I just love how small it is and how good it looks 😉

My old GPU died last week and I have been holding out for the GTX 1060 SC version. I really hope stock level increases soon, I am not sure I can hold out with my IGPU much longer.

Absolutely loving my GTX 1060 SC, overclocks so well I'm scared... speaking of scared... what max temps for card health should i try and stick to... I was playing "The Division" on all ultra settings at 1080p and pegged 60fps without a hitch(vsync on).  Excellent experience overall, I was running with the details below, probably 78 degrees F in the room.  I did notice the temps get up to like 72 degrees Celsius with close to 100% fan speed.  
 

 
Appreciate any information and thanks for such a great card!




Isnt it loud at 100% fan speed? Or are you ok with the noise?




Sort of... I mean, I have a well insulated case and at 100% if i have the TV on and I'm gaming, i honestly hardly notice it.  But if I was on a call and no other noises were going on, i'd lower it to 70%... at 70% it's inaudible over my case/cpu fans.  Actually very pleased with the quietness of the card.  Still looking for safe max temps though! ;)

Still no answer as to why there is no SLI capability on the 1060.   Im not interested in the card, but I know somebody who was.  Till they learned that there was no SLI ability.

Nvidia stated that they were reserving SLI for their enthusiast lineup that it was generally the enthusiast segment that SLIed. I however believe it was so that they could secure more sales of their top end offerings that have a larger profit margin. A SLI pair of 1060's for example could potentially compete with their flagship 1080 for possibly less $.

Got mine on Friday and its been great so far. Only been playing GTA V but got settings up on high and very high with v sync on and its pretty much stable 60fps, just the occasional drop every now and then.

The card is very cool and quiet, reaches up around 60C during gaming but I adjusted the fan curve so the fan comes on at 50c. The default seems to keep the fan off below 60C which means it keeps stopping and starting which although silent I didn't like the idea, would rather have it running at a low speed during gaming.

But very happy, small, powerful card, doesn't even make the fan spin up on my PSU and the card is really quiet, no coil whine, you can't even tell I added a GPU to my PC without looking.

I'm envious of everyone who can actually buy one. The card basically doesn't exist in Canada.

When are they supposed to be in stock in Europe? I really want to buy it since I can hardly play anything with my old card.
