I know it's not a 1080 but wow awesome card. Great frozer 2 cooling set up. I like the overclocking software and silent fan option so fans only run when the card heats up while playing a game or off and silent while browsing the internet. Also has a turbo cool you can click on to give the card a nice cooling boost to drop its temperature fast. Nice rgb lighting and you can sinc it with other msi products like the motherboard.

What I like :
- performance is good no issue so far
- I like the fact the fans don’t turn on until the GPU is being used
-cooling on this card is one of the best.
-pricing is finally back to “normal”
What I don’t like:
- card is heavy.. im worried my board will bend over time
- no warning that the fan wouldn’t turn on until full load
- wish it had an extra cable

Easy to install, looks pretty slick and runs games right out of the box. Stays cool under heavy load, did not experience any throttling. It may not run the latest games on Ultra setting but will run them well on Medium or even high. It runs older games (Borderlands) on ultra buttery smooth.

While normally this is a gaming card, it also works extremely well with Photoshop apps, and has been speedy and stable. Just be aware that it is BIG and HEAVY, so make sure there is room in your case!

I went from a Radeon 290 to this, and the difference was amazing! Finally, I can play all of my games with the graphics turned up all the way. Of course, this is only the 1060. It's great for current games. If you're looking for something more hi-range, and playing in 4K or VR (I'm on a 1440p monitor, myself), I recommend the 1080 (but don't get the 2080 yet...it has a LOT of issues).

Easy Install

First, I do not use this for gaming. This is a heavy board so be prepared to follow install instructions carefully. This PCB was installed into a reinforced card slot as most new MB's have so it does not flex the socket when inserted. Takes up two slot covers on case to secure. Easy to configure and high end graphics for all my heavy duty graphics editing work.

I already purchase some of these MSI GTX 1060 before and I had no issue with them so far. The cooling on these is top notch and can run 24hrs without issue or overheat. The only thing I didn't like is that I wish they would improve the mystic light software a bit. Other than that, the GTX 1060 GAMING X 6G is running fantastic.

I bought this graphic card to use with an AMD build. The card is performing pretty well so far. I can run most of my games on the highest graphic setting and experience NO screen tearing or other issues. I would purchase this again if needed.

Quiet fan, efficient operation. I use it for mining. For a 1060 it does well on it's own. Stock paste is good. Low temps. No upgrade to the fans necessary.

I had a video card I was trying to put into a new custom gaming PC, but it wasn't working. We needed the PC to do taxes on too though, so I RMA'd the card back to the online retailer and purchased this one locally. It's been an awesome, trouble-free card for the mundane to the insane. Great performance for graphics and the fans don't even run when doing book keeping, email, etc. My only regret is that I couldn't have waited another month since the price dropped $100.

My son’s video card went out. I almost got the same one but this one was 20 bucks more and 5 times better! Very happy. Had it for over a month now
