Finally my request is heard
Mine too!
Not mine yet
Ayyy
Before I got my 3060 I had this GPU, to this day the 1060 3GB still impresses me
u think i can buy it off u
@@ReIicz I upgraded to a 3060 because my 1060 broke, so no can't really sell it to you as it's defective now.

You guys obviously don’t know what it’s like to have fast performance and visuals. It doesn’t need to be expensive, and it sure isn’t a 3gb card
I've been watching you for a while now, your videos are always amazing and it helps me gain knowledge!
Thank you , love your content. Helpful. Please keep going!
Finally after years and years you made a video about my gpu ive been waiting for this moment for decades thank you
I was ready to write exactly the same thing. I just thought to myself "the time has finally come... Chris P. has made a video about my GPU
Bro the happines i got when my parents finally bought me a gtx 1060 3gb after using a gt220 for a year playing gta 5 with lowest graphics 25fps but i still appreciate the gt220 for giving me a good time
Dude same I was using a r7 250 2gb until 4 years ago when my dad bought me a 1060 3gb it felt like a dream but 3 months ago i bought rx 6600 love to see how my old gpu is doing in the other recent titles thanks to kryzzp
I never thought my card would be tested, and here we are. It is being tested! Thank you.

I love that u appreciate all kinds of GPUs
The video i have been waiting for bro its my gpu and am glad you made this video.
I just love it, when you make these videos with punch of games to test..
During the crypto storm this card was pretty much the only card at msrp where I live due to the dag size not fitting the vram. The vram limitation was the factor that saved the card from a hard life of slave mining.
Indeed, I bought mine during the mining fever due to being the only mid-end GPU available at MSRP or below; suffice to say, the 6GB version didn't escape the claws of miners/scalpers.
i got mine during mining fever aswell but since i run fast quadchannel ram on x99 i get almost no stutter going over the 3gb by 5gbs in some games
Good work mate. I hope to see a review on rx 580 in future.
I've been waiting for a 1060 3GB review for while, I was thinking of getting one :)
FINALLY! , i was waiting for this moment
That’s my exact 1060 3gb model that I have 😂 had it for 5 years and it still does great!
Still usable, but the 6GB cards have aged so much more gracefully, in many modern games having at least 50 percent higher 1% low and in some cases even twice as high numbers.
well yeah the 3g card wasnt a card you buy for futur proof but more like a card you upgrade in 1 or 2 gen,so many games uses above 5gig vram some games use 7 at 1080p
thank god back then I bought rx 580 4gb instead of this when I didn't know about it.
at least it was a 580 with 4gb less vram instead of another card entirely! not to mention it did aged better than 1060.
@@ogaimon3380 quadchannel ram on some retarded x99 giga motherboard and the ram is faster than vram

Sunday video my favorite video series 👌
i remember when you made the gtx 570 haha, surprising that i went back to the video and i can see that it still has such good performance
Very nice test Crisp. You are Bro.
Call back the Diji moon 😗
Surprising that even 3GB 1060 is holding up quite well although the low VRAM is being kinda pushed on the verge of too far. If the 3GB can do this well in 2022, 6GB 1060 users will be happy to know that their regular 6GB cards can still do fine.
Bet their 6gb 1060 can last for decades!

