What this all really shows us is that the ASUS STRIX custom design, engineering, and cooling greatly helps to make the GeForce GTX 1060 and AMD Radeon RX 480 competitive products. It also makes it so that performance is actually appealing on both GPUs due...
One thing I haven't talked about up to this point, but need to, is ASUS' GPU TweakII software tool. Similar to MSI's Afterburner or EVGA's Precision, GPU TweakII aims to be the ultimate GPU tweaking tool (as its name suggests), allowing users to monitor t...

Every review has to have a conclusion or final thoughts but at times we just wish we could go on testing a product for more than a week or two; that's the case with the ASUS Strix ROG GTX 1060 6GB. It's good to see a product that a larger group of people...

Overall, GeForce GTX 1060 follows a string of well executed NVIDIA launches throughout the Maxwell and now Pascal generations, and GTX 1060 is no different. NVIDIA has continued to focus on balancing performance with power consumption, and the end result...

There has rarely been a product easier to sum up than the ASUS GTX 1060 Strix.Performance is excellent. The GTX 1060 from nVidia was good, but the factory overclock on the Strix takes things to another level with gains to be had in every single benchmark...

One of the most powerful GTX 1060s available, Out-of-the-box overclock, Incredible cooling system with little noise
Expensive, Length of the card is long, meaning you'll need a big case ,
