I want the one that gives me the best performance at overclocking or Boost Clock / Base Clock / Memory Frequency.Also, and not very necessary, however i would love to know which one has best cooling system.I don't want to get a GTX 1060 6GB because, i saw at youtube only like 5-10 fps improvement which i dont want to invest.

The difference between 3gb and 6gb isnt higher fps
The extra memory allows it to load higher quality textures and 3gb just isnt enough (4gb is recommended now for ultra on most games)

When you run out of video memory the game starts using lower quality textures and that will happen a lot with only 3gb
If you are fine with lower quality textures then stick with the 3gb, but i recommend the 6gb

As for which of those 2 is better, the only difference is the cooling system, which asus does better, but the difference doesn't actually effect performance so either 1 is fine
May as well take the asus since its the same price
