    ….I am still waiting 1050 or 1050ti

    • Any day now, depending on the store.

    • +1

      I would not wait https://www.mwave.com.au/searchresult?w=gtx+1050 it is quite overpriced right now, this card is between 30% and 50% better, I do not think the 1050 will come down to a decent price for some months to make it worth the difference.

      235$ for a 1050 TI is not worth considering the price of this card right now.

  • good for Australian pricing, very neat

    I got the 6GB version and it's brilliant. My old 2GB GTX 960 ran out of memory way too easily, so I wouldn't get a 3GB card if I could help it because it's only 1GB more.

    • Yeah the 3gb version is less powerful outside of the ram as well though.

  • Should be able to max out BF1 on 1080p yeah?

    • +4

      I get 50 to 60fps at high at 1080p, got a i5 3470 and 8gb ram

      • Ah good, have pretty much the same specs.

        • +2

          It is worth noting that "High" is not maxing out, "Ultra" is. Just in case you're getting the wrong idea.

        • @2000voltz: Yeah, I can turn the AA down a bit and max up the other settings.

  • +7

    Great deal, thanks for posting OP. Found this article helpful in understanding the difference between this card and the 6GB version: http://www.gamersnexus.net/hwreviews/2604-gtx-1060-3gb-vs-6g…

  • Hi, I know it might be very dumb to ask, but what are these actually used for? Does it boost performance for video editing?
    I have a top speced laptop from 2013, but find that its a bit slow when video editing.. will this help.
    Thanks in advance!!

    • +1

      This definitely won't fit into your laptop. I'll let someone else answer the usage question i'm about to fall asleep

      • Ok thanks! I know it won't fit, but I heard you can get some adapter to put some sort of card to make it more powerful, and was wondering if it's the graphics card.
        Thanks!!

        • +4

          Yeah your talking about the alienware and Razer graphics accelerators. Atm they pretty close to being proprietary to their computers

    • +1

      You're probably looking for a desktop PC with i7 CPU, 32GB of RAM, and largish SSD, I think. Less than $1000, probably.

      This is a high-end gaming GPU, I don't think it actually encodes video much faster than much cheaper GPUs.

      • Oh, thanks

    • +2

      For video editing you should be more interested in the CPU (and RAM) than a graphics card. A high end graphics card may help a bit, but it'll never be a bottleneck.

      • Thanks will do some research.

      • I currently have i7 cpu and 12 gb ram. If I upgrade the ram I should get better video editing performance?
        Thanks.

        • +2

          An i7 and 12gb RAM should be plenty (depending on how demanding your work is). I don't know what laptop you have, but I think the best option is to get a desktop with a desktop grade i7.

        • +1

          @Benno123:i have the laptop connected to a monitor, because the screen was shattered, and i just took it off.

          specs:

          model: asus s550c
          ssd: Samsung 850 500gb
          cpu: inel(r) core(TM) i7-3537U cpu @2.00GHz 2.50 Ghz
          ram: 12 gb
          nvidia geforce 740m

          thank you all for your responses!!!!

      What are the specs of your laptop?

      Video cards do help in video editing but CPU plays more prominent role. (also depends on your application) I would suggest a 6 core i7 (such as 6800k) for video editing. If you are a professional, then you want something like Nvidia Quadro cards but those are expensive.

      Edit: For attaching an external video card to your laptop, you need a graphics amplifier. But that will only work if your laptop has a physical connection port for the amplifier.

      • Video cards do help in video editing

        How?

        • +1

          video cards accelerate the rendering of the video by sharing the CPU load. Programs like Adobe Premiere use Nvidia CUDA cores for for hardware acceleration.

        • +2

          @OldSchoolHarry:
          Im sorry to tell you but only a partial of it not even worth mentioning. If you check out linustechtip about this you will see. I work with adobe product ony daily basis to understand the pain. More cpu power is better. The only CUDA acceleration that you will get are some adobe built in effects only., especially colour correction.However when you are doing pro editing those built in just won't cut it. Most of the thing you will find yourself using are addon and well it cpu only

        • +1

          @hunterhalo: Thanks for the info. That's pretty much what I meant i.e video cards compliment the CPU in video editing (less in some applications, more in others). (refer to my original comment)

    I got one of these in the eBay click and collect deal last month.

    Just a word of warning - the fan on mine makes an annoying noise at low speeds. e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jx-VWENSZAc

    Basically the fan is touching one of the ribbons underneath it and making a sort of grinding noise. I took the card out and pushed the ribbons down to flatten it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lTGCzomZXs ) but it started making the noise again just today. I downloaded the Gigabyte Xtreme Gaming Engine tool and set the fans to a faster speed and that seems to have fixed it for now. Maybe try get a different brand if possible.

    • Good warning, those things irritate me, I usually tape or glue down the offensive cables.

  • +1

    If you need the extra RAM they also have a 6GB version that's down to about $347.20

    • Bought the 6GB one suggested by Jonc. Used cashrewards also.

  • Since this thread is here, would this card be the equivalent of a 480 and if so, which one is better?

    • +2

      iirc the 1060 by about 10% but 480 is better with directx 12 and vulkan

      • I've seen comparisons of the 480 with a 1070 so that's where my confusion springs from.

  • Any good deals on the 1070?

    EVGA one for $588 looks ok assuming it comes with GoW.

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/EVGA-nVidia-GeForce-GTX-1070-SC-G…

  • Can I use this graphics card alongside my Radeon HD 7780 in the same PC ?

    I currently have 2 HD 7780 and I want a new gfx for gaming purposes as I use 6 monitors (for work). Will there be any issues with drivers/functionality considering one is AMD and one is Nvidia?
