Once again I find myself blown away by Asus' latest Nividia GTX Strix Series Graphics Card. The Asus GeForce GTX 1060 Strix OC is (like it's bigger brother the 1070 Strix OC) one of the best GPU's on the market today thanks to that awesome DirectCU III c...

Abstract: TL;DW: RX 480 amazing value for money, especially in DX12/Vulkan. GTX 1060 great DX 12 card, decent value too. GTX 980 is still fantastic, but it's likely worth going for a 1060 if you are buying new. GTX 1070 is obviously fastest, but sufficiently low va...
Priced the wrong side of £300, Asus was always going to have to do a lot to impress us with this card. In fairness, there isn't much that the GTX 1060 Strix OC doesn't offer – it has a very high factory overclock applied to the core and the memory has bee...

OC model is too expensive, Larger than it needs to be for the TDP
Both GTX 1080 Strix and GTX 1070 Strix were excellent products and received KitGuru's top Must Have award, in many ways the STRIX GTX 1060 is a predictable conclusion since it uses the same cooling solution and overall design philosophy.ASUS offers the GT...
