2985233ebb

For 144 Hz, but worth a new graphics card, here would be a RTX 2070 almost https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/...3923vs4029 as the RX 580th

But rather buy a new graphics card as long as you still have the FX CPU, that will bring almost nothing… Just 144 Hz require a powerful CPU.

Se

Why? The 580 is slightly stronger than the gtx 1060 so it makes no sense

un

I usually get over 120fps in the games (except for beamng and cities skylines of course) at csgo on mirage zb 240fps. PS: thanks for the upgrade kit, but already have a 1TB SSD. I would like to wait another year to wait until I buy this upgrade kit, because I bought 16gb ram just 1 month ago.

mi

OK, all right, then the CPU are "undemanding" games, very good, then really like to upgrade the graphics card, so you can put the details up nicely!

un

Joa, with csgo but rather the CPU is claimed.

Br

The 1060 is weaker xD

For 200 you get a RX 590

un

Is it worth the upgrade kit in 1 year?

Ma

How is that? What kind of CPU do you have, please do not come with Intel Core I5 because I know exactly what else is slowing down the typical Sparcpu Intel sold the expensive. THE RX580 IS FASTER than the 1060

Ma

Ah, the 580 slows down your CPU.

Hmm let's see what you have a CPU you have:

FX8320 = Old waste with a capacity of one kanpp 10 years i3 performance! Already from release on scrap.

1060 is slower than RX580

144hz you can forget so and so if you can't make a PC with this CPU with the 1060 or rx580 so and so because the CPU is more than bad for gaming.

Get a Ryzen 2600 + B450+ 16gb Ram

Ma

Nope

mi

The upgrade KIT is so good that you can play all games in the next 5 years.

But if you save only 1 year, then ask again, because until then there are the Rzyen 3600, which are even faster than Rzyen 2600.

Ma

Yes, yes I know it anyway! That's enough!

mi

That you know it, I was of course aware, I just wanted to make sure that the questioner (Mzsterioeser) knows.