i have asked for this for ages. YOUR A LEGEND
Gtx 1060 is legendary. It runs games still very well
thanks for this! will get one today for 30 bucks, still with box, cd etc and pretty decent condition
I got my first built in 2017 and i had gone with a MSI gtx 1060 3gb. that card was what i used up until 2021. I upgraded to a 3060ti Founders Edition. That 1060 completely did everything i ever wanted including vr. It wasn’t perfect for vr that why i did eventually upgrade, but a super awesome card for sure. i wish i kept it around :/z
amazing video dude ! can you do a full video on the rtx 3060 ti benchmarking warzone 2 since its one of the more harder games to run ? that'd be very much appreciated
this guy is a really good entertainer as well, i just watched the whole video without realising it was 30mins long lol
1060 3GB here in an old machine and still absolutely flying for what it is 🥳
Hey Kryzzp, just a heads up when it comes to fortnite testing. Something I did for my system that helped out with stuttering a lot was going to nvidia control panel and setting the shader cache to 100 gigs or unlimited if you want to. Really cut down the stutters and it’s way more enjoyable now.
Making my Sunday 😊
dude, I just realized you updated this video on the same day I got the gpu
Thanks.. very very helpful
still a decent card thanks for the video!
i would like to see you testing my card rtx 3070 ti in the future
Not bad of a GPU, best to get the 6GB Module for the best. can't wait for more gpu test in the future. waiting for the gtx 1070 (non ti module)
i love your videos, can u make a video where u test different gpus in crysis?
Nice i was expecting this video 😊
I'm an user of this card and it's exceptional 🤩.
Thanks for bringing it's review ❤️
U would be better off finding a used rx 580 to upgrade the 8gbs of vram would really help smooth out your experience, I snagged a rx 6800 on a sale and the 16gbs of vram is one hell of a jump in smoothness, compared to what I had back in the day.
@@mrhappy8966 i don't think a rx 580 is worth when you already hve a 1060 because you might as well upgrade to like a 6600
@@mrhappy8966 I mean, might as well go for RX6700XT. They aren't very expensive and will be an astronomical improvement.
@@varungupta8241 U have a valid point there as well very good card probly twice the speed of a 580.
The graphics card is horrible ha
found one today brand new, for 50 dlls! i hope it runs decenty on my games! thanks for the video :)
Just upgraded to a 3070Ti from my 1060 6gb. Also now have 32bg ram instead of 8, which was mainly causing the issues. the 1060 has been my best value card since the gtx780 imo. its had its time and exceeded expectations! Cyberpunk's min requirements is a 1060 6gb, so the sun is setting on the card, but its been a blast
I love how you test GTA. please don't stop :)
Still using mine as I write this, Win 11 will never take me alive LOL [yes I've all kinds of 3rd party defences, and so should you whatever OS you're running ty!]
Seriously OP, you illustrated brilliantly that only the latest games from 2020 onwards will cause it any trouble on high/max settings and would probably run the latest DX drivers if MS hadn't OS locked it behind Win 11; Yes, there would be sacrifices, but it's still enjoyable, and in older games 2010-2018 it's perfectly valid, it really depends on what you use it for, and your title selection illustrates that perfectly.
I came close to upgrading for Cyberpunk, but glad i didn't from the state of that game at launch, but there's a couple titles coming up that will probably squeeze a few $000's out of me.
Great video! thanks!
Justo la placa de video que está en mi mira gracias por el video lo necesitaba urgente ayer fue mi cumpleaños y me dieron dinero para comprar mi tarjeta gráfica , saludos desde Paraguay ✨💗
I remember when I finally decided to get a decent GPU for my PC(jumped from a gtx 750ti that I used for about 2 years) and in 2017 for some reason the 3gb USED was going for 120$ where as the 1060 6gb would be upwards of 200$ and given the price difference I opted for 3GB, served me well up until this summer actually when the 3060 finally reached a decent price and got a brand new one for like 400$ which was a pretty decent bearable price but the 1060 3g will forever remain as a beast in my book despite the vram limitation.
2017 processor will bottleneck 3060
the gtx 1000 series gpus have aged really good! im currently on an 1060 3gb card that i boughtnew back in 2017 i believe it was, i later down the line upgraded it, but becouse the 2060 super i had broke down, and gpu prices went skyhigh, then ive stuck to my 1060 for a little longer then planned. and for the fortnite part there, i recommend people playing it on performance mode with everything put to low except the distance, then you will get good frames :)
One of my favourite benchmark channels! Just upgraded from 1060 3gb to a 5700 xt going to miss my 1060 but the extra vram helps out so much.
How much fps do you get on GTA V?

