Harry 68, If I'm not mistaken your bios do not have the new 0% idle fan update. The number version is the same as mine. Only if you want to update they send a zip file to your e-mail.

@robles, you are wrong, see the screen, Fan speed are 0% with Bios Version 86.06.27.00.60, this are gtx1060sc 6GB

Got it. I assumed that because yesterday I've contacted the EVGA support ticket regarding the firmware, and I was told that my model didn't come with the update. Mine is also a gtx1060sc 6GB

my 1060 sc card has 0% fan speed when idle so I dont need this update ? the purchase from like two weeks

Hi guys,
 
As I know from when I bought it, there are two "options". You need to write to EVGA support requesting one of these:
- BIOS with 0% fan feature.
- BIOS with fan always on (with a minimum of 20% speed).
 
Simply write then with your exact P/N number and ask about the desired option (0% or not 0%).

Pacificador, is there a difference for the card temperature between these two choices?

Hmmmmm not really sure, with 0% maybe it was at 50-52ºC aprox (The funs turn on when 60ºC are reached). Don't remember so well. And with 20% maybe 45-47ºC. I have it on 32% at 42ºC (With custom curve), but I prefer the 20% BIOS to avoid fan starting and stoping many times, which I consider would reduce its life or sound quality (fan life). Oh, maybe I should mention that my temperatures were those because my GPU is always running at a minimum of 1607mhz, but I have read it runs at 200mhz only when idling, so temps should be lot of lower than mines.

Just received this card yesterday from Amazon and it apparently has the 0db BIOS. The fan goes to 0% unless I manually set it to run in the Precision software. I don't like the cold start/stop of the fan since it may affect fan life. I would rather have the fan constant at low rpm than start/stop,start/stop. Would rather have the older BIOS since the Precision tool makes my Logitech software crash. Going to write support and try to get other BIOS before I send this thing back
