exactly the 1060 got a lower score but somehow wins??

c4tgfd (07:05 PM, December 18, 2018)

Please don't even think about buying a single fan graphics card in 2018. For rendering, photoshop etc get the 1060 if you have the money to spare, but games will look a lot better on the 580. Your choice

because radeon was better for mining but those prices are declining now - on my country the quality 1060 + 6gb RAM are a little bit expensive than Saphire Nitro+ 580 which is the topmost of 580's about 1060 the 3GB variant (this is the `not-so-responsive` 6gb variant - they do not trow non-responsive 6gb mem chips - they test them to see if they can match that 3gb silicon lottery and if they pass the test they will arrive in stores as 1060 - 3gb variant ) if I'll buy one it will be this one (No 3gb RAM or MSI stuff) : https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gigabyte-GV-N1060AORUS-GeForce-Express-Graphics/dp/B073XGGBDL/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1541964774&sr=8-1&keywords=GIGABYTE+GV-N1060AORUS-6GD+REV2.0

Guest (10:36 AM, November 11, 2018)

... he may be blind but you are a dreamer for sure - where did you get your prices ? - show me an 1060 chaper than 580 and I will buy that card.

Just ME Onlyme (08:10 PM, October 17, 2018)

I am so confused. First I read the scores on top: RX 580 8GB - 7.2/10 GTX 1060 6GB - 6.4/10 BUT the 1060 wins? And a 1050 Ti beats a 1060 ..... WHAT? WHAT? When did Video Cards start a benchmark FACE DETECTION? Why is there no score " n/a " for the " Gaming " Category? How could you post a review without doing the 'review'. This review is incomplete. WHY POST IT!? There needs to be staff changes in management for this website. STAY OUT OF THE BUSINESS.

Inefficient design calls for increased power throughput while pumping next to near performance to comparison.

Bruno Martins (05:11 PM, August 8, 2018)

I Never buy NVIDIA agains, each drive update the card lost performace, when GTX 1050TI ARRIVE THE MARKET it´s 10 fps less gtx 960 4gb, now the GTX 960 4GB LESS THAN 10 FPS FOR GTX 960 4GB

Maja Mielewska (06:01 PM, April 22, 2018)

Better floating-point performance 6,175 GFLOPS vs 3,953 GFLOPS More than 55% better floating-point performance this is why I buy rx 580 and cross fire at hand .

Reliphyte (03:50 PM, February 25, 2018)

The reason why the 1060 wins is because the under the Gaming section the RX 480 must have crashed or frozen during the benchmark, therefore no score.

AnimetiC Land (06:27 PM, December 28, 2017)

This site is shit. RX 580 is way better. The only loss is TDP...

The 3gb version can't really even be called a 1060, and if you wanted to you would have to change the 1060 6gb to the 1060 Ti for it to work like that

PepitoManhattan (02:28 PM, November 28, 2017)

this posts are comparing the 6gb 1060 and the 8gb 580 so...