Pascal is legendary. GTX 1060 and above have aged so well. Running an OC'd Gigabyte Xtreme gaming 1070 paired with an i9 9900K, never dropping below 60 high-max @1080p.
the 10 series is legendary, it'll be around for a while yet
I had the _msi gtx970 gaming oc_ since early 2015. I bought that brand new for 299€, played on 720p@60hz maxing out every game until 2017 when i upgraded to 1080p@60hz. The 1060-3gb performs similar and both of these cards are still good if youre happy with low quality settings everywhere... But i had enough, my gtx970 served me well, still working and with just a repaste i had a placeholder GPU on my new r7-5800x system in the last years of lockdown... But now i'm with my 1st Red team GPU in my new all AMD build finally completed: i've choosen the _XFX Merc Black rx6750xt_ brand new for 599€ in June 2022 (when used cheap custom 3070 was around 700€). After few months of undervolt+overclock testing i have reached a stable global oc and i now match the 3070ti in games with overclocked 3070 scores in benchs (1080p@144hz + 1440p@144hz).
I was tired of worring about vRAM, and an 8gb card in 2022 was not Ideal for me that i keep cards as long as i can 😎
I wanted a 3070 but i have a better card, i hope It will last. I don't use RT cause it doesn't add anything to the gameplay, so i only care about raster3D. Honestly impressed with the performance of rdna2 ❤️
Oh can't wait to see you benchmark the 7900xtx and 7900xt. Hopefully it'll be today
The 3gb 1060 will always be a card i will recommend people on a budget. Played all the way through cyberpunk 2077 on that thing and it was super smooth the entire time even though it wasn't always 60fps. But im fairly certain i remember the 3gb 1060 performing better on earlier versions of Cyberpunk I remember getting 40-50 most of the time in the city areas Same with RDR2 played through that on launch with the 1060 3gb. It may not get 60fps in alot of games but it sure does give me you a half decent experience in most games. I have a 2080 ti now But my old 1060 is sitting on a shelf above my pc. Damn good card
ambatukam 😣😣😣
Oh man, my card! I use it on the second system as 4k display adapter and 4k h265 stream decoder from PC with rtx 3080 (Nvidia gamestream - moonlight)
Would love to see a long video on Windows 11 optimisations for gaming
Hey kryzzp! Amazing video dude I wanted to ask you wether you will try the new hello neighbour 2 game on your benchmarks? That game looks much better as compared to the original one.
We need Digimon to join you on more Sunday videos!
Gtx Series a Beast... That was also around the time when I wanted to build a I5-8600k + Gtx 1070ti but had no money....
Fast forward to the future in 2021, I finally got enough money then build a Ryzen 5 5600x + Rtx 3070ti :)
I still have my 1060 gtx 6gig and still doing well. I did download a program called lossless scaling which is a fsr/dlss type program. It actually does really well.
Hey Kryzzp I was wondering do you use msi afterburner and how do you get the on screen display to look that nice I cant figure it out? Also your videos of benchmarking are by far the best out there!
It's so impressive how well the fps are on Apex that game got good graphics imo but still gives good fps I guess it's very well optimized unless warzone
Calma lá, és tuga e não dizes nada à gente?!
Excelente trabalho mano, o teu conteúdo é super útil!
Hey kryzzp do you need to verify the integrity of steam games after updating or downloading?
Awesome GPU the Rx580 8GB ….. still to this day 😳😱🤯✊💪💪. The new Unreal engine plays quite well on this GPU which is great to see! Respect to AMD for creating and still supporting this amazing lil GPU 🤤💪✊. Great video Kryzzp…….. btw, the uzi joke ….. umm…… glad to see you’re an awesome benchmarker 😂🤣😅👍🥰😇
Hey Wormz big fan here, just wanted to know if you've heard of the mclassic. I was using one during the gpu crisis and you may see some fidelity with it. Its an upscaler, works best for 720p upscaled to 1440p. Thought it would be worth a shot and interesting
Interesting! Never heard of it, I'll search about it :)
would love to see that in a fiew months when the next big titles come out with the rtx 2060. Because atm its pretty much a perfect budget 1080P GPU for high-mid settings 60FPS. But i wonder how it will keep up the next game area. So next year, maybe christmas or summer would be nice to see the rtx 2060
GTX 1060 or really any GTX 10 series card will be dead honestly by 2023…
Architecture is getting too old.
Like you said, RTX 2060 will be the new budget entry 1080p GPU…
I’d recommend at least an RTX 2070 Super tho for a a decent experience at 1080p for these next gen only games in 2023.
But for a very good experience at 1080p instead of just decent?
Probably the 3060Ti will be that for next-gen only games.

@@itzcentauri6769 personally I would jump to RTX 2060. Similar performances but you have DLSS and Ray Tracing in games that support it.

I bought this exact gpu 2 months ago for like 30$ so im really glad for it, cause it is still good, especially for mc etc
How did u get it for 30$
just upgraded from this to a 6600 after almost 6 years of use, but only because I was getting for very cheap. Still quite a decent card otherwise, might throw it into another build of my old parts.
hey man, I want to ask something, you have so many gpu's in you, after the test what do you do with them?
Didn't expect it to be that good for being so old!
1060 is a legend!
I remember that I was going to get one back in 2016. Ended up with an used 780 Ti instead and it was a good choice back then.
Love your videos, Kryzzp! Btw, how much do you spend on reinstalling video drivers?
Thanks!
About 10 minutes
will you do spiderman miles morales 1060 6gb with with graphics on high and low weather please ? or medium settings with high textures and low weather
Just upgraded to a 3060ti from 1060 ( dead after 6 years😢) served me well and was a beast
what software did you use to capture fps?
Wow, did not expect that kind of performance from the 1060 even 3GB Model. Hope my 1060 6GB will hold a bit till i finally can buy myself a 2060 or even 3060.
I went from a GTX 1060 3G to an RX 6600 XT and I'm super happy. More than 35% faster than the RTX 3060 and I got it for $250 new on black Friday.

