The video memory at 3GB limits the GTX 1060 to 1920×1080 resolution
PrecisionX OC refused to launch for us after activation. We probably left overclocking performance on the table by setting our overclock manually by being unable to use the advanced overclocking features it offers
This has been an enjoyable exploration for us evaluating TV 4K gaming and we hope that our experience may help serve as a 4K TV PC gaming 2017 holiday guide for our readers. The very best 4K is experienced on a large display, and we would recommend a PC d...
Unlike the RX Vega 64 Liquid Cooled edition which fell quite short of its performance target of the GTX 1080 Ti and barely matched the GTX 1080, the RX Vega 56 is faster than the GTX 1070 FE. Using performance as our primary metric, at $399, the RX Vega 5...
Abstract: Last Monday, AMD released its new Vega 64 processor in a vain attempt to beat the GTX 1080 and to take the performance crown from NVIDIA's GTX 1080 Ti. Since the reference version throttles performance due to inadequate cooling, BTR purchased a Gigabyte R...

Abstract: It's been about six months since BTR compared the RX 480 versus the GTX 1060 and versus the 290X. It will be interesting to see if there have been any major performance changes since then. Has AMD neglected Hawaii in favor of Polaris, and what about Pasca...

VR movement still tough to handle, New content completed in only a few hours
Setting foot in Croft Manor is an enjoyable afternoon experience, doubly so if you're an early adopter of PlayStation VR. While not integral to the Tomb Raider story, there's something to celebrate if you've already waited this long for the complete exper...
This has been quite an interesting exploration for us in evaluating the overclocked $199 Red Devil RX 470 versus the overclocked $199 EVGA GTX 1060 3GB Gaming edition. The GTX 1060 3GB is a faster card at stock, and due to its superior headroom for overcl...

If you are buying a fast video card right now and looking for good performance for a better than entry-level VR or for maxed out 1920×1080, the EVGA GTX 1060 3GB is an excellent choice. The GTX 1060 beats its competition the reference or factory-overclock...
