Even though after going through so many sites i still fail to get my required answer.As 6163 kr is an acx 2.0 card so some people say that only acx 3.0 cards are affected by VRM high temperatures is that true? And i know about the bios update that came ages ago..did the cards after 1 nov 2016 all came with thermal pading too or just the bios update..and how much did it solve the problem for the gtx 1060 sc as far as long term use is concerned? And i only have a local warranty of 10 months so can i still claim the international warranty from Pakistan after these 10 months. The questions that i asked haven't been answered properly yet so please take time to answer...

    As far as I know, the GTX 1060 model wasn't affected, it was the GTX 1080.
    Why do you 'go through many sites' instead of sending an email to the company to ask directly?