@@T4eOne No issues with software yet. AMD Catalyst is way easier and nicer to use than the Nvidia control panel. Will update if I start having issues
Hey kryzzp im gonna pick this card up but my i5 3rd is gonns bottleneck it i was considering an i3 8100. Im looking for this level of performance should i pick the i3 up?
Kryzzp you can actually play Spider-Man Miles Morales with 40-60 fps with high textures with IGTI Ultra Quality enabled. It looks less shimmery than AMD FSR in my experience. Just put traffic density, crowd density and weather particle quality to low. Hair quality can also be put to low for a bit more fps in cutscenes but it really doesn't help that much so I keep it on high and get 30 fps in cutscenes where hair is visible for characters. You have a better cpu and psu than mine so it should run even better for you I think. I just really love spider-man games so I gave my two cents. I've finished both games twice hehe.
waiting for your new intel build for testing ❤️
Anyway, great benchmark as always, krizzp
Thanks mate!
i have the 1060 3g msi but i kinda struggle with it in heavy games, but in small games its amazing, still want to upgrade to an rx 6600
RX 6600 is amazing. You will feel like you switched from horse to Ferrari once you got the card and running games

I still have one but I upgraded to the rx5600xt. I may throw it in another build it still gamed decent except for the vram in some games
gtx 1060 3gb defo decent for games still
I bought it for a 40 dollars 4 months ago it's pretty awesome price for the performance
Hey man, could you test sonic frontiers in the next video?
I play in VR with this graphic card, so it definitely holds up.
It’s the definition of minimum, but I recently replayed Half Life Alyx on it and it ran fine, although I manually reduced the texture quality significantly to avoid bottlenecks with the VRAM.
Hey I also played HL:A with this card!
I did have to play about 45% res scaling though, and also during the Jeff chapter I had to drop it to 25% for the physics to work correctly 😅
Apparently source 2 and VR tracking aren't great at sub-30 FPS, even though I myself could stomach it.
My girlfriends kid is running the 1060 3gb with his oculus works good but he needs more system vram
@@ryanvtec3885 Yeah, the 1060 3GB lacks VRAM and it shows sometimes. Reducing the texture resolution can help reducing the performance impact, but it’s not a fix. I was thinking of upgrading to a 3050 for the improvement in performance and the higher VRAM.
@@ryanvtec3885 Yeah, it's playable, just not ideal.
add Elden Ring to all your benchmark vids bro. its very popular game and triple A we want to see how gpu does on it
hey kryzp big fan, do you think you'll ever do benchmarks with different CPUs. I mean they'd be centered around graphic cards but you can use appropriate CPUs with them. CPUs that people who buy those cards are most likely to have, so like have a i5 4th gen for 1060 -3gb or rx 560
That's CPU benchmarking, in that case it's better to test with a high end GPU to see what the CPU is capable of.
An adequate CPU that doesn't bottleneck the GPU I'm testing will get the same FPS as my system, because the GPU is the bottleneck of performance
Best information for me.
My vídeo card! Plus my ryzen 5 5500= lot of fun!
This was my dream gpu too back then!
please reply to me does my psu corsair cx430m can handle gtx 1060 6gb?
Bought an Rx 560 4gb cus I was short on cash otherwise the 1060 was and still is my go to card for budget 1080p 60 high graphics gaming, I intend to buy it as soon as I can
I had this thing for the last 5 years, but I've finally upgraded to the RX 6600. The 1060 served me well but damn it was getting bad.
@FonFon I have a 1060 3gb no OC with Ryzen 2600 built in 2018. Old games like CSGO, the sims etc play great. Newer games like A Plague Tale: Requiem can't even run smoothly at lowest settings. MW19 played pretty great at launch but over time bad internet plus endless 50gb updates made the game unplayble.
U had 3gb or 6gb variant? I was upgrading my friends PC today (r3 2200g to r5 5500 + ram upgrade), but his GPU (1060 6gb) remains the same for next couple of months. I tested it and was quite surprised - all games are playable in 1080p, even new AAA titles run perfectly fine on medium settings (with FSR ON, of course)

What VGA Are You Use For Editing This Video?
That's my model that I own!!! Thank you
A good choice if found cheaply. They are slightly more expensive than GTX 970s. They are neck-and-neck... go for whichever is cheaper.
Also... I felt this video was a bit rushed. O felt it lacked of other Sunday videos. The transitions felt quicker than usual, and GPU-Z wasn't shown. It might seem minor and nitpicky, but as a long-time watcher I felt it.
I assume the rushness I feel is because of the Portugal World Cup match lol. Shame to see! Maybe next time.
what program do you use to see the fps
Hi ! I am very concerned because I own a 1060 6GB and my games doesn't run that well :( I have a r5 2600 cpu btw. How did u configure your Nvidia settings and w10 maybe ?
nice video for gtx 1060 3gb :)
